Beaded Bracelet Meaning

Friday 14 May

Today I attended a very dynamic, invigorating meeting to systematize the work of all defensorías part of the last ten years, which was a lecturer from Santa Fe headed.

impressed me a lot of statements. On the objective of MEDH Aleja said that they did not in the barrios had gone there to talk about the desaparecidos , but the issue of the desaparecidos of to work today. That means first and foremost learn to listen, which Aleja himself admitted that it was hard for her because she had so much to tell at the beginning of the desaparecidos . She herself is a former prisoner very active in the movement of ex-detenidos-desaparecidos .
is however precisely this historical background of the MEDH important for some. Inés told how often they spoke with Aleja, Ricardo, María on the subject of desaparecidos. Esta lucha it mía. Pude construir una identidad de lucha . What amazing sets! And in the midst of all the problems of unemployment, macho man and things, of which I do not know.
That it is an important issue, I had this impression pretty quickly in my Defensoría in Quilmes. Especially the otherwise sympathetic-impulsive Nancy make the atrocities of the Militärdikatur emotionally affected. She had to do with many people, the relatives of desaparecidos , and told a few examples of how incomprehensible were the kidnappings of Amsterdam. People who are just in church communities committed, without any further political activity, were considered subversive. Once a man was kidnapped because of a mistake - his first name was that of the person sought similar. I did not understand everything they told yet. Ricardo from MEDH however, said at another time, that the military should have known exactly what to put in a threatening potential of the base communities. They were not killed by mistake. Verónica told of an incident at the beginning of the dictatorship, when her family moved into a house, which was down a small grocery store. Then a "subversive" code was written: the letter P in a larger V, sign the Peronist Youth. Two police officers arrived soon after the move over and asked in a threatening sound, who would have written to this. They explained the fast moving situation and that they did not know. The subsequent statement, it was immediately about especially since the blood that they would see otherwise, would cost much more than the color. The father stressed about it. Shortly later, the police are effectively controlled and forced Verónicas older brother, who was at the age of military service, sign a blank sheet of paper. He refused, but he ultimately had no choice. Terror among the people. Arbitrary and unpredictable actions. The vast majority of kidnappings were carried out in broad daylight in the middle of the road. The system had. A military dictatorship is not working entirely in secret. It is a game of stealth and public created, which deliberately poke the fear of terror.

Back to sistematización . The theme of dignity came out as a central point of the MEDH work. Rebeca, another Coordinadora said, the fact that they would try, the right to have rights to convey. recuperar el derecho de tener derechos . But this vision could not be applied to the subject of dignity, in my opinion. She spoke out against the statement that people in the barrios the Defensoría had no dignity, because this is a derogatory position of the middle class against the poor. Instead, they prefer there to talk about it, that the poor do not know that they have dignity. The view expressed by her criticism, I may well share. But I found myself more again on the side of Inés', which meant that people might normally not do anything with the word dignity. What should be in relation to their reality? I think when I meet people in the attitude: you know it it yet, but I tell you now time that you all have dignity, then this may be very violent. Definition of violence, perhaps? Marius remembered the banking model of Freire. The teacher tried to solve the problem of finding a synthesis of the conflict by Marías statement of reconstruct lo destruido took up. All that help destroy the barbaric system in which the people rebuild. That's what the attempted MEDH.
