These days mark 15 years since the outbreak of 15-M, that movement which now seems like prehistory to us, like almost everything that happened before the pandemic, and which many of my students don't even remember, either because they didn't live through it or because history books take too long to incorporate truly relevant events. And even when they are incorporated, we look for subterfuges to tiptoe around uncomfortable episodes, as has happened with the systematic burial of democratic memory. That 15-M was, relevantly, so for various reasons.

The unions CSIF, SPPME, UGT, and CCOO have announced a series of protests, the first of which will take place on January 29 at 10:00 a.m. in Plaça de Cort, to demand the implementation of the Police Force Reorganization Plan, which was scheduled for January 1. "Not only has the agreed-upon commitment not been honored, but we are also watching with growing concern as no one takes any action, and we will likely face another term in office like this. We feel as though they are playing games with us and laughing in our faces," the organizations stated in a joint press release.
