As the fall ends, the crows appear on Basque Day, in the Basque era or in the Durango Fair. Aware of the results of socio-linguistic surveys on the use of Euskera, the "politically corrective" exercise has no longer drawn anyone's attention. Without Ttattarri, with cool and smiling in the mouth, all show their support for the Basque Country and the Basque culture. Ha, ha, ha. They buy books of the year that they'll never read and make lifelong statements. “Basque culture is very important.”
But how important is it? You have to go to the heart of the challenge: all of that. How much does the money matter? Because here the agents of the Basque culture feed this very important culture hungry. The new Lanartea survey is based on the precariousness of cultural and creative actors, to the detriment of supply and accessibility.
The works created and produced in Basque, made impossible by the policies of the current administrations, cannot reach the majority of Basque citizenship. In our country, this organized and systematic discrimination would not be possible without the loophole of the political class. The desidia, the ignorance, the complex of the colonized, the lack of ambition, the acculturation -- I don't know what drives the continued cultural destruction that we live.
It is forbidden for our youth to develop Basque thought and sensibility, since the obligation that any system should promote is not guaranteed: a dignified cultural education that entails the capacity for emancipation. That's what squeezes my heart and my throat, not my trade. After all, I have chosen my trade, but my children have not chosen this situation. They are forced to flourish in a language that is not theirs and under models that are foreign to them, turning the Basque language into a foreign language and transferring the Basque culture to the status of "paleo-culture".
In our country, without the neglect of the political class, this organized and systematic discrimination would not be possible.
Vultures always come to enjoy the flesh of the body thanks to the crow. Currently, according to a study conducted by Stanford University, 60.76% of love encounters are performed online. I mean, most love stories are marketed. The model developed by these platforms is radically patriarchal and speaks Spanish or French. The intimacy of society has also been sold, in an economic way, so that we can open up and evolve in a language that forces us to internal exile. I speak of our children, their hearts, their souls, their lumps and their ovaries. The crows sold for the pleasure of vultures.
In the dance of the negotiation of the annual budgets, the Basque culture has not been a head of line; neither head of line, nor theme, surely. Although it is very important, because Basque culture is not really a subject. However, it would not be so expensive to guarantee the basic rights of our youth. By promoting simple things, you could turn the situation around in a decade.
Written in figures, every year, every child and every young person will be entitled to enjoy a couple of plays, a couple of books, a couple of records, a couple of movies, or a couple of bertsolaris performances, for their well-being and emancipation. Every week, a couple of poems to express love, outside the culture of the switch.
I do not know how and when we stand up to the deceit of the crows, but sooner or later we will be forced not to be the accomplices of the colonization of our brains and our hearts. Or yes. It's a matter of choice.

In February 2023, I read the news in the press and I was depressed because it surprised me and gave me what to think. The store of Jostaldi Kirolak Erdikale Street in Azpeitia will be closed to the public after 48 years of running.
That made me travel in time. I'd been there... [+]

When we woke up, culturally and administratively, the landscape showed a three-speed disaster.
As far as culture is concerned, I had the opportunity – once again – to confirm this last November 14 at the Mint library in Ortzaize. There we met because Eñaut Etxamendi... [+]
Snow hides the earth and the traces of beings looking for pleasure. Under the beauty of snow there is time, years, generations, ephemerides, quotations; but when time goes by there are words that have not been said before or after. Snow reminds us that we could slip and fall. As... [+]
The world has also done so, because it is a symbol, because in history more genocides have already been done and will be done (bad luck, hear, it has touched you to be born there), but Palestine has special characteristics:
They appeared, as usual, through the hut, parked in the center of the passage, in herbs and encharcations so as not to dirty the mills, and went through the road, tracing, to the porch, with a large dish in the hand. As usual, the bûche was ready. In French bûche it can be a... [+]
I've done a quick analysis of the technology forecasts for 2025. Like every year, when you talk about what technology is going to bring to the media in 2025, the discourse is very similar. Many of us who write about technology have the anxiety of knowing more than it's going to... [+]

On 26 December, during an air strike, the Israeli Army killed five Palestinian journalists trying to reach the city. They killed 130 Palestinian journalists. This news has reminded me of a couple of things, the first, the persecution of true journalists in any part of the world,... [+]

The girl who appears in the center of photography, which can hardly be considered historical, is writing a list of adjectives: I, you, he, we, you, they. Looking down, I couldn't see what his gaze looked like.
Insensitive to the work of the photographer, you, slowly and... [+]
