I teach Basque at a college in Lapurdi. Well, Euskera, and History/Geography. Yes, they name it without national labels (to give form of neutrality, you know, universality, etc. ), but French, French, French and French, which also looks at the vicissitudes of the world from the point of view of France, as is normal. Yes, it is Maquiabelico that the professors of a subject like this should be Euskaldunes, but for the French the design is round: In addition to promoting the dissemination of policy and ideology in favour of France, we thank you for letting us carry out the work of French in Basque.
I do not know, I do not know, but they say that in our country there are centres that teach (if possible) education from the perspective of the Basques. Well, from these lines my call is that I have a history lesson prepared with what a Basque needs to know to know, interpret and transform our reality. I can't tell the students, but maybe you?
"I have a history lesson prepared with what a Basque should know to know, interpret and transform our reality"
First of all, I would like to say that it is Euskal Herria, one of the peoples that popularize the world, that has the right to live freely in its territory by the mere fact of being so, and to govern itself without the interference of foreign powers from abroad. This is also called independence, which is what the right of self-determination recognizes a people: that it is in itself entitled to the freedom it needs in order to exercise sovereignty.
That this right is basic, both in international law which is considered the first of all fundamental rights and as a condition of others. Having a right does not mean that it cannot be violated, because it is precisely a threat of violation, which justifies the need to formulate a right, because if it is not violated it does not oppose a right, because there are no reasons. The people who activate self-determination, who always make the implicit denunciation of an imperialist attack, and in our case, of Spain and France against us.
That fundamental voting rights cannot be established, because of course they are not affected by the logic of minority majorities. It would be easy for a demographically larger people to legitimise the invasion against a more typical one, as it would be enough to organise a vote and win. No, even with the support of a majority, imperialism is always a crime, and always an undemocratic one. Because a regime does not give the label of democracy a majority, but respect for human rights.
That the people build the strongest political structures for defence, and that is what our people did, creating the highest organization Nabarra, the only one we have given ourselves freely. Ours, therefore, is not a stateless nation, because even if it is repealed, a state will not be extinguished, and that is why we owe it our accession. Because it is not the same to fight for a state of its own from a situation that has never been, that when you own a state. Lehendakari Aguirre also affirmed the continuity of our statehood and recognized it for strength, presenting his Government of Euzkadi as a link after the Historical Kingdom of Nabarra.
That it has the same value as a writing as a document owned by a house in the case of the occupied States, the confession that the incumbent people makes to that State. We must demonstrate to the international community that this is only our legitimate State, demonstrating that the conflict is between States with our conduct.
Let's see if you can, lucky!

In February 2023, I read the news in the press and I was depressed because it surprised me and gave me what to think. The store of Jostaldi Kirolak Erdikale Street in Azpeitia will be closed to the public after 48 years of running.
That made me travel in time. I'd been there... [+]

The world has also done so, because it is a symbol, because in history more genocides have already been done and will be done (bad luck, hear, it has touched you to be born there), but Palestine has special characteristics:
They appeared, as usual, through the hut, parked in the center of the passage, in herbs and encharcations so as not to dirty the mills, and went through the road, tracing, to the porch, with a large dish in the hand. As usual, the bûche was ready. In French bûche it can be a... [+]
As the fall ends, the crows appear on Basque Day, in the Basque era or in the Durango Fair. Aware of the results of socio-linguistic surveys on the use of Euskera, the "politically corrective" exercise has no longer drawn anyone's attention. Without Ttattarri, with cool and smiling... [+]
I've done a quick analysis of the technology forecasts for 2025. Like every year, when you talk about what technology is going to bring to the media in 2025, the discourse is very similar. Many of us who write about technology have the anxiety of knowing more than it's going to... [+]
