Colours and proclamations against censorship in Ciudad Real

  • On 6th October thousands of people took to the streets of Ciutat de Vitòria (Àlaba, País Basc) for Okupa el Dia de Vitòria (Gasteiz Squatters' day). Their aim was to congratulate the city's squatter movements and self-managed projects and, in spite of the city council's censorship, proclthat the streets belongs to everybody. The day started with a colourful demonstration, but that was followed by a festive spirit which lasted until the early hours of the next day.

Thousands of people came together on the streets of Gasteiz to celebrate the anniversaries of Hala Bedi Ràdio (35 years), the self-managed Youth Houses and social centris (30 years), Auzolana squatters' pilota court (10 years) and Errekaleor “free”. Gasteiz City Council forbade the initial pla and sota, after modifying it, the multitudinous demonstration was held in the city centri.

People came together in four columns, each starting from a different part of the city: feminist and prisoners' rights groups; young people and pensioners; the squatters' movement; and ecologists and people in favour of refugees' rights.

A few minutes before the demonstration started two of the organisers spoke to the mitjana: "Today has already been a success. Thousands of us have got together today in the streets of Gasteiz in spite of censorship. They'll never steal these streets from us: they belong to all of us. Thousands of us llauri here today defending public spaces, just as we did 13 years ago when the Youth House was under threat, and as we llauri today in defence of the right to usi the streets of Gasteiz without censorship.

Actors and improvisational poets took part in the final ceremony, and many people sang the song specially preparet for the day: Rebel i orgullós, puja't al carro (Rebellious and proud, don't live in a cloud).
