(Small review and reflection on the student march from 16/09. Or the eternal fight between the books and shoes)
Luis Alexis Leiva [*]
Day Oct. 16 held in the federal capital a large demonstration to demand for more funds education, building improvements and a quantity of more items relating to education.
took advantage of the commemoration of that fateful event termed "
All these data, although as should be made public, were not large enough media coverage in relation to the magnitude and importance of the facts. This lack of attention from the news agenda makes it very clear what are the interests that matter when it comes to "inform." In this respect only do justice to the phenomenon happened to different websites, blogs and other social networking sites which are not linked to economic and political interests of large information networks. It is also true that among these sites disclosure are responsible for organizing the march, whether they Student Centers, smaller political groups that supported the march, and different forces involved. This obviously will not give a very objective view of the information provided but the other bell to be heard.
What is really outrageous is to see how the hegemonic mass media try to diminish what happened, distort and distract to others, having more to do with their own agendas. As an example we can name what was more important for television news to focus on the burning of an effigy of Mauricio Macri, in graffiti on public buildings and debris left after the event. It is true that many of these things are considered criminal acts, but in light of the claims, the terms of public education, injustice and lack of accountability by the rulers, the emphasis is these facts (which On the other hand are not unique to students, but common to all manifestations and demonstrations of any kind) is at least misplaced and outrageous.
So things with the media. They will try to get into the heads of the citizens of their main agenda items, such as
Despite this, the event was massive, really massive, and all the Plaza de Mayo and several blocks around were occupied by students and teachers.
Insights on the fly and takes .
Needless to emphasize the
significant historical importance and was the march to the Plaza de Mayo on the anniversary of
First the issue was well received by the national government, because the claim was directed mainly to the governor
Shots educational institutions by students is a form of protest is not new. In the current case was initiated by surprise because high school students, belying the image that the media wants to give all the time on Adolescent beings without social, criminals go unpunished, unreasonably violent, rude, no future, no vocation, uninterested in their cultural, practitioners of virtual life, drunk and captivated by technology.
Teens have always been a destabilizing group in society. For your own psychological makeup, his first reaction to what adults are offered, is an outright rejection. Not surprisingly, been no progress in the negotiations that the government tried in the early stages of the conflict.
Their reactions can not be extremists, inexperienced in terms of diplomacy is concerned, unorthodox and even disorganized. But let this not be devalued their claims.
Thus, to see journalists vent their frustrations, their fears, their fascism on adolescents which neither the majority, is at least embarrassing.
After secondary schools joined universities and tertiary institutions. Here, other issues came into play, which did include most political parties and other organized movements and with more experience with marches, protests and complaints.
organizations were almost parallel meetings, everyone was trying to go to
za ga high school students. But as often happens in such cases, more experienced organizational apparatus took a clean sweep the final act in Plaza de Mayo and left no plenty of space for high school students, real drivers of the movement. Likewise, it is to be relieved as this and not something that is not esperace.
The atmosphere that was experienced was true communion with great respect among all real participants and fellowship among students, teachers, political parties and other organizations and individuals autoconvocados.
was a need to pay real attention to this was happening, and abuses children outside, everything went peacefully.
The desire that this is a historical movement was apparent in the continuing name given to the student protest.
is obvious that the term for naming was Estudiantazo , to find parallels and similarity to known CORDOBAZO (which is referred to in many of the songs).
This form of movement with the suffix name AZO is used to give the impression that you named is a big hit, an attack, a way which resonates to bang, to say a swipe a door. Other words derived and used with this suffix are of the same nature, such as hammering, hack, etc. Estudiantazo could say then that is like a sharp blow with students.
In normal cases get hit with a tool, in which the tool has no entity such as volitional. It's just a tool and sufficient. There is someone who wields it and who uses it to hit something with a purpose.
long-standing custom of naming seems this and social movements or protest. We also recall the Cacerolazo. In the latter case we can understand that a group of citizens expressed their protest with pots banging ... that somehow very literal, so it happened.
Following the same thought, and finally, we hope that students will not be the tool anyone to strike a blow against what God knows. Than wielded by anything but their own hands, and that the blow that they give to themselves and against the policies of educational impoverishment, as beneficiaries only have the students themselves.
'll see how things are happening.
you soon.
