S. The reader can read Oleaga's interview with Jesús Rodríguez (in ARGIA) and listen to him (Hala Bedin, in Spanish), as a pre-conference snack. Here's a passage, for example:
"I defend a thesis: The world of right-wing independentism is the one that has undergone the most profound transformation in this process; it is the one that has had the most fragmentations, restructurings and ideological innovations. As the process deepens in independence and social transformation, some members of this classical bourgeois right have disappeared from the political direction of this space: Duran i Lleida, Felip Puig… are people of Convergence who have approached the Socialist Party, Citizens or the PP. This is very important, because sometimes the tests are based on the realities of ten years ago. This political space has experienced a total convulsion.
At the internal level, however, there are still different sensitivities. The political action of those in Brussels and in exile every day has more influence in Catalonia. With the electoral lists it has been found that the Puigdemont and Torra sector has imposed itself on the leaders and media responsible for the PDeCAT. Does that mean that the PDeCAT or Crida space has become more left-wing? I do not dare to say that, but I believe that repression has increased disobedient attitudes and reduced pactists. Many of the economic and political bridges with the state have been broken."
Both the Hala Bedi and ARGIA radio collaborate in different ways to perform journalism. Both are small and independent media, based on a strong community (Alubias and Clear People). These two media outlets have had to spend these weeks in the courts, only because each of them has done a successful job as a journalist. That is why, before the conference on Catalonia, a photo will be taken with the motto "journalism is not a crime", he explained. What are the two questions?
Hala journalist Bedi Mikel Saenz de Buruaga held the trial on 2 April for the recording of the police operation in May 2017 by the court of light at Errekaleor, in application of the Mordaza Law imposed on him by the Ertzaintza.
ARGIA journalist Lander Arbelaitz recorded in May 2018 a case of live violations of language rights in a video and spread the news. This video was basic for the Ertzaintza to publicly apologize to the members of the organization. On the contrary, the two Ertzainas have filed a complaint against the journalist before a criminal court. Over 400 journalists, social workers and citizens have called for the suspension of the trial in the Court of First Instance. Arbelaitz testified on 20 March and is now waiting for the judge's answer to see if there will be a trial.
The radio Hala Bedi and the Gaztetxe of Vitoria-Gasteiz organize once a month the concert "Muinoko hotsak". On this occasion all the stars have crossed and it will be April 5: Pelax and Bidelapurrak groups can be heard from 21:00 (entry for EUR 5).
2019 has been a special year for ARGIA, an example of this is this number that you have in your hands. Turning a hundred years is not an easy achievement, even more so for a small media outlet in Basque. The celebrations have taken different forms throughout this year and, as... [+]
On the day of the presentation of book 111 Hostoz eta Orriz we had the opportunity to learn about the culture of Duzunaritz. A delicious day to round off a series of celebrations that fill the century of Argia. I can't imagine a more beautiful path than to dirty the shoes in... [+]
