LA TRISTE REALIDAD DEL ACEITE DE PALMA.. Boicot Los Productos!!

Boicoteamos todos los productos con Aceite de Palma ! (mira lista ingredientes..Palm Oil)..Solo para hacer más ”beneficios” DESTRUYEN ecosistemas enteras, echando a la basura los habitantes humanos y animal. Pueden usar por ejemplo, aceite de maiz o girasol, un poquito más caro.

”Por mi parte, haré boicot tanto a la Nocilla y a la Nutella como a cualquier producto con aceite de palma. Habrá a quien le parezca una estupidez, pero yo no veo tontería alguna en boicotear un producto que fomenta la deforestación y ha llevado a la cuasi extinción a al menos dos especies animales (orangután de Borneo y Tigre de Sumatra). Considero que es una cosa muy seria con la que es fácil comprometerse en nuestro papel de consumidores informados, exigentes y, por qué no, poderosos.” la tia Maruja

El aceite de palma es el más utilizado del mundo, pudiéndose encontrar en diversos productos que la mayoría de la gente consume de forma diaria, y seguramente muchos no lo sepan. ¿Sabías que el aceite de palma se encuentra en uno de cada diez productos en España? Todo esto a pesar de que no es la mejor alternativa desde el punto de vista nutricional, sin tener en cuenta el coste y el impacto ecológico así como social.

Muchos se preguntarán ¿QUÉ ES EL ACEITE DE PALMA?; el aceite de palma se extrae de los frutos de la palma africana o Elaeis guineensis, planta originaria del África occidental.

Actualmente se presenta como alternativa frente a las grasas hidrogenadas, las cuales ya se ha demostrada que son nocivas para la salud. Pero no es la mejor alternativa, ya que el aceite de palma tiene un gran contenido en grasas saturadas.

Letter from Pol: one of Anarchist Prisoners of Spanish State

By P.J.C
Hello and good health to all my female and male colleagues

I would like to send you out a letter as an anarchist , I feel that all our points of view are valid . just as long as we all seek to destroy the power, authority and the State. I think therein lies the beauty of our ideas and I understand all these pathways can coexist and merge together in search of a much desired total liberation.

I want to express my hatred, disgust and contempt for everything that encompasses the State, the power, authority and its special tool of annihilation called jail, with its cruellest aspect the isolation cell.

I have always defended the idea that as anarchists we have to be prepared and assume that at any moment may come a day when we have to go to jail which, in my opinion, is logical because when you want to destroy the state, it tries to stop you and you end up locked up in order to wipe you out or paralyze you. But despite all this, they will not succeed. However if circumstances mean you don’t have to go to jail, the better for everyone!

I’m feeling OK physically and mentally. and still believingb the same as before entry and if possible, reaffirmed in most of my ideas, with my head held high and proud of what we are. I am how I behave and relate in theory and praxis, but always self-critical, so as to keep growing and never stop learning and I by saying all this I do not feel I’m better or worse than anyone else.

No God, No Boss, No Husband..La Voz De La Mujer

La Voz De La Mujer ( The Womens Voice) was the first anarcha feminist publication. Here you can watch (in Spanish) a film about their struggle ‘Neither God nor master nor husband’. The article about them in English is further down.

sorry can’t find it with English subtitles

Ni Dios, ni patron, ni marido (see FILMS), una película que nos hablará de un personaje real, Virginia Bolten (1870-1960), redactora de la primera publicación feminista latinoamericana denominada “La voz de la mujer”, editada en la clandestinidad entre 1896 y 1897, donde se aportó por primera vez una perspectiva anarcofeminista en la defensa de los derechos elementales de la mujer y las trabajadoras.

Llamada la Luise Michel rosarina, Virginia Bolten es uno de esas personajes adelantados a su época, silenciados por la historia oficial, que por suerte el tiempo no ha olvidado. Ni Dios, ni patrón, ni marido narra los hechos que culminaron en la creación de La voz de la mujer, el periódico anarcofeminista desde el cual un grupo de pioneras bregaba por el amor libre, la igualdad de derechos y el fin de toda dominación cuando aún no despuntaba el siglo XX.

La pelicula cuenta los acontecimientos que protagonizaron un grupo de obreras textiles junto a la anarquista Virginia Bolten y la estrella del canto lírico nacional Lucía Boldoni, quienes se unieron en pos de un objetivo: la edición de un periódico hecho por mujeres para mujeres que acercara a miles de trabajadoras la lucha por la construcción de una identidad autónoma dentro y fuera del hogar.

La Voz de la Mujer, el primer periódico anarcofeminista de Latinoamérica, se imprimió en forma clandestina cuando la policía y la escasez de recursos se lo permitieron; los 2000 ejemplares de cada uno de sus nueve números recorrieron fábricas y talleres brindando el espacio para difundir ideales de libertad e independencia, instalar el debate sobre el amor libre, el matrimonio, la revolución social, los abusos del poder y enseñar a las madres a educar a sus hijos en igualdad de derechos.

Shack Diaries

– No God, No Boss, No Husband:
The world’s first explicitly anarchist-feminist group was created as part of the thriving nineteenth-century Anarchist movement in Argentina. It produced the first anarcha-feminist newspaper, La Voz de la Mujer. Sadly, the history of anarchist-feminism in Argentina has rarely been acknowledged, at best mentioned in passing, at worse ignored or forgotten.
La Voz de la Mujer was published in Buenos Aires only nine times, beginning on January 8, 1896 and ending almost exactly one year later on New Year’s Day. Its donors included “Women Avengers Group,” “One Who Wants to Fill a Cannon with the Heads of the Bourgeois,” “Long Live Dynamite,” “Long Live Free Love,” “A Feminist,” “A Female Serpent to Devour the Bourgeois,” “Full of Beer,” “A Man Friendly to Women.”
