A couple of days ago I had an interview with a man in his fifties, professional, militant leftist since adolescence, a member of the Socialist Party today.
Except for a brief meeting that apparently had had more than 20 years ago, and I could not remember, we did not know. We talk about things that had nothing to do with politics. When we finished and we were going to fire, he said: "Before
I go I want to congratulate you on your book.
what I asked. Stories concerned Tupamaro . I said, words, words less (I was not recording or taking notes because it was not a talk journalism): "I
in those years was" bocamaro "ie tupamaro mouth. And my own experience I know that many things were exactly as told in the book. Other not lived, but the testimonies collected were categorical. It's a shame how tupamaros have rewritten history, telling a fairy tale that has nothing to do with what happened in reality. And today's young people believe it all. They were born to fight against the dictatorship, for example. Of course, the fairy tale is much nicer than the reality ...
not the first time it happens. Frente Many have told me the same thing. They know that the story was invented pink MLN is a lie. Thank you Stories Tupamaro dared to confront the myths of MLN.
It seems strange to me because the book is not left nor right, but simply tries to provide testimony, documents and a new perspective on an important part of recent history.
The Argentine philosopher José Pablo Feinmann, a benchmark of progress, wrote days ago in Page 12 on how the membership should be left today:
"If you want to admire Che as a symbol of rebellion, perfect. If we take as a hero and martyr of the armed struggle and the focus (theory that gave him a Frenchman of that period: Regis Debray and Guevara perfected and put into practice, a disastrous practice that undoubtedly had the dignity impeccable die, put your body next to their ideas, painfully wrong, hence this body riddled with a poor finish and scared Bolivian soldier) the road will be a disaster again. If we insist on both territorial and non-militancy in the violence, because violence was a bad way. "
That, exactly, is the subject Stories background Tupamaro .
So every time a member or adherent notorious Frente privately congratulated me for the book, besides the logical satisfaction, always haunt me the same question: why institutions left that is not pro frontage have ignored MLN Stories Tupamaro ? Why are their parties, their leaders, its journalists and intellectuals, but a couple of notable exceptions, have not ever said anything about the book?
striking: six consecutive years, nearly 6,500 copies sold, thousands of Frente grateful, however, that deep silence. Leonardo
