Hia all,
I hope this is a good thread to share an interview to a member of "PODEMOS" (yes we can) political party in english.
One of our Occupy fellows in Australia had the chance to interview a member of the political party in Spain that gave the rotten establishment a cool surprise last May 25th at the EU parliament elections.
The audio is here: http://perthindymedia.org/2014/06/02/jesus-castillo-podemos-spain-candidate-in-the-recent-european-parliamentary-election/
I am personally not a supporter of this political party but I think some of you can be interested in hearing from the source in order to understand and form your own opinion about the situation here.

I sent this message to the squares list  squares@lists.takethesquare.net less than 2 days ago and I got the same response as Ulrike.
Sol,

Reconozco mi naturaleza fractálica
Adopto una perspectiva modular de mi mente
Crece la conciencia multidimensional de mi ser

I acknowledge my fractalic nature
I adopt a modular vision of the mind
The awareness of my multidimensional being grows

Thanks Bernando, especially for your excellent article, which will open the series.

You would be surprised by the ignorance that many social actors (specially the most traditional) have in regards the new political practices. I think your article will give some light there.

And yes, I hope that this articles reach a wider public as well, however exchanging lessons and strategies between different social movements is already very important.

All the best,

Sol

Quite interesting, Sol

We need to undestand what is happening in the social movements. Not us (I think we now), but the whole society. I hope you like my text around Network Movements

Best

COMING SERIES: AT THE CROSSROADS - EUROPE'S MOVEMENTS RESPOND 

Media coverage of the European elections has focused on the disturbing rise of the far right, but much less on the advance of progressive
forces in Greece, Spain and to a lesser extent in other countries undergoing austerity policies. The media have also been blind to the
inspiring struggles waged by diverse social movements across Europe. The direction for Europe is at a political crossroads, but we believe it is
possible to advance a vision of Europe not based on nationalism and repression of minorities, but based on solidarity and democracy. 

With a series of articles "At the crossroads - Europe's movements respond" we aim to provide well founded analysis by and for the European
social movements acting against the EU crisis regime. TNI asked some of the most relevant European social movements of the last years what
strategic lessons can be learned from recent resistance, the challenges we currently face and how to be prepared for upcoming struggles. 

Starting next week with a reflection from writer and journalist Bernardo Gutiérrez about "Network movements", we will publish short articles
from the Water Anti-privatisation movement, Blockupy, the Debt Audit Campaign, Alter Summit and others to follow until the end of June. 

Do not miss this series of articles that aim to provide tools and insights so that we can continue to strengthen European Social Movements
and sharpen the effectiveness of our strategies and tactics in the new political conjunction created by the European elections. 

In solidarity,
