Nadia Ghulam - SI de Vallbona

Conference by Nadia Ghulam at SI de Vallbona


Nadia Ghulam, Afghanese, came to Catalonia five years ago to undergo surgery as a consequence of a bomb that exploded in her house when she was 9. She was in a coma for 6 months. When she got out of it, the muhjaidins killed his brother. Living in Afghanistan, where women lack freedom and rights, she disguised herself as a boy (Zalmai) to help feed her family: mother, a father that became mentally unbalanced, and two little sisters. She currently lives in Badalona with what she calls her Catalan family.

On the 29th February 2012, she delivered a conference for our students and presented her book


The Human Rights - Núria Garcia Roman


THE HUMAN RIGHTS

When we are born we have rights,
the right to be free.
Walk around the world
without asking for permission.
Have the freedom to believe
in anything you would like.

Because there aren’t any frontiers,
races, religions, ages, genders,
any colours or flags.

Just love people for who they are,
not for what they have.
No war. People need to live in peace,
respecting each other.
And working together to make
a better world for the future.

Because there aren’t any frontiers,
races, religions, ages, genders,
any colours or flags.

Equality between men and women.
We must build a new world
where there are no differences.
Where violence, discrimination
And abuses are over.

Because there aren’t any frontiers,
races, religions, ages, genders,
any colours or flags.

We’ll build this better world with love,
Peace, humility, equality and freedom.
With a good education,
And by being healthy and safe.
Without strange diseases that
kill so many children every day.
All of us deserve to have food and
a warm place to live
where we can enjoy our free lives.

Because there aren’t any frontiers,
races, religions, ages, genders,
any colours or flags.

By Núria Garcia Roman, Spain.

·        Ulysses´ Gaze Best Scene







In october 1968 a filmteam managed to shoot the above video, using a hidden camera. This period, the famous Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis and his family (daughter Margarita and son Yorgos) lived in a small village Zatouna in Peloponnissos. The dictatorship kept him there under house arrest.

Some of his most impressive music was written in Zatouna; "the Arkadian cycles." In this footage you can hear Theodorakis read and sing the song Pelago (sea) which he was composed only some days after the coup of 1967.
