M a n i f e s t o Vote for Catalan Independence



M a n i f e s t o



Vote for Freedom: Vote for Catalan Independence


In 1979, before the hostile backdrop of the latter years of Franco’s dictatorship, large sectors of Catalan society thought that the contemporary statute would be a useful tool in the commencement of the process of self-governance, clamored for from the Assemblea de Catalunya, the popular multi-party organization of the day. Now, almost three decades later, we Catalans once again find ourselves at the edge of a referendum to ratify the text of a new statute, but today’s political situation is much different from that of thirty years ago. Never before has a referendum been put before us to approve a statute while a previous one was still in effect. For this reason, we now have a historical opportunity, and an inescapable duty, and our strength and maturity will allow us to take on new challenges that will lead us to a future of freedom.
We, the undersigned, diverse in age, condition, and ideology, demand that all citizens of Catalonia exercise their right to self-determination , and that they make a test plebiscite out of the referendum regarding the Statute: a test plebiscite for the Independence of Catalonia.
During the next vote on the Statute, we will be placing a paper with the legend ”I vote for Catalan Independence” into the official voting envelopes, and casting them into the ballot boxes.
We know that this explicit demand will bring our political agenda to the forefront: our right freely and independently to decide, without outside interference, the future of the Nation of Catalonia, and that it will become a point of reference for all the territories of the Nation of Catalonia.
For Democracy and for Freedom: Vote for Catalan Independence!

All You Fascists


All You Fascists
There's nothing new about what's happening today.
Freedom is not a physical state; it's like Happiness: it is a path to follow, an Ithaca whose existence is justified by our will to attain it.
Freedom is the natural state of man. Only if one is truly and deeply free is life worth living, and yours is the misfortune that you are not allowed to live your sex, your nationality, your beliefs, then it is worth it to you to devote your life to that freedom.


All you fascists are fighting a losing battle, because there will always be truly free people, like songwriter Woody Guthrie, who, with his Machine that Kills Fascists, said:




All You Fascists

I'm gonna tell you fascists
you may be surprised
The people in this world
Are getting organized
You're bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose

Race hatred cannot stop us
This one thing we know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow
And greed has got to go
You're bound lose
You fascists bound to lose

All of you fascists bound to lose:
I said, all of you fascists bound to lose:
Yes sir, all of you fascists bound to lose:
You're bound to lose! You fascists:
Bound to lose:

people of very color
Marching side to side
Marching cross these fields
Where a million fascists dies
You're bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose!

I'm going into this battle
And take my union gum
We'll end this world of slavery
before this battle's won
You're bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose!


Words by Woody Guthrie
Music by Billy Bragg
