homophobic moments and Liquidity

I have the great good fortune of having been admitted at a workshop under the name 'After ... The Moment of Remembrance ', held the week that comes in the Reina Sofia, and I meet with fourteen other lucky people, with the intention of thinking, develop, create, debate, discuss and learn all about from the relationship between narrative memory and history, and networking with personal identity, family and collective imagination, between repression, trauma and resistance to forgetting, exploring visual documents, experiences, poetic devices, etc.

The workshop is an initiative embedded in all a very interesting project led by Virginia Villaplana , an artist and university professor Valencia, "The Moment of Remembrance" , complete with an interesting documentary novel, an exhibition of photographs in which a documentary (in the gallery Off Limits) and a cycle at the Reina Sofía cinefórums. This project focuses on the tragedy of mass graves in the cemetery of Valencia, where, between the end of civil war and 1945, were buried thousands of victims of Franco's repression. Virginia Villaplana claimed his memory with a strong poetic and drinking from a wide range of historical sources and artistic resources, ranging from research and documentation to capture testimonials, etc.. This effort has also added value that transcends the necessary recovery of democratic and antifascist memory: what makes Villplana Virginia, through and from sureivindicación, is pushing us to reflect on the very stuff of memory, what of the forgotten traumatic taxes, the hard boundaries between history, narrative and its imprint on our personal identities, family and cultural ...

I spent part of this afternoon snorkeling in the family photographic archive, hunting and capture of images for a first exercise we do in the workshop. This immersion in the past really mine but even precedes me (before my birth) has been an intense journey, strange and yet very close and personal, perhaps a taste of what live next week.

will continue reporting.

What Happened To 99.9 The Carp



seems that people of PP has acquired a taste for that call 'motherfucker' staff, and that after the Esperanza Aguirre and his slip at open mic, a councilor of the PP in Torrejón has dedicated this expression the mayor of UI in this county. Do not want to talk about the references to the mother of one who makes these Peper, but refer back to the theme of which was the second insult, the debate this past month is dancing in the media about the registration of immigrants irregular. And is that about it, and without kin to the mother of one with the oldest profession in the world, have said many, many, many atrocities. PP spokesman in Congress, Rafael Hernando, released two weeks ago the following pearl:

"There is a group of immigrants who should not be in Spain, and [what Vic] is not a problem of xenophobia, but basically of liquidity. " For

Hernando, sorry, you're wrong. What's in Spain is an amount sobradísima of politicians saying stupid things: that clear. That is the real problem of liquidity.

How To Connect A Portable Car Stereo

memory quotas

news of the election of Soledad Puértolas as a new academic tongue with joy and sincere congratulations (how corny word that), because I think a very remarkable writer of contemporary English literature. I especially like his role as storyteller (which I followed as a reader more than the novelist), a narrative genre that always seems to "minor" in the eyes of critics and audiences in spite of having such a strong tradition in the English language. My sympathy for the recognition that this appointment means for Puértolas, I added the certainty that, just by how he writes, because of the relationship in literature has with language, by the great humanity and closeness of his stories, this writer is a scholar capable of entering into such old institution fresh air. And I will not deny, because I feel like it: the fact that women are also feeds my joy at the news. And not because a woman is something valuable in itself, but because an institution that seeks to form and rule to reflect that common speech of mortals projects, must be added to the best people, the most capable, regardless of sex, and the final mosaic is also as representative as possible, since such training, community speaker.

Every time a woman enters the Royal Academy English, the official voices of this entity are quick to emphasize that the choice is entirely due to their qualities and not to any policy in favor of parity because, as said Victor Garcia de la Concha, "choose someone from fees would not consistent. " Perfect. This putting the band before having any injury is quite telling of what really lies behind such statements as Garcia de la Concha and traditions such as the Academy. Consider for a moment: does that mean García de la Concha there are only five women with sufficient merit to be seated in chairs? You mean, really, than their male colleagues-vast majority-have never been privilege in their life, including his career as honrosísimos philologists, linguists, writers, journalists, researchers, etc., by the mere fact of being men and not women? Obviously the male gender in general is not guilty (we are not) of machismo accumulated by history, but we must be aware of it and stewards in the commitment to overcome it. The fact that the Academy has only five women, like it or not Garcia de la Concha, the example of structural discrimination and the collusion of the institution itself, by act or omission done with it.

So, and here they agree with the official academic sources, Puértolas greet the entry of the SAR because it "recognizes its merits and the work he has done over quotas." In particular, above the quota overwhelmingly (almost exclusively) male who has applied the Academy throughout its history.
