The choirs of Santa Águeda boycotted the song

55
years ago

04 February 1969,

The choirs of Santa Águeda boycotted the song. Since 24 January, there has been a protest against the exceptional situation of the Franco regime throughout the Spanish State. In Gipuzkoa they had established since August of the previous year, after the shooting death of ETA of Meliton Manzanas, Head of the Political-Social Brigade of Gipuzkoa, collaborator of Gestapo and famous torturator. These were months of intense repression in the Basque Country and the citizens showed their anger in many ways.
