Last December, the Assembly Housing for-Cáceres organized a video forum. Took two quarters of the documentary Cáceres " The Fortat " (The Hole), a documentary that tells the experience of the barrio La Rivera, Barcelona, \u200b\u200band modes of resistance in your neighborhood real estate speculation. The documentary was screened at the Village neighborhoods Moret Caceres and San Blas. In the discussion following the screening revealed that it is difficult to escape, but not impossible, from the clutches of speculation. Thus, in the historic center of Bangkok, in the Plaza Alta, little by little, have been driving out people from their homes to build new buildings. They have cleaned the historic center of "bad people" to book that part of the city to wealthy people, well regarded and the like. Aldea Moret, Caceres suburb where they live about ten thousand people, is an example of "vertical slums." Extremadura Board decided to eliminate all slums that were in the city. And had the brilliant idea of \u200b\u200blocking people in housing blocks of five or six floors, overcrowding and conflict among neighbors to the point that some people attribute the problem to Roma families. Dissatisfied with planning such an aberration, until recently the government of Extremadura has been threatening to destroy the village Mining Aldea Moret , a true example of industrial archeology. Over time, have been dismantling the old mining buildings. But the threat was to the point that they wanted to take a thirteen families that currently live and keep alive the old town. And all this, because neither the town nor the industrial archeology have value. I had in "Forat", a column of stone has different values \u200b\u200bin a neighborhood like cathedral Aldea Moret. Civic Platform was struggling to stop the proposed destruction of the Junta de Extremadura. Although it seems to be preserved and restored, we can not trust. The day the district Aldea Moret manifested in front of City Hall Cáceres to stop a draft Ecoparque (actually it was a dump and they wanted to place two miles from the city), the same day, while we yelled, we knocked down the former railway station Aldea Moret. A beautiful season of 1887. In short, feelings, common struggles, possible utopias, solidarity with our friends in the Rivera de Barcelona.
