‘Haga que pase’: Make it happen!
25 août 2010
Anglais

‘Haga que pase’: Make it happen! The short documentary 'Mi FinK' shows the process of community organization and resistance. This participatory action arose in the face of vulnerability to losing the land: one of the few things that keep the community united and free. Since the abolition of slavery in Colombia, the land has sustained the food supply and the economy of the Afrodescendant people of Villa Rica. Today the sugar companies dominate the area, planting sugar cane as a monoculture, thereby forcing out the traditional small farms of the region.

Desde hace un poco más de un año, un grupo de organizaciones y colectivos ha trabajado en las herramientas jurídicas alrededor de la objeción de conciencia al servicio militar obligatorio.

Colombia does not recognise the right to conscientious objection. Conscientious objectors live with the permanent risk of recruitment by the Armed Forces of Colombia, in one of the frequent batidas, checkpoints set up by the military on busy streets or places, to check the papers of young people at recruitment age. In addition, they face further violations of their human rights.

05 août 2009

En una familia matriarcal, como muchas familias colombianas, de mujeres valientes que sacan adelante a esos hijos e hijas que tal vez fueron negados, y olvidados, nací y crecí, como una hija insólita y afortunadamente consentida. De pequeña conté con la compañía de un primo al que quiero profundamente, recuerdo cómo me gustaba ir al parque para verlo con su uniforme naranja de defensa civil, y también, cuando decidió regalarse al ejército nacional.
