Colorado Requirements To Be A Mortician
The cool nights of summer nights has given way to the dance of the leaves in the wind and the rain water. A strong smell of salt and winter arriving from near and wild sea permeates everything. It brings an old north wind that blows in the corners, under the sheets that cover rusty bicycles, on the tic-tac of the centennial clocks to mark the hours ... no runs stays empty and his hat politely, it goes to where he came in search of others to pick up litter.
In the garden at the back, echoing and distant echoes of the debates, literature, politics, customs, insurance will now be the cafes blaring capital letters to dupe young aspiring anarchists glory, more more ephemeral and of poor quality.
The three chairs vacuous now, back to bear, insurance, famous backside with the heat wave. The pundits always occupy the same. In fact, which is cut, usually set a renowned jurist, author of prestige and illustrious man of the republic. Since everyone knows that what is " tertuliea " in summer, is conceived in the autumn and winter stop (either law, novel or essay) Each has its place. Now that chair also supports the spray stoically in the rain is here waiting to recover a role in another picture or be the seat of some great idea.

We Appreciate Your Busines ^ Spanish
I have retired
old newspapers when we retire, we lose all touch with news and current. The truth is that all around us, it forms a new parallel reality, alien and different from any other, pictures Guatín brown coat. The most important thing now is to pursue the midday sun and section Mercadona's sweets (everything has its time.) In the newspaper you say "young promises" come back when you want, you pass and look. So just watch, because reality, his youth, news, reaching a speed that one does not arrive. Moreover, I do not want to go. Because both base running, things become obsolete in minutes and "young promises" will leave grooves in the face with the same speed with which clears the last war, the latest victim of violence ("sexist? .) With those things, news, at that age, life is so forgetful as to our ages, in our case may be an incipient alzeimer, if a kind of juvenile dementia. The news forget the sound of a click. On second thought, the reality is also parallel to what is really happening, is two minutes ahead of life and forget the coils. Today I decided that I will not go through the newspaper or watch any news. I'm not interested. The biggest news I can tell, I have passed.

CU SUBJECT: CASTRO'S ILLNESS; IMPACT ON THE BRV, ON BRV-GOC RELATIONS CARACAS 00002367 001.2 OF 004 Classified By: Classified by CDA Kevin Whitaker for reason 1.4(d.) Summary
-------
¶
1. (S/NF) BRV reaction to the announcement of Castro's
illness and recovery directly mirrored that of the Cuban
regime. There is no reason to believe that the fundamentals
of the Cuba-Venezuela relationship -- with Venezuela
providing huge resource flows, and the Cubans providing tens
of thousands of "advisors" -- will change through the medium
term. Castro's absence from the scene will deprive Chavez of
an avuncular presence and a proven crisis manager, which may increase Chavez' vulnerability. In the event of Castro's permanent departure from the scene, the mercurial Chavez may
become even more unpredictable. Chavez may believe his
regime's survival is tied to that of a Castroite successor
government, and under a conceivable set of circumstances
might even be willing to deploy Venezuelan military assets in
support of a successor regime. Embassy believes this would
be an apt moment to warn the BRV against intervening in Cuba
during its transition. End summary.
Initial BRV Reactions to Castro Announcement
--------------------------------------------
¶
2. (U) Initial Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela (BRV)
reaction to the news of Castro's illness and temporary
hand-over of power has been limited to parroting the Cuban
line. Speaking on August 1 in Vietnam, Chavez seemed a bit
taken by surprise and uninformed, but said he had talked to
Cuban officials who assured him that Castro "would return to
his job in some weeks." The same day, the Venezuelan Foreign
Ministry announced that they "had received, with satisfaction, news from Cuban authorities" that Castro was recuperating. Vice President Jose Vicente Rangel similarly
said that he spoke with his Cuban counterpart Carlos Lage and
Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque, who assured him
that the Cuban leader was recovering normally.
¶
3. (S/NF) Chavez returned to Caracas on August 3,
apparently without stopping in Havana. SIMO reports indicate
that he had wanted to do so, but the Cubans waved him off,
fearing that his presence would undercut their efforts to
convey a sense of normality. Chavez got the point; during
his August 6 "Alo Presidente," Chavez said he had learned out
that Castro was up and talking, and expressed his confidence
that the Cuban leader would be back in action soon. Interestingly, Chavez did not suggest he'd spoken personally to Castro. Too, he engaged in a lengthy digression about his
appreciation for being able to meet and work with a hero from
his youth. Certainly it was not his intention, but this part
of Chavez' comments took on the tone of an elegy.
Speculation on Raul-Chavez Relations
------------------------------------
¶
4. (C) Regardless of whether Fidel is alive or not, it
would appear that Raul will continue to play a larger role
than in the past. Public and other sources have included
speculation about the lack of chemistry between Chavez and
Raul Castro. While we question the reliability of such
judgments, because it's unclear to us the basis for reaching
them, they are worth being aware of. Americo Martin, a
former Venezuelan Communist close to the Castros in the 1970s, told El Universal that the younger Castro views Chavez with distrust and caution. Former Venezuelan Ambassador and
ubiquitous international relations analyst Julio Cesar Pineda
told poloff August 8 that he has heard that Chavez is close
to FM Perez Roque, and VP Lage, who it would appear are going
CARACAS 00002367 002.2 OF 004
to continue to play important roles in Cuba. Exiled Cuban
intellectual Carlos Alberto Montaner probably made the most
relevant observation in noting that Raul and Chavez lack the
emotional ties that bind Fidel and Chavez.
What Does it Mean for Venezuela?
--------------------------------
¶
5. (C) While there are a number of unknowns in the
equation, there is no reason to believe much will change in
the bilateral relationship in the short to medium term. Both
countries derive benefits from the relationship. Cuba
benefits from the millions in oil and transfer payments for
services rendered; Venezuela benefits from the advice of
Castro and tens of thousands of "trainers" and doctors.
Apparent Cuban influence in Venezuela has grown dramatically, to the point that opposition Venezuelans sardonically refer to "Venecuba" or "Cubazuela" (both forms are acceptable).
Chavez relies heavily on Cuban advisors to implement programs
that are one of the keys to his political success. We assess
there could be as many as 40,000 Cubans currently in
Venezuela, managing, guiding, and implementing Chavez' social
missions (e.g., Barrio Adentro medical program, Mision
Robinson literacy program, Mercal state-owned grocery chain,
etc.) Rumors swirl about Cubans taking central roles in
sensitive government functions, including in Chavez' personal
security, the military, the National Electoral Council, the
national identification Office, even land titling offices.
None of that is going to change soon. The Bolivarian regime
is deriving political and organizational benefit from it, and
the Cubans are getting paid hard currency for it.
¶
6. (S/NF) We judge that Chavez will also want to continue
Venezuela's generous petroleum support to Cuba, which we
currently estimate at 98,000 barrels per day, worth at least
$7 million a day, or $2.5 billion a year. SIMO reporting
indicates that Chavez directed that his staff find ways of
increasing resource flows to Cuba. We can think of two
motivations Chavez might have in increasing cash flow to
Cuba: first, to help a friend in need; the one thing he has is cash, and he can give more of it. Second, it may also be true that Chavez is looking to bump up transfer payments in
order to increase his influence in Cuba at this critical
moment. The economic assistance could become a problem,
however, if the egoistic, increasingly intrusive Chavez used
it to promote his own candidate in any ensuing power
struggle, prolonging the infighting and delaying a democratic
transition.
How Does Chavez Act if Castro is Debilitated or Dead?
--------------------------------------------- --------
¶
7. (S/NF) Castro's prolonged convalescence or even death is
likely to cause headaches for the region and roil bilateral
relations. Some argue that Castro has had a moderating
influence on Chavez, and so he'll really let go if Castro is
gone. The predicate seems wrong to us. It's hard to see
much moderation in Chavez' recent behavior: open
interventionism and tendency to pick fights with leaders
throughout the hemisphere, his embrace of pariah states (including especially the vote for Iran at the IAEA and the apparent endorsement of the DPRK's July 4 missile launches),
and his government's relentless assault on basic freedoms
within Venezuela. It may be closer to the mark to observe
that Castro is one of the few people who could contradict
Chavez or give him news he didn't want to hear. We've
received numerous reports that Chavez is left surrounded by
yes-men, because he simply won't accept bad news or
criticism. The absence of Castro -- to Chavez, respected and
avuncular -- could make the mercurial Chavez even more
CARACAS 00002367 003 OF 004
unpredictable and radical.
¶
8. (S/NF) Over time, Chavez will probably move toward
assuming the mantle as (in Castro's words) "my successor to
advance social revolution." Chavez will need to work this
issue slowly, as he does not wish to suggest prematurely that
Castro is dead and inadvertently cause problems for -- or
with -- any successor Castroite regime. That said, Chavez
has neither the intellectual candlepower nor the
international environment to replicate Castro's rise to international prominence. That doesn't mean he won't try, and he'll play his best card -- oil wealth -- whenever he
needs to. And whatever the force of his arguments, his
checkbook is going to speak loudly.
¶
9. (S/NF) We should be particularly mindful that Chavez
will be a committed advocate of the continuation of a
repressive regime in Cuba. Chavez has been on a losing
streak, with the electoral results in Peru and (it seems) in
Mexico; were Cuba now to turn toward democracy, Chavez would
be increasingly isolated as the sole radical leftist in the
hemisphere. Chavez may believe that the survival of his
regime is tied to that of the Castro regime.
¶
10. (S/NF) There are some even more troubling scenarios
that one can play out in this regard. Chavez has said as
recently as this April that he'd be willing to spill
Venezuelan blood to save the Cuban regime (although he was
speaking about a U.S. invasion). Were there to be an
internal civil conflict in Cuba, we believe it possible that
Chavez would consider intervening militarily on the side of
pro-regime elements. It is not clear to us that such an intervention would be militarily effective, but the presence, or even threat, of a Venezuelan force in Cuba would have
important implications for Cuba and for us. Perhaps the most
likely scenario would have the Venezuelans providing lift
capability to loyalist troops; the Venezuelan Armed Force
(FAV) does retain some fixed-wing and rotary lift capability.
That said, a Venezuelan navy troopship regularly plies
between Venezuela and Cuba, and could conceivably be used to
move FAV troops to the island.
(11. (C) Comment: As noted in previous email traffic,
Embassy suggests that this may be an apt time to warn the BRV
against intervening in Cuba.)
An Achilles' Heel?
------------------
¶
12. (S/NF) These are some fairly gloomy scenarios. We can
conceive how Castro's absence might actually make Chavez more
vulnerable. Hugo Chavez is a master tactician, regularly
assessing the domestic political situation better and faster
than the opposition, and making moves to box in his
democratic opponents. What Chavez is less good at is crisis
management. To take a recent example, Chavez' first instinct
to go to Castro's sickbed was wrong, because it would have undercut the regime's "all is well" line. There are historical examples, of Chavez cracking under pressure. In
both the 1992 and the 2002 failed coups, evidence suggests
that Chavez lost his nerve at key moments. His military
colleagues were willing to fight on in 1992 when he was holed
up in the Military Museum, but he surrendered them all. In
2002, a weepy Chavez was reportedly ready to sign the letter
of resignation and flee to Cuba. Castro has proved his worth
to Chavez as a proxy crisis manager. It was Castro who told
Chavez to fight on in 2002, and it was Castro who worked the
phones to reassemble a pro-Chavez consensus in the armed
forces. In 2004, as the recall referendum approached, it was
Castro who conceived and executed the "misiones" plan to buck
CARACAS 00002367 004.2 OF 004
up Chavez' popularity. In Cuba, from the Cuban Missile
Crisis to Mariel to the Maleconazo to the Special Period,
Fidel Castro has proven himself to be a superb crisis
manager. Should Chavez confront a thorny crisis, especially
a domestic crisis, he may suffer significantly from the loss
of Castro's steady hand at his back. This, in turn, could be
an advantage for us in our efforts to urge a return to full
democracy in Venezuela.

Letter to President Chavez
Letter to President Chavez Citizen Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías President of the Republic 
His Office Mr. Chairman, I do not see
for almost 21 years, when we met in my office of army commander. As you recall, I stopped because I had evidence that you prepared a coup for the day December 6, 1989. At that time, a group of senior officers and officials, acting as accomplices pleaded to the president, who decided to release him "for lack of evidence." The same plan, then aborted, you repeated what 4F 1992, after my retirement. That failed coup made him a national figure and led him to Miraflores legally. Before the elections no military threatened to ignore his possible victory. If anyone would have done, I myself had come to defend you from this blackmail.
Today, 70 years of age, I worry about his decision to publicly defend Maj. Gen. Henry Rangel Silva and ascend in situ, as with those who have performed a heroic act in urgent danger of his life. This general unworthy all he did was boast a cohabiting with you and your cause. For him, loyalty to the homeland is average while with you is total. Faced with this shocking display of adulancia, you, rather than degrading it, ran to climb. Before the general adulation was Rangel Silva awarded the shameless promotion, I wrote an article in El Nuevo País "unfortunate statements criticizing the general said. Then a chorus of protests from different trenches allowed to feel the discontent. I noticed you did not lost long time ago tune with the people.
grotesque instead of rising, the bad example he deserved a penalty and dismissal. But this is not what most concerns. We get used to the idea that we will soon have dozens of generals in chief and thus the degree that merited Simón Bolívar, our great kidnapped, as will depreciate our currency. The trouble is that you confirm your decision orally to ignore the outcome of the presidential elections of 2012 if it is adverse to him. Such abuse of authority can not be overlooked, although the authorities do not take steps to convict him. In doing so, Mr. President, you said you de facto war more than half of the Venezuelan people.
Although I have seventy years of historical and legendary character that does not pretend to be a modern Alonso Andrea de Ledesma, facing the English buccaneers who plundered Caracas in 1595. Even I have an old helmet and armor, or a rusty spear. But I have my conscience and I feel the duty to cope up the gauntlet and challenging to you slapped us Venezuelan citizens. No one has selected to fill that position, but as a soldier of the republic, I feel obliged to take the risk. After all, to you no one has been authorized to exercise electoral blackmail. We are equal, unless you're Goliath. I'm an old man while still young vowed to defend the institutions to their lives if necessary, and still faithful to that commitment. I have lived a lot and I'm not afraid of death.
For these reasons, Mr President, I notify the democratic forces of the nation as challenge to face in the polls and accept the triumph of obtaining a majority. If you try to implement their threats to use force before or after these elections will resist with the same weapons you use. He also participated to the appointment of General Rangel, or any other officer designated as an alleged drug dealer, as defense minister at the time of the election, will be taken as a sign that you continue with plans to ignore the election results 2012.
I warn you that there will be peace only if it respects the Constitution and the voice of the majority of the people. So far its continued violations of the Constitution have been ignored, but the accumulation of contempt is becoming intolerable. The possible abortion of the 2012 elections or the lack of an adverse outcome to their political interests release the demons that are dammed. The Venezuelans want peace, but at the same time reject the dictatorship of any color. From the moment we are watching the weapons of democracy and at the same time ask because they do not unleash a civil war.
not pretend to be the leader of a movement against it, I'm just a humble messenger. Too many young leaders, intelligent and courageous willing to fight. I hope this tragedy will not be necessary. The military architect of freedoms is not going to kill Venezuelans.
This is not a threat of a coup or the beginning of a conspiracy, is a bell for you to understand that we are willing to fight for freedom and prevent the consolidation of a dictatorship along the lines you get from Havana. We do not want the dream of Bolivar Castro becoming a nightmare.
power in the interest of passenger and obsolete ideology and ruinous You can not start a civil war that will make him a monster to the story. No more call to Fidel for instructions. Get to govern Venezuela to the Venezuelans. The great Latin American unity will never be achieved with the communist model. Moreover, if you follow the pattern of Ms. Bachelet's government or to Lula could change the current trend and win in 2012. I guarantee that if you win cleanly, his triumph will be recognized as it should. Return to be Venezuelan, allow Fidel to die alone to Venezuela to live in harmony.
prevent you from reacting with the usual insults and defamatory. Always be ready to act as rational and decent people, according to what we were taught in the academy that shaped us as citizens and soldiers. Bury the hatchet directed from Cuba. Venezuela demands it.
Sincerely,
Major General Carlos Julio Peñaloza Zambrano.

Blog Action Day Dramatis Personae
Another year this blog has the great pleasure and honor to put a bit of conservation. This year, rather, a water droplet, the good life, more important than oil and also finite, but that seems not to be given any importance and no value. We could talk about the absolute lack of water in the countries called "third" or the sheer unhealthiness in the "segundimundistas" something that is coming to our comfortable first world. But we focus on Spain, where water quality is not the same in Madrid and the north than in Almeria and Murcia (to give examples I know). In some places is of a quality and perfect conditions puraza, odorless and tasteless, while others seem to clay and refined taste and smell do not know why ...
But then, engaged in political Plans Hydrological and other trifles, in Spain no one or hardly anyone stopped to think about water shortages and the bad management of it is done. We have the most polluted inland waters in Europe according to all reports. But the sea, ... the sea salt, is considered the most exploited coast of Europe. There is not a cubic meter of seawater in the dash not a swimmer or a speculative piece of concrete in recent years promoted by public authorities (Mediterranean, mostly). That breaks the coast, the interior and the water, of course.
come from a region with the most productive agriculture in Europe but with a considerable water shortage for irrigation and human consumption. To this we have joined in recent years, the bricks, and unsustainable growth in housing for tourism or for a simple "change of residence" of the aborigines. Because yes, there have been many golf courses, but most water uses are not the same, but the 10 or 15 thousand homes annexed hereto, the 30 000, where there was core urban water be carried and water, out of nowhere, it is necessary for "human consumption." At present, many of which are unsold, but the water requirements consist established in weak environmental impact studies (in Murcia mere formality, for example) and plans. What about farmers? They are the only ones to suffer the slogan misuses WATER FOR ALL, because the "human consumption" were the only ones who have seen their crops die and those who have not received (usually) water for the maintenance of traditional farming, productive and real social good in the region I come from, is left to lose, by other interests. If no water for everything, you choose, but are no longer deceiving ... About this would have much to talk and discuss, those who know me know what I think, here I just wanted to show a view that, in Where I come from, you can not give without "suffering" glances and Philip, and put clarify a particular problem size on the water we have in Spain, where resources are inadvertently even look at other places where the needs are greater ... we still believe the navel of the world and essential ... WATER YES ALL ... starting with those most in need ... here we have it would be sufficient quality to make sustainable use of it.

Men And Breastfeeding
Back Box
processions in the fishing villages, the procession at sea have the inconsistency of the environment in which they occur. The Virgin and the saints of the day seem to levitate on the water, as the scriptures say once his boss or employer.
then to an end, there is a failure in the space, why not also in time, when it comes to the holy land. There is a commotion, people, fishermen, waiters, the brothers, between the sea and marinas, in no man's land with one foot on the foundering ship size do fall into the water some flowers. Firm, instruments hesitate, shy, some oboe you miss a note. Do not touch the band corresponding to the paso doble that outlines clearly who will be the four carriers of the step. Palmas. Screams and cheers punctuate the passage. Some salty tear runs devout earnest wrinkled cheeks. Something as intangible as faith, it becomes liquid in the eyes of the ladies and whispering in your speaker.
The weaving of the image, faithful men who are headed to the church begins to conclude the procession. Some
rocket pierces the dark sky pastel color.
Well, another year meets the sea, people comply with the routine and the landlady, with honors and the national anthem sounds stale crosses the threshold of the church.

Period Due Tomorrow But I Feel Sick
For a month mixing the green shoots and leaves of the vine, with the reflection ocher reverberating afternoon sun on the majestic tower of the cathedral, who was born Gothic, Baroque decorated to finish. The sound of the fairs, the smell of cotton candy, the children still adorn the streets at odd hours, unusual in other seasons.
September is a state of mind, return. No break in the vacuum, because you come from the streets full of histrionic and shrill summer, the streets filled with decadent pastel color this time.
Eager or not, but with new collectible: Historic coffee grinders, in a bundle, 100 grams of Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee for only € 4.99.
Everything is different, however, people I find most odd, strange, no ... think about it.

Ear In Fection With Blood
Organizing the unemployed in the Bronx in 1930 (Rose Chernin, 1949)
At the time, who had heard of the eight hours?, If a man had had an accident at his job, do you think your employer would have given a penny for it? Why would care? There would always be another poor to replace him. Even the idea of \u200b\u200ba union was a new concept worldwide. Nobody expected decent wages. The other, privileged, had been born up there. We were in the background. The idea that we had the right to strike was difficult even to imagine.
What could we do? What could a person, a woman who does not even reach five feet in height, to change the world? I'll tell
. It's a good story, because by that time we began to organize. Unemployed councils formed. Were spontaneous organizations of people and I want that I may know and help organize from the first day. I was involved in this activity before joining the Communist Party.
would open an office in the middle of the neighborhood. Arrive in the morning, prepare coffee, donuts and people would babble. Suddenly, another person come and say "Hi, how are you?"
"I just fired."
And you should hear the cry of "Hurrah! Another fired. Barbarian. "
We would look as if we were crazy. Why do we have to conclude that he had been fired? For it would mean that no salary, could not rent would have no place to sleep, nothing to eat. So why were we excited? We said "We are glad you're here. So we have a person to distribute the pamphlets. "
This was the way that made the terrible things that were happening to this man, and all of us in a productive action. Would take control of our lives. Would no longer be victims.
It's that simple. I used to wonder why people do not see it that way too. Can not fail. Basically, failure is impossible, since by being united, have changed the personal tragedy, the despair, this hopelessness, and have become a collective effort.
Our main task was to get a congressman to introduce a law for unemployment insurance. We circulated a petition door to door, for all parcels in the Bronx.
elapse
A typical meeting like this: I and another person would enter the building and call on the first door that we find. Someone, usually a man, would open the door. Just an inch. Then, after ascertaining that it was not the landlord, would open at all. I would say "We are circulating a petition asking a congressman introduced a bill in Congress. We want unemployment insurance and we believe we can make the government grant us. Is there anyone without a job in this family? "
" Are you kidding? Nobody has a job in this family. "Or say" Most of us are unemployed, you work but expects to get fired at the end of the week. "
We said" We are also unemployed and want Congress to pass a law that or give us work or wages. " Do not believe it and said "Are you going to ask the government to give us money without working?" People did not believe that such a thing pidiésemos.
and answered "Yes, ask the government to give us employment. If you can not give us a job, you have to stay. " "But what you are asking is socialism." "We work or money."
we organized around our basic needs. We could talk easily with people because we were also workers. I always find it strange that people do not unite us. I used to think about this because to me the organization was essential. You will ask, perhaps, because I became a communist. But I used to wonder why the rest did not. Basically, I felt that those people who joined us had no confidence or the fact that we could change the system. Are saying "we are just poor people, what can we do?" Would hear this when we called at the door.
I, on the other side, he could convince them to fight their condition. He believed in this fight. It's everything you need to be an organizer. Believe in our power.
For example: We thought one of the things he feared the system was pissed off women. We wanted milk for children. So, we brought together twenty or thirty women. We would leave early one morning. We would go to the entrance of the Municipal District. Would demand to talk to a councilor. Each of us would take a child a stroller. Nina had three or four years, always came with me.
Who could forget such an image? There was a woman in a red sweater with the sleeves rolled up. Another with a headscarf. Faces with looks of determination. And the children, one with a blue cap that he had woven his grandmother. Nina had an open face with a cheerful look. And move forward together, first a step to the left, then another right. We sang, shouted: "We want milk. Milk for children. "
'd go down the street doing propaganda for the neighborhood councils. We asked people who approached and told them to bring in what that they could share. There was always something to eat on the boards. People would go, the would get to work in a pamphlet, the involve in a conversation. Being in contact with the street in those days, between hopelessness that you could imagine the impact that the Council on them.
Women organized to observe the price of food all the time. If an item became too expensive in a particular store, they put us on strike immediately. Again, we would return with the children in their strollers. Mount a picket line with the theme: not frequent this store. Charge too much for bread . These
strikes were successful. No cross our picket line.
The same was happening in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Harlem. In Harlem starvation was legion and soup kitchens could not supply people with enough food. From the Council used to move all we could to Harlem.
The struggle of people against their conditions is where you find the meaning of life. In the worst cases these units to other people. If you had five blocks, the particles in ten pieces and everyone ate well. If someone was twenty cents, went to the corner, bought some bread and brought it back to Council.
Life changes when you get together in this So when you join. Lose the fear of being alone. You can not solve these problems when you are alone. Become unbearable. When you are alone, face to face with the pattern he has all the power and your no. But together, we feel our strength, and we laugh. Who knew how it would start singing. Others would know how to dance. There we were, the unemployed, but dancing.
In those years I was happy. "Happy, you say? "With unemployment, evictions, high food prices? But that's how I felt. Why? In those years I became what would become my whole life. And this is the root of happiness, what else?
If you are an organizer and see the satisfaction of the people who are joining you feel accomplished. We were successful in our activities. We kept the prices down, lobbied Congress, we did that people were aware of their identity as workers, and we were winning the rent strikes
... At that point the Unemployed Councils were well known: our workers were everywhere , leading demonstrations, circulating petitions, talking at every corner. So we go to a building, present ourselves and would ask people to be organized. We said "While we are doing strike since then not pay the rent. Say that the strike lasts three months. These rentals will never be paid. "
People listened, the idea appealed to them. We promised we would fight the eviction and that we would help those who end up in the street. In those days you could walk down the street and see sitting on the sidewalk surrounded by families to complete furniture.
When a building was completely organized and ready to participate in the strike, we formed committees negotiating for tenants, we placed large banners in each window that gives to the street and rode pickets. In the banner could read: Strike rent. Do not rent apartments in this building .
The landlord, of course, would rather die than accede to the demands of tenants. So the strike had begun. We knew that someday send eviction notices. But I could never evict everyone. It costs too much.
the day of the eviction we would tell the men to abandon the building. We knew that the police were violent and give them a beating. Women who would continue in the apartments, with intent to resist. Put us in the fire escape and through a megaphone we'd head to the crowd who gathered under there.
In the Bronx you can reach a hundred people gather just by looking at the sky. As soon as the police began the eviction, acordonábamos the area and people gathered. The police put their guns on the rooftops, targeting people who was in the street.
We, meanwhile, we were standing on the balcony. I would lead the crowd in the street. "People, co-workers. We are the women of the unemployed and the police are evicting. Today we are. Tomorrow will be you. Prepare and see. What is happening to us will happen to you. We have no employment. We can not buy food. Our rentals are too high. The sheriff has brought to the police to take away our furniture. Are you going to let this happen? "
Sometimes we'd head to workers who had been hired to take the furniture:" I speak to you men who have come to bring you the furniture of unemployed workers. Who are you? You, too are workers who have accepted this job just to eat. Do not blame. You are of us. Represent the Council of the Unemployed and yesterday afternoon we made a collection. We have enough money to pay. How will draw by evicting an unemployed worker? "Five dollars? "Six dollars?. We have the money. Come here without the police or the sheriff and I will pay. Look to the officer standing there. Are you working? Let him do his work. "
Arengaríamos. We could see the men faltered. Would continue: "We women are here with the furniture to be evicted. The hot water in our kettles. The doors are closed. Do not let go. "
Often, the workers would come anyway. Our doors were closed but the break. We were behind the doors, with the pots. Grab a cabinet on one side and we would grab on the other. And both would throw away. Meanwhile we would say "Here's the money. Let the furniture. "
Some would catch the money and leave. Other times they would launch the hot water. Others would beat us. And then run to the fire exit, clutch no megaphone and shout to the crowd: "We are sticking. They are great and we are sticking. But we will not let it move the furniture. Can not beat us. We will win. "
sometimes outraged by so much fighting and screaming, would remove the furniture from the apartments but would leave on the landing. That was a victory. We would be there waiting to return the men and then return to take them inside. I would change the lock on the door and the landlord would have to put a new eviction notice. Call the sheriff and everything will start again.
Our struggle was successful. Rents fell, evicted families returned to their apartments, landlords would leave us alone. Sometimes we lose and end up in the street furniture. Immediately cover them with canvas to prevent food spoilage, and then would hold a mass meeting in the furniture, using it as a platform. We were expecting him to leave the police. As soon as he went, people carried the furniture and took them back into the building. Would break the lock, would place the furniture, you'd install a new lock, and the landlord would have to go through the same procedure again.
In two years we had the control of rents in the Bronx. So things were done then.
The things we take for granted today, and as part of American life, ideas were revolutionary when they began to demand in the thirties. We wanted to unemployment insurance; wanted aid for homes, hot meals in schools, and housing for the homeless who lived in the city dumps.
At the time, who had heard of the eight hours?, If a man had had an accident at his job, do you think your employer would have given a penny for it? Why would care? There would always be another poor to replace him. Even the idea of \u200b\u200ba union was a new concept worldwide. Nobody expected decent wages. The other, privileged, had been born up there.
