Two friends offered a small rap performance in the plaza and musutruk, after a simple popular meal. With a song, we were reminded that a neighbor, a young man, recently passed away. Money had to be raised to return the body to its hometown. Oh, that mother of mine! Your child's last kiss will rise in the coffin that still burns his cheek.

Beyond the kiosk, Paskual Abaroa sat, in a place of honor, on a plate that thanks the great local benefactor. My hairs polished me. We lowered the jacket hoses and pulled the cigarette out of the bag to drown in the throat marapyl. The sources of the people, inaugurated in 1888, continue to bleed. The eagle, like other “benefactors” praised in various localities, was enriched by the death, kidnapping, rape and sale of people. He didn't have to sweep his hands straight; as a banker, he was sure to be able to buy more than one valve to clean up his sins, while raising the money.

By the time this article comes to you, surely some of you have been able to see that sculpture. This year’s Antzar Eguna will have much more assistance to Lekeitio. Day 6 is a new holiday: Elcano eguna.

No one denies that Abaroa funded the people. Why economic power, if not political power and to improve the social image? At that time donations or donations were the only way forward; now it seems that some would like to recover this “old habit”. Ask, if not, Amancio Ortega: paying taxes as everyone does not give a separate status, it seems to make “gifts” to the people yes, and even if violations of rights are covered in other latitudes, in the countries of origin of our neighbours.

Similarly, no one denies what Elkano did three centuries earlier. No one demands to judge the current ones in the eyes of today, without historical and social context. In contrast, it is precisely those who criticise it that have deliberately decided to forget the context. History, unlike most, is not a mere evocation or knowledge of previous facts, but provides us with the keys to understanding the present and predicting the future. As in life itself, it prepares us for when everything we have learned comes.

But the uncritical version has been bought and sold in all institutions and organizations, with almost absolute consensus. What is the purpose of the empty and banal exaltation of “memorable” times? What is the point of repeating note to the songs of this colonizing empire? Winners to steal the collective history again, defeat the defeated of the equation, to bury the chain of expoliation and shackles of Africa and America, which has come very well since then. Responsibility for all truth cannot be ignored when it gives us the whim.

S and I, lined up in cheeks. Sirte Iure: a right. Different media over the centuries, but always the same result, both there and here. In the meantime, enjoy the delicious songs of gestesta that are once again forgotten from the forgotten ones of all time, without asking whether it can be a great deal of confrontation for all these Basque citizens. As was defended at the time, it is possible that our compatriots do not suffer damage, it is possible that their darker skin prevents sensations and that perhaps, in the background and within our interior, we do not recognize ourselves as among us in this hypothetical “host country”. It's possible.
