Cover memory
When I was ten years old, a more mature kid would lead to continued abuse. When I saw her with my friends, I was shocked. But debalde, he said “I’m going for her” to her friends and came behind. I was running, but I was rushing right away. He took me from behind and squeezed me very hard by saying, “Like yelling…”. I didn't need to say anything else. Then I played my whole body on the wall, I put my head down holding my legs… Sheltered from the fear I created among friends, from their power, I acted with total impunity. Now I feel all these actions as torture.
The relationships of a ten-year-old child with sexuality are usually the ones he has with the exploration of his or her sex, or the ones he or she shares with his or her friends in the environment along that path. At that age, I felt dirty, ashamed, I thought it was my fault, I slept silently at night. I was very physically and psychologically oppressed. To change the situation I built the way to escape – I have to be faster than her, so she won’t catch me. So I did. To exercise, I ran and climbed two on the stairs in every place. I managed to climb the ladder all the way, my executioner got tired and I was able to escape the circumstances.
This is the story of a persecution that is the reflection of the environment. In one way or another many people have experienced a similar episode, the form will not be the same but the body of power is the same
I feel like I had become quieter, my eyes had become sad, my nightmares were growing, always the same when I fell asleep, fleeing from someone and I couldn't move my legs. That bad thing was my secret, I couldn't tell; at first out of fear, then out of shame, then "Well, it's been a long time..." With this burden I have had to build the sexuality and love that I have for myself; all this has been very heavy.
There are many ways of overcoming pain, which must be understood or not respected. And I understood that it is the ten-year-old girl who is writing here today, that it is also the woman of tomorrow who is here today, that today I am no more courageous than yesterday and that at the moment she has given me an opportunity to look inside, that she has been in mine, that as the experiences have been accumulating, the solutions have been transformed and that I am proud to have made the decision to run, that the revolution started since the first.
This is the story of a persecution that is the reflection of the environment. In one way or another many people have experienced a similar episode, the form will not be the same, but the body of power is the same.

I received your e-mail in personal mail on the strike portals. At first, like many others, I thought it was to let you know what options we have in the face of the strike. But no, the e-mail received was a political and communicative movement against the strike.

This weekend I've been thinking about the word 'aesthetic' in relation to a phrase said by a friend: “This work is aesthetic.” I have studied the etymology of the word aesthetic, it seems that its meaning was originally perceived through the senses, and it was later associated... [+]
The other day in Bilbao, I met a friend at the Bira bar. We were very happy at the Tar and I said: “Of course, since you’re Guipúzcoa, hahahaha.” And he insisted that he was not Guipuzcoan. Without me understanding it, I kept saying, “Ah! Is it not? You were born in New... [+]
