Discover Memories in Errekaleor, focused on the struggles of the recent past of the Basque Country

  • They will be held on Friday and Saturday in the occupied district of Errekaleor, in Vitoria-Gasteiz. It is about reinforcing the collective memory in order to nourish the struggles of the present and the future.

23 September 2020 - 14:20

Militants and popular movements will participate in the conference. On Friday, at 18:30 a.m., the talk of the association Ahaztuak 1936-1977 will begin. Then there will be an internationalist singing dinner, in which Euskal Telebista will analyze the present day.

On Saturday at 10:00 the activities will resume with the talk "various fighting routes from personal stories". At 13:00, Bilgune Feminist will take the floor to share the feminist analysis of repression. At 18:30 in the afternoon, Josetxo Otegi and Iñaki Gil de San Vicente will take the floor to discuss ways of fighting the national liberation movements. In the district you will be able to sleep in the same neighborhood, and there will be childcare and translation services for the children.

The organizers have explained that the conference aims to collectively enhance their own memory. “They want us in permanent amnesia,” they say, “so that we don’t make our lessons from the past.” They consider that the report of the past is an important instrument for the construction of the society of the present and the future, and that, consequently, the confrontation between stories is constant. In this confrontation, power tries, on the one hand, to impose its story “at all costs. From the education system to the current series, movies and songs.” On the other hand, it tries to chain alternative accounts, such as “future weapon” and “refuge from new forms of interlocution in reality”. “A people without memory ceases to be a people,” they warned.
