Presentation of the first issue of the paper edition of the independent in the Durango Fair


07 December 2023 - 11:14

Meeting the idea that comes from three years ago and materializing what we decided during the fasting we celebrated in July in Elosua, this year’s Durango Fair will take place from 7 to 10 December. In the tickets of this fair, several volunteers will be handed over by hand, willing to give a copy to anyone who wishes. In addition, a lot will be delivered to those who wish to distribute more copies in their village and surroundings.

Those who do not yet know the Independent will be able to obtain it on paper from December of this year, starting from the Durango Fair

Independent, the publication of popular journalism, has been working on digital support since 2020, in the context of the last declared pandemic. And that is, in that context, we saw that there was an obvious gap in the mainstream media in Euskera, and we created Independiente as a speaker to make our voice heard and facilitate communication between us that was not possible in the usual media. Over three years, it has been a tool for the penetration of many Basques, although it has also found many obstacles in its path. It has to be said that the Basque media has often been in the spotlight and, in this regard, the Independent has not been an exception, although the attacks did not come from where we thought. When it has not been through mere censorship by power and brutal repression, more informal harassment has often led the media in Basque to self-censorship, and has even been with Independiente who has tried to achieve it. However, despite the avatars, this small means of communication has persisted in its simplicity.

Now comes paper editing. With this significant step, the Independent is introduced in a tangible and physical manner in the history of our country. We invite every Basque reader to obtain a copy and then, if he wishes, to distribute it in his village, neighborhood, home or workplace. Those who do not yet know the Independent will be able to obtain it on paper from December of this year, from the Durango Fair. We want it to reach every corner of Euskal Herria, by hand, in a genuine self-managed auzolan, a special free copy.

People interested in participating in this initiative can write a message info@independentea.eus to e-mail or search them at the Azoka of Durango.

The essential thing is people.

We live in a context in which anti-feminist and racist hate speech at the global level is on the rise. Far-right narratives are inserted throughout the world by

Fog

Many times, after looking at the brumas from my house, it has occurred to me not to catch umbrellas, even though I know I will just soak up. Why will it be? Maybe you don't want to catch the umbrella? Maybe in the hope that I don't get wet? Nevertheless, the conclusion has always... [+]


To live in Basque, the Republic of Euskera

I remember when I was 16 years old, the Ertzaintza first identified me in a concentration in favor of the Basque Country before the Bergara courts. We believed that in Euskal Herria it was legitimate to cry for the Euskaldunization of the courts, but then there would also be a... [+]

When the thirst for profit chokes

The disaster caused by the cold drop in Valencia has left us dramatic images, both because of the immediate consequences it has had, and because the future awaiting us has brought us forward: that this type of extreme climate phenomena will be increasingly numerous and serious... [+]


We have argued against the Navarre Energy Plan that does not plan

The update of the Navarra Energy Plan goes unnoticed. The Government of Navarre made this public and, at the end of the period for the submission of claims, no government official has explained to us what their proposals are to the citizens.

Rusophobia before and now (II)

Name and existence of Umandi

Andoni Urrestarazu Landazabal was born in the village of Araia on 16 July 1902 and died in Vitoria on 21 November 1993. It is now 31 years old and I think it is time to recognize his name and be, because the legacy he left is not well known. Umandi used the name of a mountain in... [+]


Euskera with memory

Wager on the future

I have done a review from the announcement of the pandemic to the tragedy in Valencia and have concluded that the disastrous institutional management that lies and forupe as firewalls is constant of the ruling class.

Carriers also have to go to the service

November 19 is World Bathing Day. Even today, in the twenty-first century, many workers here in the Basque Country do not have the right to use the toilet in their working days. Many transport workers are an example of this.

Toilets are the key to public health and play a... [+]


Housing scam

The housing problem is a structural problem that comes from far away. What should be a human right is nothing more than a subjective right. I say that it is a fraud because, although all the institutions and all the political parties say nice words, they do not grasp the... [+]
