As I was born on 15-M
. Friday. Seven o'clock. Fifty people were renen in the Courtyard of Wonders, an old building in Madrid in the bowels of Malasaa. Academics, professionals, unemployed, young and not so young come together in the third assembly of the platform and real democracy. Many do not know each other so only cigars coincided travs of calls on Facebook or internet forums.
Sunday 15 May. The Puerta del Sol, eve isk, and other Spanish cities places are suddenly filled with indignation. The movement continues to grow and is drawn into the electoral campaign. In just three weeks, a platform to travs arising from social networks has been able to get to the street people ams union protests on May 1. And distort the campaign.
This is very well, but someone had, everquest 2 platinum, to have the first idea, fifth is the founder of this movement, Questioned the concentrates a lady that passed Tuesday by the Puerta del Sol Nobody believes that this view of people gathered in central Madrid has come all the way full Preparing spontaneous in the polls. It was not the only one that has been asked this, eve isk for sale, question during the last days.
Fabio Gndara is a person who knows the answer. In February l believe in Facebook Platform for Co-ordination Group of pro Mobilisation citizen groups, turned out to be seeds of real democracy now. Gndara says the idea was conceived in autumn bean, when friends talked to other friends from various cities and began to have contacts in social networks. Then send mail and Internet messages will bloggers and independent associations inviting them to join. Therefore, the skepticism seems justified: all was ready months in advance when the network mobilisations against Sinde Act began to be implemented. That was the spark, for its part says Enrique Dans, professor of Information Systems at IE Business School and one of the promoters of the platform will not vote.
Before Law Sinde "Rodriguez says there was much uproar in the network and attempt to leave sb in the street, but failed because he had little organization. AFTER Christmas, from various forums and blogs are starting to think about moving from internet to the street. On 10 January, for example, someone created from a blog called Democracy Galicia real. The first post is titled with a step begins a long journey and reveals that during Christmas dinner a couple of people who will be orphans of representation were in getting down to work for a real structural change. The author of the post, which he admitted not having actively participated in the platform-end warning: Today begins the journey. Trust in our country.
And on Feb. 9, in another blog, I get a draft of a manifesto under the title May 68 in Spain in the fixing the main demands has been maintaining this movement. The idea came from a group of bloggers who were found on the web and decided to organize to hold a protest before the municipal elections, says Paul Gallego, one of the first spokesmen organizaciny who has lived in first person the birth of real democracy from the beginning.
Hot February
February Mobilisation be essential for the different groups, especially in the Facebook group created by Gndara, but also on Twitter, spurred mainly by the No votes. Everything goes so quickly that in early March, already reveals the chosen date for going out, 15-M, and begins to suggest the name of real democracy now. The first face to face meetings are held at The Granada House, a restaurant next to the Madrileo Station of Tirso de Molina. But the site is immediately pequeoy they had to move to the Court of Wonders. It was in that place where meetings were held in which organizes the logistics of the protest and the consensus is a motto for the platform.
Democracy was christened Real We are not merchandise of politicians and bankers. In early March, sent a statement to the press in which only gathered a half dozen organizations: Anonymous, Adesorg Unemployed Association, State of Unrest, Stand up, Acciny Youth Votes are not. His approach was so Simultaneous arouse the indignation and mass of the people for the abuses of politicians and economical powers. This handful of groups have multiplied. Today it is composed of more than 500 organizations.
To finance the demonstrations, which have joined groups of all kinds, put in place a system of grants to travs created a Paypal account (an online payment system). Also opened a banking account Triodos bank policy, and organized festivals to raise money. This is how it has paid for billboard, banners … says Pablo Gallego.
Afraid to mess up
Political parties here are not behind, we want expensive, we want ideas, said Carlos Rodriguez, another member. It is not the only one that refuses to give clues about the origin of the group. The majority of spokesmen insist that they do not want to put faces to move or talk openly about their beginnings. Even after having organized the successful marches of 15-M now seek to dissociate itself from that leadership, real democracy has ceased to be in front. They called the 15-M, but the citizens have followed the movement, said a young woman who is identified as being responsible for communication.
Gallego est convinced that there is no pretension whatsoever that this movement into a political party, yslo calls to quin think you vote. Insists that this is all we are here. Yet another companion confessed while raising a banner: S is a leader, but I do not want to identify. Carlos Rodrguez offers a compelling explicacinms: Many are inexperienced and we're afraid PUBLIC smack and then screw it up.
Some of the drivers
Pioneer
Fabio Gndara. All indications are that this attorney of 26 years was from the outset, one of the main drivers of the protest. In fact, February was the creator of the Facebook group that was the germ of the platform. And in the early hours of the camp, all go to Fabio to resolve any topics about which was emerging. From Santiago de Compostela, ended last year a Masters in Politics and territorial urbanstica in Madrid, and it is now unemployed. Compared to the sensitivities raised by the movement he helped create, he says that behind this there are ordinary people. That s, is surprised by the success of the protests: Our expectations have been surpassed, he said.
Spokesman
Pablo Gallego. Even though he was appointing spokespersons revolving platform that are not identified with a single face, the fact is that the Cadiz of 23 years carries a lot of weight as a spokesman during the first hours after the successful convening of 15 Study May last course of Investigaciny techniques in ICADE Market and now is making practices in a company. Argues that it is a heterogeneous platform, where there are people with conservative ideas and others with more progressive ideas. Our ideology est not defined and therefore can not classify it says
The designer
Carlos Rodr-guez. If something has been highlighted Real Democracy is already taking care of the message you wanted to convey to the last detail. One of his artfices is Carlos. Graphic designer, graduated from the Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, was commissioned to create the banners of the manifestation of May 15. Believe in what you are looking for Real Democracy Now with this protest is that the first people to hear the ideas. According to l, no need to put faces to the movement because the sides of the platform are all citizens who are in the Sun and how important are the concepts that are behind.
