A la Bastille, for a Real Democracy

E SI LOS FRANCESES TAMBIEN MANIFESTARON
SU INDIGNACION?



Published in October 2010, the pamphlet "Indignez-vous!"/Time for Outrage, by Stephane
Hessel,
quickly made ​​its way into the minds already made ​​alive by the financial scandals
that
has led
to one of the major international crises.

A few months later, Hessel's call seems to have triggered an alert:
"CRITICALSYSTEM ERROR, PLEASE REBOOT FOR A REAL DEMOCRACY!"



[1. RéelleDémocratie, Live streem from the Bastille - 2. A la Bastille, May 29/2011]

Manifesto of the 2011 revolutionaries
"Since the beginning of the financial crisis in 2008, our leaders have decided to crush the people instead of charging
the banks. European democracies have been hijacked by the financial markets. We are caught around the throat
by austerity plans that multiply across Europe.
Unemployment has soared and plunged millions into poverty and misery. The crisis affects everyone. In France,
while profits doubled on the CAC 40, youth unemployment reached 25%. In Spain, 40% of those under 35 are
unemployed. In response, the Spanish people rose up. Since May 15, tens of thousands of Spaniards are camped
out day and night. Real Movement Democracia Ya! (Real Democracy Now!) is organised around two main demands:
regeneration of the democratic political system and advocacy of proper social policy…
Following a solidarity rally organized by Spaniards living in France, we citizens who recognise the aspirations of the
Spanish people urge everyone to become an actor for dynamic change. The revolt of the Arab countries across the
Mediterranean and the uprising of the Spanish people has sent a clear message to all Europeans, let us seize this
opportunity. Faced with a political oligarchy that holds all power, we demand the convening of a Constituent Assembly
to remind our leaders that the only sovereign (as in sovereign debt!) is the people!“
