A bailar! Buy minutes


As expected, one of the things I enjoyed most in my short stay in Colombia was the music (and dance, of course). Taking as a reference only to Shakira, Juanes, Carlos Vives and reggaeton was a pleasure to discover new rhythms and sounds. As in all the musical diversity of this country is overwhelming. In taxis and buses themselves dominated cumbia, vallenato and reggaeton, but we had the opportunity to meet other genres that fascinated me. Moreover, the good thing about music is that you can take it to your home. I bought three albums and listen to them day and night. Let's start

The Revolt, a group of young merger had the pleasure to see in concert (pictured) in the essential Quiebracanto room, located in the bohemian neighborhood of La Candelaria, Bogotá. The Revolt combines a very cool music on the Colombian Pacific, whose roots are largely African. The base is a specific kind of marimba marimba chonta: it adds a lot of African percussion, two powerful voices of women, a mixture of traditional letters of complaint, the scheme that the chorus repeating a phrase (do not know what it's called) , clarinet and bass, and the result is spectacular. The album sounds great, but 30 women journalists live dancing together was unforgettable.

The next day the organizers of the meeting, we prepared another concert, this time private music from the other coast, the Caribbean. In this case, the three fundamental elements are the big drums, a wind instrument called bagpipes (nothing to do with Galicia) and the peculiar way of singing of the pipers. Total catharsis. I put a video of The Pipers of San Jacinto , a frenzied pace oldies that have been awarded a Latin Grammy.


My third purchase was a disc musical Toto La Momposina . I am guided by the sonorous name and the recommendation of the clerk, who defined it as the most representative folk singer in Colombia, which picks up the different traditional rhythms and sounds throughout the country.

I'm eager to teach traditional dance La Guajira, unlike what we mean by Latin dance. It is danced in couples but not caught or Pegaditas. It is a kind of courtship, in which the man round to the woman while walking to small baby steps, swagger. Grace is, among other things, that we must look at each other all the time, which gave rise at least in my more embarrassing than the wildest reggaeton. Well, I've been through, but it is a challenge. A fellow of the meetings, a native of La Guajira, and one of the musicians made a demo, and loved it. If anyone knows the dance and we can pass your name or a video, you'll be very grateful.

Let's start the New Year to the sound of drums!

Deposit Was Given For Car But Was

One of the things that struck us upon arrival to Bogota was that the streets were plagued of fruit and sweets stalls where there was gaudy placards reading "SOLD MINUTES" or simply "MINUTES". What would that be? Could buy the time in Colombia? The answer was more prosaic but no little quaint.

original This is a call service that has emerged with success does not spoil or need to buy cards like the cabins, do not run the risk that your call is cut for lack of credit, as I did in a visiting and is especially useful for people without the resources or desire to have your cell phone. For every 20 meters, both in big cities and in the medium and even in the villages, you're either with posts like those described or even a person who sells advertising minutes. The situation is as follows:

June: Hi, I make a call to a cellular Comcel
Seller of minutes: A mobile or fixed?
J: A cell
V: What carrier?
J: Ummmm
V: Tell me how it starts
J: 313
V: Comcel. Tome.

The seller out of his pocket a chained cell and I offer it. It takes three or four. I call as my own phone, chat, and I charged for minutes, between 100 and 300 pesos per minute. International calls can be found minutes from 250 pesos up 500. Recall that 300 pesos is 10 cents. It is much cheaper than a booth where a call will easily spend more than 10,000 pesos.

All right then? Obviously, the other side of the coin is that it is extremely precarious work underwater, royalty and under police harassment. We carry all kinds of people, but include three groups: young males, middle-aged women and their children. Competition among vendors is wild. There are no established rates and prices shooting everything they can. To my surprise, now I was looking I found information about a job offer on the Internet that shows you can work persons:

"I worked as a salesman of minutes on the street, you manage your working time and where you want to locate a single must meet weekly goals in the sale of minutes, more minutes equally between band, the greater will be revenue for you, the person should be responsible, hardworking and accomplished. income between 400,000 and 600,000 per month "

who is not quoted the advertiser or talk at any time of the contract. 600,000 pesos are about 200 euros. The minimum monthly wage established by law is less than 500,000 pesos.
What is not clear to me is whether this activity is still sought by police, at the request of the Ministry of Communications, as I read a report in 2007. In later news gathering not only harass them and confiscate the phones, but the government would criminalize speeches accusing them of unfair competition to make a legal and business booths. Any Colombian Colombian or we can explain the current situation?

The driver Uribe

The driver is young, brown, her hair slicked back and his tight white shirt tattoos suggests rudimentary. Driving recklessly (as all taxi drivers, on the other hand) and its radio is blaring reggaeton. After the two free questions ("Where are they? What do you think Colombia?") Uribe begins to praise. "Colombia is that it has nothing to do with what was before, thanks to our President Uribe.'s been a great president. He is finishing with the guerrillas and now, Bogotá is a safe city" says enthusiastically. Anyone

takes the opposite. Especially since, after a week surrounded by university professors, journalists, musicians, social workers, we first met at a somewhat more representative of the bulk of the Colombian population.

do not ask your name. Let Jairo called. Interrupted, not by a long time, Uribe fervor to tell he was a professional soldier and that the army gave the guerrillas hard.

left to study with only 9 years to start work that came out: shoeshine boy, street vendor ... He joined in the army as he could. Did not say at what age but his military salary was twice the national minimum wage. Is proud of his work in the military. In addition to serving his country, said he enjoyed. However, his mother was worried about having a job so dangerous. She, a widow, got a few years ago to emigrate to America, where he had another child. "I have a little black brother, I know this for the first time this Christmas," says Jairo excited. His mother was able to thrive in the U.S. and buy the licensed taxi and he left the Army.

As well, I love Christmas, but bothered that have banned the use of fireworks during the celebrations. And for the record I believe in the Christmas spirit when you give a ticket to 20,000 pesos to pay for the trip (which costs 11,000) he charged 1,000 of tip. "It's Christmas" is justified mischievously.

Armenia, Colombia Colombia

Since I learned that in Colombia there is a town called Armenia an enormous curiosity overwhelmed me I got quench by chance. We were in Pereira, in the heart of the coffee, giving a workshop at the university. Thought after spending a couple of days doing a tour around the city. Our plans changed when he meets Claudia, mother of Maria Teresa, the organizer of the workshop. Claudia lives in

Salento, a beautiful town, very touristy due to its colorful houses full of craft shops located in the neighboring department of Quindio, also in the coffee. She has a farm that grows herbs, an activity that combines with various social work projects aimed at promoting the empowerment of rural women in the region through the arts. We said we could not stop going to Salento and convinced us. We caught the bus, the vallenato are sweet, eager to detox from all the noise and pollution of Bogota and Pereira. We found a charming traveling companion, an Indian musician and mystic, but that story I reserve it for another time. Total

that after meet in Salento Claudia told us: "What do you think an interview at the college radio of Armenia? Is for the only program with a gender perspective in the department. "How do you say no to a request like that? We hardly had time to leave your luggage in the guesthouse and have a coffee before getting back into another van heading to another city.

"Why is it called Armenia?", as we had occasion to ask. For those who inhabited this region were considerably enlightened. So, to found the capital of Quindio in 1889, far from resorting to the name of a virgin , wanted to pay tribute to victims of the war that was happening in Armenia.

The Armenia Colombia is known as "the city miracle." We were told it was because of how well they recovered after the earthquake of 6.2 magnitude on the Richter scale that hit in 1999. It amazes me now read on Wikipedia that killed 1230 people. I suppose that given the magnitude of the disaster, the figure is much lower than expected.

actually just saw the city, but we went to the University of Quindio to conduct the interview. Was for an environmental program led by environmentalist Nestor Jaime Ocampo, which Xatlí Murillo, journalist and close friend of Claudia, has a space that incorporates a gender perspective. We had to record on recorder and a drop in blood suspended the program. The good thing is that during the wait we chat with Jaime and Nestor Xatlí, two university professors charming, passionate about environmentalism, we spoke of the evils suffered by the region, as desertification due to the massive cultivation of exotic species of pine. Nestor Jaime

told a feat, so please check now traced (I love Google) has become popular. He bought shares of the multinational Smurfit paper to stand on its shareholders' meeting in Dublin and report that they were profiting at the expense of committing two separate crimes ecological Quindío. Meeting

a report that tells the whole story. I copied an excerpt: "The fact [the intervention of Nestor Jaime in the shareholders'] recorded in profusion on the radio, newspapers and the Irish television, was unexpected achievements and the famous rock band U2, led by Bono, was involved in the debate, when it was discovered by the multinational bad habits inserted a group photo in their publications, making it appear as guarantor for the management of the multinational. Néstor Jaime wrote to Bono and the group condemned the action of Smurfit. To conclude this part, say that the demand established by the powerful Smurfit against Nestor Jaime Ocampo succeeded: environmentalists demonstrated against the Colombian justice system that claims were backed by proven facts. "

a luxury for hearing this story in the voice of its protagonist, and to know him and to Xatlí, a pioneer report on the nexus that unites feminism and environmentalism. Thank you both.

As I do not know where to start, I think I'll tell little stories and anecdotes from our trip in installments. In end has been a wonderful experience, both games as the days touring Bogotá and the coffee (Pereira, Armenia, Salento, Cocora ...)

No tourists have gone too. The trouble is that we may have been essential to see things: monuments, museums, landscapes ... The good news, we have embedded more than I thought in Colombian society. More than geographical landscapes human interest me, and I believe to have been only a week we could discern at least a few elements characteristic of the people paisas.

A week has only been enough to get used to the idea of \u200b\u200bthe possibilities offered by the country: its overwhelming social diversity, ethnic, cultural, political and social, with hundreds of features, stories and conduct interviews, dozens of dance rhythms, millions of people peculiar to know ... García Márquez say more than a great novelist, is a great photographer. That is, Colombia is pure magic realism. From what little I've seen, attest. I'm all enmorriñada

, but globalization has its advantages: Today I ate chicken arepas rate of calf, and I bought a chocolate dessert peanut. Tomorrow I soursop juice breakfast in the Plaza Nueva, and tell you my adventures as the owner of those premises as the Cali girl in the parlor I frequent. While you can not go back, get the most juice to those segments of cold blanking Colombia Bilbao.

25 November at the demo, the 26 in Colombia! Minor

is coming November 25th International Day Against Violence Against Women, a day of mourning, which hits record to killed 57 women so far this year by their partners or former partners, and many others killed in previous years. Remember we usually generate rage, goats leads to insufficient social awareness, with the bad media coverage (in most cases), with gaps in laws, etc. However, this year I plan to meet the date with hope.

Of course we have to be critical, but I think we must preserve the joy and enthusiasm for the beautiful things we are doing so we would not invade the defeatism. Not everything is crap. I guess what I see because I am surrounded by a lot of exciting projects.

The most intense is that the same Thursday I'm going to Colombia, the III. Meetings of the International Network of Journalists with a Gender Perspective . Remember that the latter two years ago in Oviedo, I came so high that we set up a Basque network. I am sure that this meeting will also give good results. There is no doubt that I am thrilled by what is on a personal level, but all I enjoy what I will inform you of his time in a trip to the parlor, both in Bogotá, where the encounter, as in Pereira, where he teaches a workshop on non-sexist communication. We will meet hundreds of journalists sensitized to equality to discuss communication strategies feminist and think how to strengthen our networks.

just arrived on the 4th of December, I'll leave it to the State Feminist Conference Granada. Another rush: thousands of feminist discussion, sharing, enjoying ... See the tide schedule.

And right now I'm finishing another wonderful project. Hand in hand with the consulting Sortzen, led by Norma Vázquez , Maite Asensio (my compilation of Red, traveling to Colombia and irreplaceable friend) and I have interviewed mothers of Basque women victims of male violence. The testimonies we have written will be read a tribute on November 30 in Barakaldo, whose objectives are to know who these women show they were not killed for being weak and dependent but because they rebelled, to publicize what happens to families when microphones and tape recorders forget them, etc.

The experience was awesome and I am very satisfied with the result. I hope they'll let me mostrároslo soon.

Therefore, because we are walking steadily, reflecting and sharing strategies, spreading our principles and analysis, approaching and meeting the victims and their families, I will not sink in this November 25. Need excitement to go ahead and entangle more and more journalists, because as stated a recent study, well informed about domestic violence can save lives .

Note: Overwhelmed by both exciting project, I would cite the main persons who have accompanied me in this process and that raised my concerns. In chronological order (from breaking into my life): Karmel, Make, Tina, Lucy, Ritxar and Maite.

Note 2: In the vignette, a classic Forges.

expulsion orders


I'm reading the book "Children migrants without family references, coordinated by Antonio S. Hernández Jiménez, with great interest. I especially recommend the article by Silvia Montero, who applied the theories of Foucault and Butler to the concept of unaccompanied children (in terms of social construction that involves performativity but not without resistance), and Nuria began, on the right to family life.

This is great, as it dismantles the politically correct argument that if they promote the so-called groupings (expulsions covert) is to ensure the right of children to family life. On the one hand, started remember that most do not end up reunited with their families, but in reform in Morocco or try to migrate again. But what I liked is that it compares that excuse when it comes to evict them with no restrictions for adult immigrants together at their minor children. That is, when it is that children come, the right to family life matters little to us.

Finally, the book does not waste, but today I wanted to bring you a short paragraph of article Ainhoa \u200b\u200bRodríguez García de Cortázar, and I find a great summary of much the phenomenon of so-called MENA:

summary, the main difficulties in integrating living unaccompanied Moroccan children are político.legal exclusion, which derives much of training and employment discrimination, they leads many to seek alternatives to more or less deviant life, media hype which contributes to social stigma, and influences from teachers, employers and law enforcement, in addition to the children themselves, while encouraging xenophobia towards this group.

Great summary, right?

not want to close this post without paying a small tribute to Kader, a young Algerian drowned in the estuary of Bilbao when he fled from police , which haunted him for a robbery he did not commit. One more victim of the Aliens Act, the criminalization of immigrants suffering and the terrible stigma that carry unaccompanied minors.

exchange smiles

I think to understand the unfair and inhumane Tremeda the Aliens Act is not working so great speeches as showing the consequences in particular in the lives of people. One of the consequences that impact me the most are the removal orders. I am no expert on this, so forgive me if I fall into some inaccuracy, but the story would be more or less as follows:

imagine the long journey of migrating from a village in Senegal to Bilbao. Not normally migrate in one step: the process usually involves migration within the country or region, pausing to work and save money for the trip, a stay in a detention center for foreigners (CIE) in the Canary Islands, wander through different provinces ... Finally, perhaps years after leaving their village, the migrant is based in Bilbao.

was registered and since then need to spend three years in an irregular situation (hence, working in the underground economy unable to reunite with family and denied almost all their rights) to arrange a residence permit and work demonstrating the social roots, virtually the only way left for migrants to regularize their situation.

imagine that when something has registered more than two years and is already taking steps to apply for a job, finds a raid by Immigration brigade of National Police, in collaboration with the municipal police of municipalities like Bilbao Barakaldo or the . The National Police will open an order of expulsion, which involves the risk of being transferred to a CIE (now over later than 40 days, but with the reform of the law will be 60) or be repatriated.

For Euskadi, it is usual that the order is not executed. This means that the person will live with us but with a heavy burden on their backs. First, you must add a minimum of 5 years in an irregular situation (three no-entry into the country and two to be prescribed by the order), ie virtually no rights. Second, you feel the pressure that involves the threat of being repatriated or moved to a CIE at any time.

At this point it should be noted that being undocumented is not a criminal but an administrative violation comparable to a traffic ticket. However, we see that punishment is not a penalty, but three quite disproportionate consequences: the deportation, detention in a CIE (in prison almost regimen) or be doomed to erratic for another five years.

Things can get even uglier. On the one hand, some people accumulate deportation orders. On the other hand, there is the issue of criminal records. One of the requirements to be regularized through the social ties it is no criminal record. Imagine that this immigrant from Senegal, like many others, makes a living winning CDs. The police stopped and accused an offense against intellectual property. Until there is a ruling favorable to the accused or prescribed by the offense, it will prevent access to a residence and work permit.

Integration (I repatea concept) is in any case a process that demands reciprocity. You can not integrate into a society that recognizes you and respects you, you without the right of which is to live for up to more than a decade.

I do not know how you see it, but to me this seems shocking. I've been lucky enough to face this reality by knowing the members of the platform for the rights of migrants Mbolo Doole Moy. Senegalese are mostly irregular, many of them street vendors affected by criminalizing the sale of CDs and DVDs as a crime.

One of his major fights, as I told another time as seen in the photo, is protest the jailing of a fellow which has already been 4 months in prison for carrying CDs in the pack. Are also being organized so that when one of them is arrested the rest they learn and organize to support and make a public denunciation. Finally, with the help of colleagues in the Law Commission of SOS Racism, are being trained to understand their rights, with regard to issues such as deportation orders. I am proud and I am full of confidence y esperanza conocer a personas así, que ante la adversidad optan por apoyarse las unas a las otras y organizarse. Aunque el Gobierno les niegue ese estatus, ellos sí que son ciudadanos ejemplares.

How Much Can You Negotiate At Mattress Firm?

Me sabe mal tener este blog tan abandonado y sobre todo los vuestros. Tenía pensado escribir un post sobre pedofilia en clave de género, repasando varias cositas. Entre otras:

- La polémica sobre las fotos de Brooke Shields . He seguido con mucho interés el debate en Sindrogámico

- Lydia Cacho arremetiendo sobre Memoria of My Melancholy Whores because it makes apology for pedophilia

- A poignant story which highlights the negligible presence of women in a network of pederestas. This is my compilation Itziar analyzes the network of journalists

I have wanted to present my views and contradictions on pedophilia, freedom of expression, art, gender conditioning and many other things, but I get home after Curran and talk about pedophilia is the last thing I want. So, for now, until you remove desire to discuss this issue, I invite you to opinéis on what you want.

And as I say I'm more in need of smiles analysis Brainy, I propose that we exchange videos, songs, articles or whatever you have done enjoy. My proposal, a video of lindy hop, a style of dance to the rhythm of jazz that has signed up will take and that has me amazed. A dance!

How To Rebuild Retaining Walls

To distract us from what you know


long ago gave up the healthy habit of surrender to the rally of my friends in my posts, but I can not recommend you stop the chronic Anderson wrote in his Izagirre blog during his trip to Bolivia.

I think most of you know who Anderson (San Sebastián, 1976), journalist and travel writer I knew that Lucia following send us read his wonderful career (and literally hot) book Basements world. Three years later I can boast to my friends, both bloggers and earthly.

Thanks to your blog, have been participants in their wanderings in Bolivia. We had even felt it, or at least intuit what he felt. I imagined him dazed but very funny amid the din of popular assemblies , deeply dismayed to know Abigail, a teenager of 14 years working in the mines under exploitative conditions, enjoying a football game funny indigenous women ... Whole emotional earthquake I hope we can count on at length when he recovers.

While we wait to see published reports in the press, I leave you with the history of these players give tit Guarani between goal and goal. I like it because, while denouncing the plight of the Guarani women, it is especially their ability to organize, illusions and enjoy. The photo also pulled the journalist Daniel Burgui , Ander travel companion, who has the game and more in his blog .

To distract us from what you know

The game between the teams and Boyuibe Urundaiti delayed a few minutes: Susana, one of the players, is behind the corner breast feeding your baby ( behold this picture of Dani ).

Susana, Guarani 25-year-old mother of six, finally jumps to the field and settled on the edge of his area, where it will pass or a ball the whole game: a central defender impassable. The field is a vast expanse of land irregular, clear in the middle of the village Urundaiti Guarani in the Bolivian Chaco.

( More photos of the party, also Dani ).

The party suffered another slight delay: Coach Carlos says that three of the players Urundaiti are pregnant and should not participate. Reorganization of the team. Some obese women about 35 years wear the kit and take the field in place of pregnant women. Beside them women play 25 or 26 years with half a dozen children each and up to a 14-year-old has also been nursing her baby a few minutes before the game.

Computers and games are organized by Momim (Movement of indigenous women in the world), a partnership led by the inexhaustible Margoth Segovia, who has spent years fighting to improve the lives of women in the Chaco. In a society such as Guarani, which according Margoth is extremely sexist, and whose families often work as bonded to large landowners in the area, women have little opportunity to develop any trade or any hobby. There are plenty of abuse, alcoholism, men, violence in homes, abandoned women with lots of children or the total subordination to husbands. Even those who do not have those problems have little time for anything else to look after the children and keep house.

"We gather to enjoy all sports together Margoth says the players of both teams, in the little speech before the game. It is not played to death. We want lasting friendship, respect and solidarity among all of us. Playing sports to distract us from what you know.

English Dr. Pilar Mateo (inventor of a special paint that kills vinchucas, transmission of Chagas disease) and Margoth Segovia led a partnership in offering courses to teach trades to women, offer legal advice on domestic problems and so they know their rights, organized a weekly radio program and to organize football tournaments.

Yobinka Guzman Boyuibe team goalkeeper, has 29 years, four children and an adopted nephew at home. Every day she gets up at six o'clock, gives milk to her little boy of 2 years, prepares breakfast for the older children and goes to work: is a teacher in a school in the village Guarani Pueblo Nuevo, which serves children from 2 to 4 years. At noon prepares food for his family and arranged for the children to go to school in the afternoon. Then take several hours to clean the clothes and the house. And at night go to the football team training.

"I sleep as if dead," he says, laughing.

(Goals and best plays, pregnant women who dream of giving birth in time to participate in the Donosti Cup 2010 and the player who suffocated in a tit cold calls break to breastfeed her baby will appear in the report that I hope to publish more or less soon).

prostitution, hypocrisy and Immigration Law

prostitution, hypocrisy and

Immigration Law by June

Fernández

U

NAS sordid and degrading photos posted the last week by a leading English newspaper that showed scenes of explicit sex in the heart of Barcelona have reopened the debate on how institutions must act of prostitution. A necessary debate, but unfortunately, is being treated as a mere problem of public order. What worries the public is not the situation of multiple discrimination, invisibility and violations in which women live, mostly illegal immigrants, prostitutes, but their neighborhoods are interspersed with scenes look marginal.

Euskadi is no stranger to this debate. Bilbao City Council, for example, has spent months preparing an ordinance municipal likeness of Barcelona. The goal, once again, not to protect illegal immigrants of Nigerian women who offer sexual services in the streets of our city, but keep them dispersed and hidden (which makes the public health intervention with them) to prevent tarnish the image of villa.

But the pictures of Barcelona have also served to reopen the appellant discussion between passes if the final solution to abolish or regulate prostitution. Those pushing to empty the streets of women engaged in prostitution claim the latter. In our view, however, the abolition versus regulation debate has been overtaken by social reality. It makes no sense to speak of regulation when about 90% of prostitutes are immigrants, and almost all practicing in the street are in an irregular situation.

Currently, the only viable way of adjustment for any immigrant is the social roots, which requires proof of continuous residence in the English state for three years and submit an employment contract. Corbacho Minister has reduced almost to zero the other way, the source of recruitment, and unlikely to interpret that prostitution is a difficult job that requires coverage of a Foreign labor. That is, that a prostitute could should be regularized first three years living without papers and make an offer of paid employment, to work in a club. "You can not make autonomous? Just look at the requirements for an immigrant qualifies for the status of independent work to understand it is completely unworkable.

Ultimately, however much they legalize the activity, the sector would still immersed in the underground economy: the owners of the clubs would continue profiting at the expense of workers in irregular status, duty-free option of self-employed. If the president of Madrid Esperanza Aguirre says he does not go for regular prostitution "is hypocritical, since In our view it is hypocritical to ignore that this option would not improve the situation of the vast majority of prostitutes because of a regulatory framework that discriminates against immigrants in all areas of your life.

The conclusion is clear: if something these women are victims, as well as gender inequalities, is of the Aliens Act, which reduce their employment options in the most precarious and alienating, like prostitution and domestic work. Is usually aimed at the Mafia to justify the actions against prostitution, and are noted as the source of the problem. In our opinion, organized crime merely to take advantage of the situation generated by the shielding of borders to prevent women migrant self undertake a project, the yields of these sexual networks.

What's more, including the National Anti-Trafficking Plan adopted last year recognizes that trafficked women fear being deported under the Immigration Law slows them to denounce their exploiters and abusers. The same plan, however, makes the protection of victims to cooperate with police, a condition that we find unacceptable and which shows the prosecution is still giving priority to the mafia, instead of giving priority to ensure the safety and basic rights of their victims.

Paradoxically, far from understanding the Aliens Act as a problem that compounds the problem of prostitution (controlled largely by the trafficking networks), political leaders and the mayor of Barcelona proposed as a solution to harden their application against the immigrants who practice it. In other words, as the police can not stop its activity, it is not illegal, it opens a deportation order to be irregular. The same politicians who claim to act against prostitution because it oppresses women proposed for them the double punishment of being expelled after being invisible in our society, royalty and exposed to physical health risks and emotional aggression and coercion related to the activity. On the other hand, refers to "save" when they ask these women is not anyone save their survival strategy they have chosen, but are recognized as citizens with equal voice and rights of local people.

Finally, while multiplying the messages that blame and stigmatize prostitutes, or others who pointed victimizers as ultimately responsible for sexual exploitation networks, calls attention than just quoting the other collective protagonist, without the that prostitution would disappear: the johns. Drawer is: there is no supply without demand. However, that demand not only still exists but is in great shape and even increasingly accepted as a sexual option in a society where everything is for sale, just waking thoughts.

what these kids think and feel no qualms young Westerners to enter the street with no rights for women relegated to the third category of citizen? Why if we accept that prostitution is a form of oppression against women does not point to the oppressors, the customers that fuel the business? I miss more awareness initiatives with a gender perspective that, given the frivolous idea of \u200b\u200b"whoring" as a leisure plan, to make men aware of their role when they decide to hire sex.

Ultimately, combining an anti-racist and feminist gaze appears indispensable for understanding the causes and elements that feed the prostitution and, therefore, to develop fair and effective policies to combat it.

Where are the vandals? Bad

Each time I have more clear that the gender perspective is essential to understanding virtually all social reality. The centennial of the feminist work has enabled much progress in analyzing the impact of different policies, trends, etc.. on women. The Equality Act Basque even urged that any action by the Basque institutions to measure the different effects it will have on women and men.

However, the part of men is very green. Industrial accidents, drugs, violence in general, pedophilia (this deserves a separate post) ... There are many problems with man's face, closely related to the values \u200b\u200bon which male identity is constructed. While that is still not recognized, it will be impossible to articulate effective policies.

's companion men's movement for equality has Bacete Ritxar an essential first step, naming the press the relationship between youth violence and the construction of male identity. What does showing that while we searched dozens of sociological explanations of what happened in the riots of Lekeitio and Pozuelo de Alarcón, nobody noticed a reality so obvious and overwhelming, that all young people both in Bizkaia and in Madrid was spent cops chasing pump and causing damage were men. I hope you enjoy his article, published today Deia and Diario de Noticias de Gipuzkoa , and we discuss it.

Where are the vandals? A feminist look at Pozuelo de Alarcón Lekeitio

Imagine a research team from the University of Venus was found Sunday night, chances of the cosmos, making a comparative study of the habits and customs of the people of Pozuelo de Alarcón and Lekeitio. When it comes to an anthropological analysis, figure out what excites me or do the aliens and try to harness the power of alienation of someone coming from far away and not in the habit of normalizing the gross insolence always involves violence. The research group would have encountered alien juveniles in detention, violence, injuries, attacks on police, smashing, strong sexist insults, police charges, burning cars and containers? How would you explain what happened?

If guided by the opinions and theories Earthlings managed by specialists (street, academia or politics), the twins find displays of violence-Alarcón Lekeitio have been motivated by excessive alcohol intake, the "climate political ", over the welfare of youth, rebellion against the established order, lack of education limits the crisis, unemployment, violation of right to self botellonero or leisure?

Vizcaya Mayor linked the brawl to the "barbarism and violence inflicted by radicals" and " global warming that the country has suffered during the summer, "while his counterpart in Madrid attributed the riots to" a group of lunatics out "and pointed that the riots were" an isolated incident. "we know too well that global warming has little to do with violent options each (which are his alone, free and non-transferable) and hardly an event featuring more than 200 youth can be an isolated event. One commentator has pointed to the economic crisis as a key factor to understand what happened, something difficult to explain in one of the municipalities with higher income per capita in the state. A nineteenth-century sociologist talks mustache Alcohol and Mr. Urra, former Ombudsman for Children and José Antonio Marina, the importance of following the serious events are known punishments, so that other young people are encouraged to do the same.

may Venusians one of the researchers, dissatisfied with these explanations, asked: "How many women were arrested? How many protagonists of the violence and why men are the vast majority of people both in Euskadi in Madrid are the protagonists of violence and why over 90% of persons convicted of crimes are men? " And the greatest epistemological turn would when asked: "Is that the planet Earth, women are in danger of extinction?"

My goal with this little literary license is to propose a feminist twist to our attention that allows us to notice the obvious but invisible. How is it that in any gathering mentioned something so obvious as in the images of both incidents and arrests in the list there are only female presence? Why not there? Is that on Sunday night the women spent the holidays and stayed home?

In our society, the legitimation of violence is still persisted as a central element in the construction of masculine identities. No doubt, understanding and treating explain any social phenomenon is highly complex and not be simplified, but gives me what I think and generates unease that the link between masculinity and violence is denied, concealed or invisibilice systematically. Sure delegitimize violence at all levels would put on the wound, questioning the strange, poisonous, invisible patriarchal root which continues to support our reality, both in the social and the personal sphere.

If Lekeitio-Pozuelo events have been led by young Romanians, SSA, "transvestite", "whores" in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwithout papers or anti, the diagnosis would be clear: "Were the others." Our static cultural codes, our enzymes simplifications of reality, are full of prejudice everyday give us quick answers and comfortable like that. But once again, the problem is in the "we" as "normal" and "our" as in life, go. And that normalcy is structured on the basis of sexism, and the allocation of roles and different expectations for men and women. We can not and must escape from this debate, because what happened in Lekeitio-Pozuelo is faceless, gender bias and role: it is ultimately a consequence of the hegemonic model of masculinity. And to show an ethnographic button: You know that you shouted at the policemen who were trying to hide one of the men who recorded the incident in Pozuelo? "Gay, who are all about homosexuals." No comments.

However, gender analysis does not appear on official releases and is invisible in the gatherings. So, ignore the lowest common denominator in both situations: young men use violence against people and things. The persistence of male violence is a verifiable fact both quantitatively and qualitatively. Why does not investigate, you name and put light on the mechanisms that make some young men choose on a personal and collective violence? What fails? What's behind? Why do not generalize equality policies aimed at promoting change in men towards more egalitarian and peaceful? As Simone de Beauvoir wrote in The Second Sex, "not born a woman, is done." With men, young and Pozuelo Lekeitio, same thing happens: they are made. That is the question we should ask: Why is our society continues to produce men who believe a legitimate use of violence?

Any act of violence, to be exercised by supposedly noble motives, needs a legitimating discourse, "the police charged," I'm depressed "," drank "," Young attacked first, "" no future "," we need more iron fist. "Gandhi is often remembered as an alternative to this trend, but it strikes me that perhaps an even better antidote to build peaceful relations, protest and caregivers between people are feminist theories and practices. In two centuries of struggle, feminists have transformed the world, making it better, without burning containers or spilling a single drop of blood.

What Doe Hpv Feel Like

Modesty is also sexist


Imagine you, European woman, traveling to an African village for anthropological research, write a story or participate in a development cooperation project. Upon arrival, I suggest that if you integrate, you must use the local dress, which involves carrying his bare chest. How you'd react? Would not it be a stick? Do not vindicate your right to live with that community with respect for the difference? Something similar may be what an immigrant feels when he urges Muslims to take off the veil.

The comparison is not mine but the professor Jorge Magfud, who poses in a opinion article published in Gara. All comparisons are odious, and I dare not defend it, but I think an interesting and stimulating challenge to rethink the hyper-worn veil debate. Caution: do not speak of the burqa, which I think is another story which we'll talk another day, but the scarf covering the hair only and not the face or body.

know my opinion: the veil is not the problem but the symptom. Machismo is a universal problem that hampers humanity. The same problem assumes some symptoms or other in every society: for example, anorexia and traffic accidents in ours, the stoning of adulterous women in Nigeria, the selective abortion in China ... It seems sterile enter compare which of these realities is more dramatic or press to a greater degree to women. It seems more practical to recognize the global problem and address it to wear off with him all the symptoms. Perhaps it is utopian, but what I think. And what is important to understand the veil as a symptom and not as the problem is that it prevents those who decide to take crush. That is, once again, the responsibility and the concept as a Christian who is to blame may lie with women and get into the contradictory dynamics of victimize and blame the same time.

When we listen to a European parliamentary Arab and Muslim faith say that the veil frees the hands we took the lead and we have a horse Stockholm syndrome. However, what you are saying is that because in their culture (male) is given a great eroticism to the hair feel if the output sexualized. In our culture (male) breasts are one of the most sexualized. Therefore, if we lived in that African tribe topless, feel that men do not look at us more than the boobs.

Not the same root? In both cases, a patriarchal culture keeps women sexualized reduced to objects of desire (not subject) to the delight of the male gaze. In one case, the desire is concentrated in the hair, and another on the tits. Of course it is discriminatory that Arab women have to (or at least be educated to) cover their hair in public. But so is that Western women have to hide her breasts. Imagine another situation: popular food in the village festival in August. 40 º in the shade and then men began to take off the shirt. To see who is the handsome man who dares to get in bra, do not tell you because of boobs. And why not? Because we are the daughters of Eve, the temptation personified. To teach is to provoke the male breasts.

As I said, do not compare. There are women murdered for daring to take off the veil. What would happen to the woman who goes topless on a pilgrimage? You cross out the crazy, cool, humiliate and harass you. Moreover, in this society are heard comments (more or less convinced) and that: "And then they complain that there are violations, if they are dressed like whores!". The level of repression varies from one transgression to another but, again, it seems more fruitful to recognize all the faces of machismo without insisting on measuring what is more dramatic.

Otherwise, it will almost always look more dramatic than those experienced the others. We always feel more free. We need to hold the burka burka as the need to cling to botox and bulimia. It is only human, I guess.

Putas

are the talk of the week. I have to say that my anger, far from decreasing, is growing day by day. The facts are as follows: El Pais, the newspaper that is losing quality, ethics and good taste at a rapid pace (opened with the cock closed spliced \u200b\u200bBerlusconi's Friend), published on Monday a showing pornographic pictures sex on the street, next to the Boqueria market Barcelona . Some Nigerian prostitutes were penetrated by white boys and young men, and others are practiced fellatio. It is so obvious that I do not want to argue why they are demeaning to these women (even if your eyes are deleted), for the rest of prostitutes and all women. Also for men with a modicum of sensitivity.

Just a comparison: the newspapers show corpses of Afghanistan's 11-M. Similarly, it would be unthinkable to show people that we recognize as the same being sodomized (with all that the idea of \u200b\u200b"being given by ass" symbolized in this society) and blowjobs. It shows these because they belong to the homogeneous and threatening "other." Are "other", have nothing to do with us, are not good citizens but illegal black whores, so we infrahumanize and humiliate all it takes to line the cost of their misery.

was accompanied by a report that prostitution was just a matter of public policy. All sources, members of neighborhood associations to whom the rights of these women are matter very little, to get these uncivil advocated road scenes. Obliquely cited the whores can be in many cases victims of trafficking. They were not given voice, and those members of neighborhood associations offering miracle solutions we illustrate how to create self-managed cooperatives. The johns or spoke, though it is clear that there is no supply without demand. This unfortunate

infraperiodístico product has reopened as the country now boasted an equally unfortunate in editorial, the debate about how out of the way to the whores. The johns do not bother us, no, although it is used to take a powder sad those which, due to the multiple discrimination suffered by the being female, immigrant, poor, black, paperless, found in prostitution one of the few ways to survive. We bothered them. Just because of all that, because immigrant women, poor, black and undocumented that disfigure our streets. And sometimes even steal is repeated insistently.

mafias we care a little more, but no victims, no, (to whom open orders expulsion of all forms and are required to cooperate with the police for protection), but as a pretext to further develop policies fardar repressive police effectiveness. The debate we are seeing is terrible. Solution is claimed to be police tipping over in applying the Immigration Act to punish them. That is, as we can not stop them for being whores, stop for not having papers. Wing, so we should not complicate our lives and decide between abolition and regulation.

A debate-the abolition vs. regulation-has been overcome by reality, of course, since 90% of prostitutes are illegal immigrants. That is, in the case of legalized prostitution, this 90% only benefit in the following way: could make a job offer in a hostess club to try and regularized through the social roots, a process that demands have been irregular status in Spain for three years.

words, those who want to work for others will do it first for three years in the underground economy. Three years in the best, because when you open a deportation order back to the beginning of the process. The beneficiaries are once again pimps and johns. To exercise on their own, an immigrant would have to win roles in some way, and then become self-justifying his business and others. Somewhat impractical for a whore, go.

The conclusion is clear: the debate is the Aliens Act. Yes, yes, that is used against prostitution that feeds it. Is reducing the output immigrant women's labor, which the mafia throws unable to migrate independently, the brakes when they are raised to denounce their exploiters and abusers. An Immigration Act passed with the approval of most political and labor groups, and that much of the public calls for tightening. That is the frame. To those who defend it and allowed to talk about the rights of immigrant women and victims of trafficking they should drop their heads in shame.

Jenna Jameson Size Matters

You know that the Government of Patxi Lopez has proposed doing away with the symbols pro-ETA on our streets, which has caused a few incidents in the Bilbao Aste Nagusia. Well, I'm going to throw a comment:

is a sensitive issue for me, because I live in Bilbao La Vieja, one of the neighborhoods most plagued Bilbao posters and graffiti (for example, Txeroki Askatu ) and even two facades beyond my building is a huge painted with the symbol of ETA. Yes, I have the misfortune to see everyday the fucking snake and ax. I hope that soon, because today I have decided to call the Ertzaintza to request the deletion. I'll tell you.

However, I think the Government has mounted a counter Paripe. I sincerely believe that political marketing has given priority to efficiency. Do we need so staging? I have not seen so much symbolism in the streets of Bilbao as this year so (and look which sucks) I somewhat agree with Egibar . One argument that has convinced me is that the efficiency will come when those who dedicate themselves to pass the bill painted them astronomical fines convince them not to return to their old ways. Sounds good, but I do not tackle the real problem.

In my opinion, the message needs to be placed on a minority that does advocate violence, but a majority still do not feel able to distance himself from it and criticize it in an open and standardized. I think the important thing is to make childcare so that more citizens like me to call the police for graffiti to erase or remove the bitter sign them every day. Moreover, we must awaken from anesthesia that people who do not support ETA but for those symbols go unnoticed, perfectly integrated into the urban landscape in which they grew.

hateful fundamentalists will always exist. I think the key is to make it the citizenry to demand openly and forcefully advocating freedom from terrorism. To express our outrage with the same ease that when we find a swastika or posters misogynist anti-feminist revolution that swept Bilbao recently. Start a sign that offends us, put a NO ETA on Facebook or express our pacifist convictions and for human rights when it comes to speaking the so-called Basque conflict no longer small revolutions daily.

Today a fellow blogger Jet Lag Bilbao has posted a video on a performance in which people intended to wear a shirt with the legend ETATREGUA. I await your opinions.

How Long Does It Take To Heal From A Spleen

Zero Tolerance Report on transsexualism impeccable


I am outraged that a transsexual adolescent psychological treatment that has the authorization their parents and doctor to perform a sexual reassignment process also need to ask permission from a judge. A judge is not necessarily an expert on transsexualism and, probably, without a gender perspective. You may even play a judge with transphobic prejudice. I was wandering

thinking about these things when I found an article on the subject surprisingly flawless. It is signed by Emilio de Benito in THE COUNTRY. The first pleasant surprise is that it speaks of female transsexual and assigns a name of a woman, Mary. It is the first I've heard in the media refer to it according to the genre that has chosen to live and not to sex with that nation. The second pleasant surprise is the diversity of sources to which go, not just the usual doctors, judges and politicians, but a number of collective-rights of transsexuals. The third and probably most unexpected surprise is that it introduces the discussion of gender dysphoria: giving voice to those who argue that transsexuality is not a disease.

Without further ado, I invite you to read: Judges

doctors stuck


Emilio de Benito
A judge is holding facilitate or retard that Mary, 16, have a normal life. The young transsexual (name) has been in the past year and a half hormones to have the woman's body with which it identifies. Surely dresses and behaves like the girl who feels it, even if it cost him to change school and a rejection that has led him to attempt suicide. Now it has requested authorization to go further surgery to modify masculine traits with which he was born. His family and doctor agree. But that is not enough.

How Much Does Mandap Cost

these days is 3 years Ellipsis. You see I am not at my best time blogger, so much to desire not blow candles make great balance sheets and tributes as usual. I'm trying to make me the sea brisilla charge batteries to recover the pace in September.

helps me in that good purpose input Nan recently published. I'm sure you identificaréis with much of what it says: a mixture of fatigue, insecurities and dreams that mark our life blogger. I hit the second half, but I encourage a lot read the entire entry. It is mostly an excuse to talk about how we feel on this adventure we share. What better way to celebrate three years?

fatigue blogo

I get into the blogosphere to learn of the human being and to build bridges. When they cut me from the other side or make tenders, now low and now I go, I notice that I have cut a piece of me. But the truth is that we tend to tire: all. A doubt what we are doing. The why, what, how, when. All that shit that makes us fear that we are looking at the navel and leads us to abandon the action for now yes indeed, remain idle watching the navel and toes. There is also causes "reasonable", like mine, heh, heh, I have expanded both the field due to time I find it hard to follow who want to follow. And then real reason the prudent abandonment of the job as an advance reading and review of "my" blogs. Against that you can not say anything down their time. Personally, the jersey stop "giving of self" and begins to looks ridiculous, with the oppressed and those arms panzota should not continue to grow but grow (or decline wool clump together). But doubt and let ourselves be affected by the relentless attack that often throw some, which is the second sub-theme:

blog's Exhibitionism

We even believe them, we fear and we cut. Well, all blogs "mine", or in yours, I find a speck of self-esteem. What would you expect? But there is no showing of "but how cool / cool am. " There will be one of those, but I have not caught any. We are people who communicate well what we are, often throwing faults. Or communicate our literature, which is like naked. So what?! So we know and love. Praise, sometimes excessive, often come in the comments. What's strange? Speaking from my experience, I frequent each have 20 I've known and rejected. How can I not to worship those who have chosen? When I comment, I do led by affection but also by the enthusiasm based: it is like rereading your favorite authors, but in doses so small they can not get enough. Each one is like, but there are those who have to meet. I bet, to a greater or lesser degree, you are like me a long time my favorite action has been talking with friends, tell how you are, what happens to you, discuss it. And in return, make voyeur and I counted them, trying to reach the innermost fibers could. It was well and made me be even more so. Is not that what we do on blogs? So what nonsense is this exhibitionism and voyeurism? Our nature is communication, which brings me to the third sub-theme:

blog's Friendship

And I mean a real friend, a virtual hug sometimes have been realized. The blogosphere is where most of my friends. Real friends. When something happens to me restless and I write, and when I notice "under" do the same. Physical meetings have all been happiest, without exception. I feel accompanied and I know you feel the same to you. It's a real blessing. To which is added a real and verifiable improvement in our writing. What more? Conclusion

can not be other than accept the tiredness when they occur. Slow down or go away a little time to recharge. It's the same with real friends (and do the actual writing out of the blog). Sometimes we tend to solitude and introspection. But the key to so many good things in one word: persistence .

How To Read Dimensions Of Product

the blogs I go up the Do Not testosteronaaaa

seems to me extremely dangerous
debate chemical castration, that is, thinking that a rapist inject hormones to reduce their testosterone levels is a solution to prevent re-offend. This means admitting that sexual assaults have a biological cause: the biomachos are victims of uncontrolled increases testosterone, which are responsible for having recourse to satisfy their uncontrollable desire to forcing a female.

CAN NOT PREVENT SEXUAL ASSAULTS Without understanding how an expression of power in a sexist society

who does not understand that rape is a form of some men to subjugate women and reaffirm its power, not be able to launch effective preventive policies. It is a matter of hormones but of power. It is known that many rapists were not even raised. Rapists are not mentally ill with excess testosterone. The one who is sick is this society that continues to educate men to exert power over other people and that is teaching women to be available, serve and care of sexual gratification are the goals that give meaning to their existence. What will

what next? Will the testosterone also involved in the murders macho (uncontrolled anger)? Do we think that a male transsexual or a bio-woman as Beatriz Preciado is administered testosterone can be a potential rapist?

I am in favor of the free movement of hormones. That everyone (at least minor) chute is what you want. Whether the violator Preciado turn to try to clean his conscience (a few that have not achieved). From what I am not in favor is that an autonomous government biologist advocate a solution to a serious social problem as that of male violence. And even less to support the arguments of those poor violators to see if they can not control who ask to be hormones (you grow boobs and everything! stop being a man! look to what aberrations are ready to submit!) not to sin again.

With that headline, the Government will save deepen the problem with a serious comprehensive perspective and helps to clear his conscience rapists blaming everything on a hormonal imbalance. I can think of few actions more irresponsible. I repeat:

SEXIST VIOLENCE IS NOT A PROBLEM OF HORMONES

How many killed and raped more women are needed for the political class to know?

Female Esthetician Male Waxing

I hit the post I posted on the blog Bio Jet Lag:

I come from the concentration condemned the murder at the hands terrorist organization ETA two people yesterday in Mallorca. In bold type "murder" and "terrorist" because those words are unfortunately still taboo or at least hard for us to say openly. I could care less who were civil guards, it seems more important, as I write this blog, noted that young were very young.

Once again, I was embarrassed verify that the average age in the concentration was about 55 years. I did not know how to interpret. Do they demonstrate in public against a gang that kills and terrorizes in the name of Euskal Herria requires maturity? Or should we expect that within 30 years are only four cats ready to take to the streets to express their weariness?

Match the last two attacks by ETA (apart from their horrid 50 years) with a presentation on progress of a report revealing that Ararteko 15% of Basque youths between 12 and 16 are not rejected or justify the violence of ETA, while another 14.8% are indifferent or not defined. have made very dramatic readings on the results I do not know if I share. This type of study on the attitudes of adolescents tend to be scary, either those related to gender equality, sexual diversity and immigration. I do not think youth is insensitive, but largely repeated the arguments you hear in your environment and considered most popular (still more comfortable to call queer sign partner to demand respect), while a larger part still does not dare to express their convictions. If there is something that concerns me is the silence.

And to think of great measures to break this silence, I think the solution is for adult people and, indeed, the girl (with whom the teenager was identified more) try to make small daily actions to standardize open defense of human rights, also when it comes to ETA. For example, in my school, each time ETA murdered, was a tiny group of teachers who are concentrated in the courtyard and the other people looked at with disdain. There is no doubt that honored them, but I think more effective spontaneous comments in class. Ie can not be a Basque terrorist organization killed a person and in the classroom no mention be made of this and its social, political and ethical. That is to educate.

therefore believe it is the responsibility of all citizens visualize our unreserved condemnation. And there he is doing, even among youth and using the resources offered by social networks. Many of my friends from Facebook have replaced their profile by EZ-ETA ETA message NO. A friend has posted on his wall a message that I liked much:

BAKE BEHINGOZ EMAN. Ez nazazue salba. I may be saved. I DO NOT SAVE

belongs to a blog, I DO NOT SAVE , which the author, ETA kills every time, published a similar post from yesterday:

Atzo 40 zauritu Burgos. Gaur bi hildako Mallorcan. Salbatzaileek Euskal Herriaren ulertzen halaxe aldeko diplomazia dute. Ez zaituztegu Behar. Ez zaituztegu nahi. Eman bakea behingoz! Ez nazazue salba. Yesterday

---

40 injured in Burgos. 2 dead in Mallorca today. So understand diplomacy for Euskal Herria the saviors . I do not need. I do not want. Leave us alone. I may be saved. 40 Injured in Burgos

---

yesterday. 2 Killed in Mallorca today. That's how Our Saviors UNDERSTAND diplomacy in favor of Euskal Herria. We do not need you. We Do not Want You. Leave us alone. I DO NOT SAVE.

That Do Not save me has spread like wildfire through social networks, another example of the usefulness of these to facilitate a more dynamic kind of activism and independent.

I said, since this blog is about youth expression, encourage the Basque youth to break the silence and speak out against this savage and systematic violation of human rights that is weighing the welfare and living in our society.

Gay Sauna In North Jersey

save me Surviving is not a crime!

is one of the slogans of the concentration which has called for Monday at 10.30 in the Palace of Justice in Bilbao (c / Barroeta Aldamar) platform for the rights of people migrants Mbolo Moye Doole to report a new abuse of human rights on behalf of intellectual property. Because I would add, survival is not a crime but the practice of the SGAE itself, or at least should be considered as such.

A resident of Bilbao from Senegal is being held in jail in Basauri. His offense has been carrying pirated CDs in the pack. I copied the information you have provided the group and invite you to read the reports that the Basque press devoted to the topic.

MAIL: The top blanket to jail
DEIA: 'Manteros' Bilbaínas unite to demand the decriminalization of street vending

On 3 August 2008, two neighboring Senegalese Bilbao, with no criminal record and irregular, were arrested in Torrelavega because her purse had CDs and DVDs Pirates.

The September 5, 2008 the judge of Criminal Court Santander 2 sentences them to six months in prison and a fine of € 900 over € 650 in compensation to the SGAE.

On 27 November 2008, the Audiencia Provincial de Santander confirms the sentence.

subsequently judge of the court 2 of Santander substitute imprisonment for expulsion.

early July ordered the imprisonment of one of those sentenced to deportation, even though they both maintain their home and continue to go to court to sign every first and fifteenth of the month.

law professors, judges, prosecutors and lawyers believe that such measures are disproportionate and injured many of the principles of criminal law in a social and democratic state of law. Human rights associations and immigrants complain that it is a way of criminalizing poverty and stress that it is grossly unfair reaction. Even many artists have asked not to imprison these people on their behalf.

However

are about a hundred foreigners who are in prison for selling pirated CDs, not counting those who have been sent to detention centers.

So at this point that a fellow inmate in jail is Basauri and because of the filing of the application for a pardon for him and another colleague call on a rally next Monday on 27 to the Audiencia Provincial de Bilbao (street Barroeta Aldamar) at 10.30 am and welcome all media to Press Conference at 11.00 in the same place.

• For the release of imprisoned fellow Basauri prison.
• against harassment by the police and the serious consequences that the allegations are for vendors and CDs.
• For the pardon of all manteros convicted.
• By Penal Code and the decriminalization of the sale to provide the criminal response to the social impairment of value in crimes against intellectual property.

After Prom Houses At The Poconos

Released!

something left I have this blog for some months and I think it's time to explain why. After months of instability and uncertainty in the country which affected me more levels, I decided to change course. In the media at this time double-crisis (the economic and journalism paper) is practically impossible to find a decent working environment and a non-toxic.

Instead of sinking, I realized that working as a journalist is not an end but a means to communicate. And do not try to communicate to communicate, but to express what I have. And what do I tell? This blog is clear evidence, especially as related to gender, multiculturalism and diversity. Having reached that conclusion it was decided to redirect my career toward that medium to long term, increasing my contributions in specialized magazines (I have done) and plant study the Master of Feminist Studies at the UPV. The pending issue was the short term, what would to live.

And there appeared a wonderful opportunity and although I was discharged, I launched into the pool. I'm two weeks working as released by SOS Racismo-Bizkaia (you know which is the organization in which military) and I feel liberated! Dignified, respectful and, above all, dedicated to telling what they believe. I am delighted because I dedicate especially communication and awareness, so that means being immersed in the scene but from the other side, which I find very stimulating. At the same time, be released is supposed to be small for all, so I think I'll learn a lot. I am happy and wanted to tell thee.

restore stability, I hope to resurrect the blog and return to visit you as much as I like. However, in my job search, I got into a project for a few months would keep me from writing much here as I wish. This is write a blog about a festival of young urban expressions to be held in November in Bilbao. Maybe post link here to write on it, and so still having heard from me. On the other hand, this summer, this blog now three years old, so I think it has become strong enough to be allowed some slack season ...

Many kisses to all and all, sorry that I have abandoned and know I miss you a lot a lot.

What Is The Best Way To Make A Metal Penny Boat

The old are the future

At the time I loved the following story published in Diagonal and I was eager to bringing it to you here. Addresses gender-ageism, discrimination against older people, which means they are treated as if they were invisible, useless, children, grandmas and grandpas mere docile and harmless ... Contempt or condescension ninguneo. are the main feelings aroused in this dictatorship of youth. We see the serious consequences of this trend, like widows are one of the groups that higher rates poverty present in our societies.

But the interesting thing is that there are movements that are fighting this situation in key feminist and Old Women Movement. Among other proposals, speak to reappropriate the word "old" pejorative to transform into a weapon of political demands, as do, for example, gays and lesbians with the words "dyke", "fag" or "queer."

Ageism is a form of sexism, they argue. I leave you with some excerpts from the interview:

The world is ruled by old men but the women of the same age are completely excluded from the public sphere, enclosed in a stereotype that reduces them to their roles in the family. Just as in the '60s and '70s are deconstructed the idea of \u200b\u200bwomen, today it is necessary to deconstruct the stereotypes that weigh upon the old. "Until recently there were only women in the family, as mothers or wives. The model wife of the '50s was submissive, dependent and harmless. With us is the same. We are reduced to the figure of the grandmother, although not even have grandchildren. " (...)



Although the protagonists of the feminist revolution in the '60s and '70s are now reaching old, the ageism has never been part of the agenda feminists. Missing role models, spaces in which to share experiences and intergenerational dialogue. "Women get old without knowing anything about the invisibility and exclusion with which we meet. And worse: having internalized social stereotypes all ages. " In Rich's opinion is crucial that women understand that by accepting the social stereotypes about the old, is a trap for themselves future. "The little power you can get a young woman being lost each year as they get older. The 30 loses power by not having 20, 40 failed to have 30, etc. Ageism disempowering to all women, whatever their age. "

In its actions, Old Women Movement always come accompanied by a large doll with the face of German artist Kathe Kollwitz and dressed in shirts designed by them in which you can read: "The old are your future." A good motto to start looking at them with different eyes.
