French Wishes For Engagement

boluditos the moon


Sorry, but I claim the 90's. I belong to that generation and it seems it was a forgettable season for some or directly harmful. If someone discovered
politics in rural conflict, so be it but that does not mean that nothing happened before. As young people are a lost generation. We fought and lost. We did not have the resonance of the Generation of 70 ', or the prestige of the generation of 60', but by that time we knew it was crap trumpet. We had no internet or cell phones, also had a 6 7 8 but we knew it was the trumpet propaganda organ of power.

I remember the 90 'on the streets. Against pardons against privatization, against the Federal Education Act, against the sale of YPF, against the sale of airlines, to protect education, health, work, dignity and the right to justice laws Alfonsin and Menem's pardon denied us. I remember threads in the middle of high school students, faculty discussions, bars, streets, squares.
not know if it's because I hung out with people who argued to the coffee, but always discussing politics.

We are the jerks that treason against the Peronist party we welcome the emerging Grand Front (Frente Popular first meeting of the South) We are the generation that knew that neoliberalism was crap, and fought against the economic model. The question is not who did go see everyone at some point, that "McCarthyism" is not going, but it bothers me to hear people talking very light of my generation as a disastrous step or forgettable.

We are part of a generation claimed that he was defeated by the arrival of Néstor Kirchner and Cristina Fernandez's presidency, but we were not some jerks that did not suck, we cared or just get high and listen to "cool." We had to resist and today, we endure many converted into "Nac & Pop."

Again, my intention is not to separate the waters to see the degree of purity, but to say that during the 90's there were many people on the street resisting, fighting for a fairer country, though we fail, even though we lost, we were there .
