Why Didn't San Agustín Protest Against the Venezuelan Government?
01 Oct 2023  |  elDiario.es
San Agustín, a parish in Caracas, did not join the protests against the Venezuelan government due to a combination of fear, survival strategies, and a complex relationship with the chavista ideology. The community, while critical of the current government's handling of the economic crisis and social issues, remains engaged in grassroots initiatives like the cooperative food distribution project led by Pueblo a Pueblo. The text highlights the tension between the government's control mechanisms, such as the Clap food distribution program, and the community's efforts to maintain autonomy and solidarity. The narrative also reflects on the historical and cultural identity of San Agustín, emphasizing its resilience and the ongoing struggle for social justice.
66% of Spanish soil is contaminated by pesticides, report denounces
11 Jul 2023  |  EL PERIÓDICO
Two-thirds of Spain's surface area is contaminated with pesticides, according to a report by Ecologistas en Acción, Seo/BirdLife, and WWF. The report, presented in Madrid, calls for the Spanish government to reduce the impact of these substances. Key recommendations include developing a regulatory framework for agroecological transition, setting ambitious pesticide reduction targets, and ensuring transparency and public information. The report highlights the negative effects of pesticides on health, ecosystems, and climate, and criticizes the lack of updated data and the continued use of banned pesticides under exceptional circumstances.
The (Incomplete) Map of Mass Graves in Madrid
25 Feb 2023  |  rebelion.org
Since 2009, several Spanish regions have pioneered the creation of mass grave maps to identify repression sites and victim numbers. Until recently, Madrid lacked such a map, with only 54 graves identified. A new map by ArqueoAntro reveals 322 graves with at least 15,906 victims, but the project faces challenges due to incomplete data and political resistance. The investigation highlights the disparity in exhumation efforts across regions and criticizes the Francoist regime's neglect of its own victims. ArqueoAntro seeks further support to complete their work and calls for public contributions to overcome institutional barriers.
Children of Forgetfulness
09 Jan 2021  |  diumenge.ara.cat
Following the Spanish Civil War, the Francoist state executed thousands of civilians opposed to the regime, leaving over 115,000 people still missing in mass graves across Spain. The United Nations has highlighted Spain as having one of the highest numbers of unresolved enforced disappearances globally. The descendants of the victims continue to fight for justice and recognition, with associations of victims' families pushing for public policies and laws that ensure truth, justice, and reparation. Despite the Amnesty Law of 1977, which prevents trials for crimes committed during the dictatorship, the movement for historical memory persists. In Paterna, near Valencia, over 2,300 people were executed between 1939 and 1956, making it one of the largest mass graves of Francoist victims in Spain. The article also discusses the emotional impact of the Francoist repression on Spanish society and the ongoing efforts to exhume and identify victims, with recent support from the Diputació de València since 2017.

Ibiza's 'kellys' say 'enough' on their first strike day
24 Aug 2019  |  www.eldiario.es
Two years after their initial protest, hotel and tourist apartment housekeepers in Ibiza, known as 'kellys', have launched their first strike to demand better working conditions and compliance with labor laws. The strike, supported solely by the CGT union, began with 60 'kellys' in Sant Antoni de Portmany, Ibiza. They are calling for early retirement options and resources for early detection of work-related illnesses, citing physical injuries and stress from their workload. The hospitality industry has not released participation data, but CGT estimates 2,000 out of 8,000 'kellys' in Ibiza and Formentera joined the strike. A larger demonstration is planned in Ibiza's capital, with support from feminist groups, Podemos, and other unions like SAT.
In Venezuelan Guajira, children leave school to sell gasoline
09 Feb 2017  |  nytimes.com
In Los Filúos, La Guajira, Venezuela, an area plagued by extreme heat and lack of rainfall, children as young as 13 are leaving school to work in the lucrative gasoline smuggling trade. The minimum wage in Venezuela is insufficient to meet the high cost of living, especially in border areas like La Guajira. The government's currency control policies have led to a thriving black market, including for gasoline. Children are involved in various roles within the smuggling operation, from calling cars to empty their tanks to transporting fuel to Colombia. The situation has led to significant school absenteeism, with estimates of up to 60% dropout rates in the state of Zulia. The children, some of whom have been in the business for nearly a decade, express a desire for different futures but are caught in the cycle of poverty and lack of opportunities.
The PP moves past Unidos Podemos in the capital and the PSOE rallies
27 Jun 2016  |  El País México
In the Madrid elections, the Partido Popular (PP) surpassed Unidos Podemos, while the PSOE showed signs of recovery.

The PP improved from their previous performance, and the PSOE halted their decline, coming close to Unidos Podemos' results. Unidos Podemos lost confidence in Madrid, only leading in three districts. Ciudadanos experienced a slight drop but maintained a significant vote share. The PP candidates won the top three spots for the Senate in Madrid, with the PSOE securing the fourth seat.
