Revisionism is fashionable. This devastating trend has been unleashed by some party organizations that pierce the pillars of this house of all as a moth. Proposing, for example, an ergonomic re-reading of recent history, and suggesting to the blue kaiku taumaturgic magical properties in the rebellion against the harsh Franco regime. Or in another environment, disregarding the fundamental foundations of the Basque nation and formulating a naive and incredible promise of the Basque state on paper, oriented towards what and to “live better”.
The ridiculous/unfortunate stories of the pre-election have dominated the public story, and the Basque storyteller does not know what to think about politicians and announcers who have become fantastic storytellers.
We are told that the progressive coalition in the Spanish Government is a window, and that the representatives of the Basque parties who come to it, both from one party and another, are repeatedly linked in agreements and votes with the members of the Spanish Government and ensure their continuity. In the meantime, however, the same governments and the same states are linking in eternal ice the basic laws and agreements of autonomy agreed half a century ago. Likewise, it freezes the free spirits and democratic liberating processes of its Catalan brothers of the police, judges and penalties. The same judges also freeze our Basque, while the language of the old Castile obliges us in our land in this twenty-first century. More terrible anachronics than the imposition here and now in Spanish!
In the public report there is a predominance of ridiculous/regrettable accounts of the pre-election, and the Basque politician does not know what to think
What advantages does this greeting window offer? When we ask this, our storytellers show us the ghost at the tip of the right, like in puppet theater. What do we have to think, then, that we Basques have to keep to the servitude of always complying with these rulers of that Spanish state, because otherwise, the deputy rulers are even worse? We have nothing easy!
The Basques are not for stories, and we have to look beyond elections. We must ensure that Euskal Herria is a full and organized democratic nation, that our politicians have to look closely in recent times, even if they have forgotten it and rejected it. We need active internationalization throughout the Basque Country, wide, long and deep. Because Basque nationality affects the core of our identity. And Basque internationalization is in a serious crisis. Because in the crisis, because of external factors, the two dominant states have accelerated the assimilation process, but also because of internal factors, because many Basque citizens actively or passively acknowledge this assimilation, exchanging their own identity. Moreover, because there is a progressive integration of parties and ex-nationalist organisations in the institutions and dynamics of the Spanish and French states. They also show the “theoretical justification” and legitimization of this conduct.
The stories and the subordinate tactical paths, the blind, the Basques have to awaken a renewed national work throughout the Basque Country. If what we have done so far has brought us to this situation, it is clear that we need new proposals, from theory to practice. The Basque nation needs a large-scale reorganization as a whole. List our forces, connect all those working for Basque internationalisation and cooperate. Complete the polysystem of Basque culture in all scientific, artistic, labor and administrative disciplines, with Basque as the central axis. We have started a new Basque internationalization, open and in the process of independent work.

We Basques move our feet behind the witness of Korrika to proclaim that we want to survive as a Basque people in favor of our language, with the aim of the Basque Country we desire.

And for another year, the unions have organized prefabricated strikes for us. And we, individually, will decide whether or not to join the strike, without the need for any assembly at the school.
The strike model that I was taught is no longer in vogue, it seems. In my... [+]
Life surrounds everything, it is limited and fragile. To live good lives, it seems to me that the body knows what to do, while the mind, although it knows (when it is well informed), often sees the body deliberately silence. In this silence the mind opens itself to relations... [+]
Eroso gaude ingurunea gure egoera fisiko/emozionalera egokitzen denean. Besteak ni kontuan hartu nauenean, izan gizaki bat, objektu bat, espazio bat. Erosotasunaren klabea produktu eta espazio diseinuan beharrizan handi gisa sartu da, erosotzat jotzen dena erosgarria delako... [+]

It is the habit of making decisions that will change our lives with the beginning of the new year. We make lists on three points: one, more sports practice; two, seeing old friends more often; three, going back to Iceland, real and metaphorically. As the months go by, we realize... [+]

Since Benito Lertxundi, who told us that he will leave the scenes for ever, we have been there for several weeks, and since then many of us have felt orphans in one way or another, with a sense of loss or abandonment, sad. To Iruindarro, at least, we will remain forever honored... [+]
There are three knots that complicate our coexistence in the Basques, and for many years, despite our patience and determination, we are unable to break free from these ties. There are at least three knots of the moment: prisoners, Basque, immigrants.
With the new year we are... [+]
Today, January 21, is a day to remember and reflect on an interesting ephemeris of our recent history. It is 50 years since the lockdown of 47 workers from Potase in Navarre. This lockdown, which lasted fifteen days, caused a general strike in Navarre, the Department of the... [+]
A couple of weeks ago, a number of data from Norway was published. In this country of Northern Europe electric cars have predominated, being the Tesla brand the most sold, with 90% of recyclable energy consumed there. On the contrary, Norwegian public enterprises have no problem... [+]

Today, the voices of women and children remain within a culture that delegitimizes their voices, silencing their experiences, within a system aimed at minimizing or ignoring their basic rights and needs. A media example of this problem is the case of Juana Rivas, but her story... [+]
