The Youth of Mallorca for Language encourage participation in the Diada demonstration
The organization has also called on the Consell de Mallorca to reinstate the institutional events for the Diada on December 31st.
PalmThe Mallorca Day demonstration, which will start on December 30 at 6:00 p.m. on the Born promenade, will feature the participation of various Mallorcan youth organizations united with the aim of demonstrating the commitment of young people to the Island.
According to a statement released by Jóvenes de Mallorca por la Lengua (Youth of Mallorca for the Language) this Thursday, various organizations will march through the center of Palma under the slogan "Youth organized for Catalan, for culture, for Mallorca." They emphasized that the language "is what unites Mallorcans" and asserted the need for it to continue being a "tool for cohesion." They also called on the Consell de Mallorca (Island Council of Mallorca) to reinstate December 31st as the official date for the Diada (National Day of Mallorca), arguing that the celebration on September 12th represents a "loss of cultural identity."
