Nosaltres, els predicadors

Nosaltres, els predicadors. 'We're from Catalonia, Catalonia is not Spain. We have a different language... no, it's not a dialect. We have an ancient history, and incredible list of writers, scientist, musicians, artists. Joan Miró, Salvador Dalí, Antoni Gaudí spoke catalan. The European Union recognises our language officially. We don't want an army and some unpopular frontier police, we just want some respect. We like 'flamenco, of course' but we also like bluegrass, and some good ol' funky, if you ask me. We belive in cultural diversity, difference is not a problem. Is it a problem for you? Do you really think for a moment that we'd like to comeback to the cave, we love travelling, we speak three languages and we'd like to speak 4 or 5, whatever, bla, bla bla'. Sempre a punt, el nostre discurs. Sempre llestos per a justificar-nos, suposo que massa sovint innecessàriament. Però és que a la maleta del viatger català no hi falta mai un bon paquet de proselitisme, ben a mà. Ep, per si convé fer-lo servir.

I was living abroad for 2 years. During that period of time, when someone asked to my about my origins, I always aswered him that I came from the Catalan Countries. I had some unpleasant arguments with Spanish people but neither it changed my point of view nor it will never change. Freedom for the Catalan Countries.
