The future of txosnas

Pizzas made with local organic ingredients have been the most successful novelty of this year’s txosnas dinners. The two txosnas have jointly organized food preparation and while some were making pizzas at night, others have offered snacks. They've shared the benefits of cooking.

The txosnas have been opened not only at night but also day to offer breakfasts and organize a cultural offer for families. From the elderly, families, young people and children, the group of people in the enclosure is larger.

To ensure the presence of Euskera in all messages, consensus has been reached among all participants and initiatives for families and young people have been organized in Euskera. An equality paper has also been created to make the txosnagunea a safe space for all and to take steps towards gender equality in public space, in sports and cultural initiatives.

Some have made an energy contract with Goiener and the city hall is working on ideas to reduce the energy consumption of the area and gain autonomy, with young people studying this subject.

They are also thinking about how to offer a space to the new emigrants who have come to the people, to create a space that is a pleasure for all.

A young Navarro peasant Baxe asked me if in the tent of the Movimiento Joven, formed by Pepsi counters, there was no other way to finance our revolutionary organizations.

It could have been, but still our txosnagunea isn't. Although there has been a generational change in many comparsas, peñas and associations of the capitals, in others there are people with a lack of relay in the positions of responsibility and difficulties to obtain voluntary shifts. This calls into question the future of space and demands changes.

Since various institutions decided to implement txosnas on the town bank in the atmosphere of the Basque rock of the 1980s, from the periphery to the central space of the festivities, the txosnagas have traveled the way. But how do we build the alternative in the current centrality?

The sale or not of Red Bulla or the lack of card payment makes it difficult to imagine new models. In many places, however, txosnagas are the main focus of influence of transformative organizations. In addition, the need for economic resources to respond to repression has been reduced. This allows social and political txosnas to reinvent themselves.

Years ago, a young peasant farmer from Navarre Baxe asked me if in the tent of the Movimiento Joven, formed by Pepsi counters, there was no other way to finance our revolutionary organizations. In the north there are models. Perhaps the beginning of new paths will lead to a change, renewal and the necessary illusion.

What do the words 'look', 'understand' and 'person' mean?

Isn't it a sign of pride to look at the people in front of me as if they weren't people? Yes, of course yes. But how can we expect others to understand? Understand, observe, look. Does wanting to understand others not require this proud attitude? Knowing what it is to be a person,... [+]


Newspapers of genocide

They say it's been a year. I have never understood the arrogant habit that Westerners have: even if the conflict lasts almost a century, we adapt the dates to our liking, giving away the importance we want. Has the last era been different for the Palestinians who are imprisoned... [+]

Curiosity

I've been a teacher for 20 years and I've been teaching at all levels of High School, and today is the day I don't know what the teacher's role is.

In the long staircase of regulated education, each level has its own characteristics. In ESO, for example, good work habits and... [+]


The other side of October 12: reflections of resistance

It is no coincidence that Columbus Day, that of the Civil Guard and the Virgen del Pilar coincided on that date. The three represent oppressive structures (statue, army and church). On the other hand, there is indigenous resistance and population that the Spanish State... [+]


When we woke up on February 8, 2024, you were hugging the dinosaur.
There are people who "embrace" capitalism without realizing that the problem is in the same system; in the constant search for growth on a limited planet. All forms of intensive energy production are being swallowed up in the world.

Small peoples with life!

In how many excursions, outings or friendly walks have we heard that all the roads lead to Rome? Many times, and sometimes, I have felt the duty to tell you. The truth is that I think I have always misunderstood this expression. I have always imagined a straight road, in which... [+]

Digitalisation scrap

They once explained to me that the word spam means a very poor quality sausage that was made in the Anglo-Saxon villages of surplus pigs. The word may be known because it has a folder in the email that receives messages you don't want. This term was the first example I met to... [+]

Edurne Azkarate said from the micro stage that the Basque film has little Basque in the celebration of the San Sebastian Film Festival. The phrase echoes for its truthfulness. In the architecture scene you can repeat the same motto and I am sure that in so many other cultural... [+]

Gordophobia

Onintza Enbeita denounced gordophobia in her column on October 4 in relation to the experience of a visit to the gynecologist. It can be said that we are all committed to entering the same body, and it is true, we have all heard what it is, but it is also true -- that what is... [+]

Pakito Arriaran and Korta

I don't know if they met in Lapurdi. Enrique Gómez Korta was killed by the Spanish Basque Battalion on on 25 June 1979 in Baiona. Pakistan Arriaran fled to Iparralde in November 1978, where he stayed for a year, until he left to Venezuela to avoid the attacks that ended his... [+]

It wasn't a sadness, right next door. And great despair. This year we have given birth to two creations ("Lurez Ezkutua" and "Bidasoa Mintzatu"), we have achieved great success and yet a bitter feeling squeezes my neck.

I have been working in theatre for about 30 years, writing,... [+]
