Al cap i a la fi, qui té dret al monument?

Davant la defensa de la preservació de símbols feixistes o colonials sota el pretext de «no esborrar la història», la iconoclàstia popular i els (anti)monuments subversius reclamen el seu lloc per a les lluites anticapitalistes, antipatriarcals i antiimperialistes.

L'escassetat de teories radicals sobre els monuments ha transformat la discussió sobre la seva conservació, resignificació i destrucció en una batalla ideològica.

Els monuments són la materialització de les idees dominants i tenen la seva raó de ser en el poder econòmic. On l'ordre colonial i capitalista segueix intacte, de la mateixa manera que els seus conglomerats empresarials i oligarquies estatals, les places continuen dominades pels «grans homes».

The rules-based international order? No, no. It is really the US commands-based international order.

Government retreats on Victims of Communism memorial names in aftermath of Nazi controversy Historians raised alarms years ago. Ottawa changed course only after the memorial opened.

Canada having to take the names off the Victims of Communism memorial because there were too many Nazis is perhaps a good moment for some reflection on how many Nazis were welcomed here after WWII.

I can’t believe Asad Haider has passed away. His book Mistaken Identity from 2018 on how identity politics is a neoliberal construction to neutralize anti racism and progressive movements was so cynically maligned by some real humanities grifters.. We needed his voice. RIP. What a loss

Nos ha dejado Asad Haider, una mente brillante, militante socialista y uno de los fundadores y editores de la revista Viewpoint Magazine

¿Tiene fundamentos científicos la resignificación del Valle de los Caídos? “La base y la cruz” convertirá el monumento en un espacio de “diálogo” y “democrático”. Pero la historia del arte, la sociología y la psicología demuestran lo contrario.

Ayer publicamos un tema interesantísimo en @es.theconversation.com de @danielpalacios.bsky.social sobre la resignificación del Valle de los Caídos. Bastante apasionante la discusión. theconversation.com/tiene-fundam...

És per això que és important continuar mobilitzades!

Newham International Brigades Memorial to be unveiled at Old Spotted Dog Ground - Clapton Community FC Before Saturday's Men's First Team game, we are unveiling the Newham International Brigades Memorial with a ceremony inside the Old Spotted Dog Ground.

The interview also gives a shout-out to the new monument at the @claptoncfc.co.uk's ground, honouring the International Brigades. In a time of historical amnesia, this community-funded project is a tangible commitment to keeping antifascist praxis alive.
