Things in Spain today are quite difficult. The lack of employment and general social upheaval create disturbing general symptoms. However, with encampments and the organization of the May 15th the people have finally shown to have awakened, there is an urgent need for change in the Spanish political organization, the neoliberal model that once we thought was the solution, turned up not to be that effective. The union of all, peaceful protests and without violence can generate more changes than all the pain caused to the revolutionary political organizations in the past.
And the truth is, young people now do not believe in political parties. The party idea has been well behind. The idea of the political party is retrograde, recalcitrant, boring. Every party requires leaders, heads, and mouthpieces. The phenomenon of 15-M and campings everywhere, as well as other protests and revolutions worldwide, demonstrates leadership, it shows that enough is enough, enough leaders, just the same revolutionary impulse absorbing system off and on with its own guidelines. We are now facing the phenomenon of the rhizomatic political organization via Internet. Facebook and Twitter, two of the most abominable creations of cyberspace may, and as we suspect, have not been just another invention to become consumers and producers of information faster and efficiently. They are indispensable tools in today´s political world. Chain letters, invitations to events, fan pages, among others. This is how people,, the mass of young people who seek change are more aware of everything that happens.
Recently, the community of Lavapies said no to authoritarianism, no to racism, no to violence. Racism in Spain is really alarming. The migrations of recent decades have led to the pair of political crisis and decay, an unholy xenophobia spreading everywhere. However, there are people committed to change, who do not believe in racism, xenophobia, petty nationalism and bad feelings. The video here shows how some neighbors spontaneously organized, said no to the police and their abuses, not the castrating authority, they demand freedom, unity, and above all, peace. No human being is illegal anywhere in the world. We understand that the social changes that affect us, and the cultural diversity identities are essential for the survival of cultures, change and create fusion wonders. Keep your eyes open to change, because it has all colors, all sexes, the world belongs to everyone and we will rebuild it. Real Democracy Now! We are legion.
