El pasado sábado 7 de Mayo, se llevó a cabo durante toda la mañana, el I
Mercado de intercambio de Esparreguera. La actividad fue un éxito:
mucha gente que estaba por la calle participó y se interesó por su
funcionamiento. Un total de 7 paradas e incontables intercambios con los asistentes fueron dando color a la jornada.
A statement by the anarchosyndicalist CNT of Spain on the May protests and occupations which have swept the country.
The countless demonstrations and occupations that are taking root in
the main squares of cities and villages since the 15th are a clear
example of the organizational capacity of the people when they decide to
be the protagonists of their own lives; overcoming apathy, resignation,
and the absence of a self-awareness with which to articulate solutions
to take on and construct alternatives to the many problems that today
face all of us: workers, the unemployed, students, immigrants, retirees,
the precarious…
The organizational formulas developed in these mobilizations prove
the viability of direct participation through assemblies for taking
decisions that channel our aspirations and demands and make us overcome
individualism. We become protagonists, rather than spectators of a
system based in representation and delegating authority, which erases
our individuality. Assemblies, a rotating microphone, working groups,
responsibility, capacity, organization, self-responsibility,
coordination, involvement and visibility are the collective teeth that
move our gears, capable of challenging the institutions and provoking an
expectation and public debate that have eclipsed the electoral campaign
and the recurring contents of the national and international press.
