"We care about what happens beyond our borders?
Chaimay has decided to go to the demonstration against President Ben Ali, has nothing to lose. He has no job, nor his brothers either, and when you hear about the millions that the President, could not take it anymore, how is it possible that they are so poor and this man swim in the absolute abundance? Such is the humiliation that his feet have been forced to put his head up and away with such injustice. Like her, many decided to do the same, and became a massive rally, sure they would get to leave that dictator. It deceived have lived all these years, it is time to get democracy. It seems that the army is in their favor, certainly also have learned that accumulates the type and will not go against his people
Meanwhile, television pictures of the demonstrations passed that happen in the streets of the capital. Across the TV far away in Barcelona in particular, a family eating and watching the news. The mother, Carmen, is surprised when he hears:
- Tunisia?, Well, I thought there was always better, as is so tourist.
The father replies:
- Well, you see that another dictator like many of his fellow man advantage for him to live like a maharaja.
was just a simple comment, then all is forgotten, is far and they also have problems, not really are concerned, there are too many countries with similar conflicts, one more does not matter.
Meanwhile, in this demonstration, shouting slogans Chaimay favor of democracy, freedom and outside the government. They are lucky, the army is near but does not intervene, let them do. Many people are already tired of both give and take, are hungry and they do not solve their problems. When the demonstration ends, a foreign journalist was about to ask him some questions, she is not afraid and answered with ease. Later in his house, called the same reporter and invited him to a conference in Barcelona will on the situation in Tunisia, we will pay all travel and may include what you want. Using it, get a visa and travel to Barcelona.
The auditorium of the University of Barcelona is full to overflowing, there are a few minutes to start the conference Chaimay, suffers a little embarrassed, but has been told that is natural and everything will be fine. The university president presents and start the conference. Chaimay fluently describes the situation in his country and especially women who are struggling, many are threatened, some were trying to criminalize calling them traitors. Recently, a lawyer will put a flammable liquid in his car, fortunately nothing happened but could have exploded, his companion some staged a strike hunger, even came to the fifty-two days. After one of her fellow burned to the Bonze, the police take away everything he had, the situation became untenable.
in the seats, Laura listened with my mouth open the story of this girl not more than twenty years, he had lived longer than she and her mother together. In a country that its leaders did not care about the people the least. His expression changed by hearing those words filled moments of force that it caused an immense sense of indignation. Back home, he could not help to discuss with their parents what they had just experienced, these being those in front of the TV were not able to do more than a brief comment, now looked at his daughter attentive to what he had heard from the mouth of one of the protagonists of that event. The daughter opened their eyes, these people were like them, with some problems they have long lived, and believed forgotten since the death of the dictator. Now, something stirred within her being, perhaps they would change the attitude to so many events that occur beyond our own borders.
