del 27 de octubre al 1 de noviembre de 2015
Esta segunda edición de CineMigrante Barcelona se plantea en un contexto en que las políticas migratorias europeas han dejado en evidencia su animo de represión, persecución y violación de derechos de la población migrante, tanto dentro como afuera de las fronteras Europeas. Demostrando también así el fracaso manifiesto de estas políticas migratorias en su afán de protección ‘nacional’ y de la construcción de la Fortaleza Europa.

Este año nos unimos a esta manitrans porque queremos apostar por las alianzas, porque nos parece importante trabajar con todas aquellas personas trans, bolleras, maricas, intersex, putas, migrantes, racializadas, tullidas, gordas, feministas, que entienden el sistema sexogénero como una pieza del engranaje capitalista, colonial y heteropatriarcal.
Estamos aquí porque en nuestros cuerpos se entrecruzan sistemas de opressión distintos pero intersectados, que nos afectan a todxs. Partimos de diferentes realidades, identidades, opresiones, privilegios y deseos. No somos uniformes ni buscamos la uniformidad; la heterogeneidad nos parece una riqueza y desde ahí nuestra resistencia agarra fuerza.
(Todxs) Resistamos colectivamente!

POR LA DESCOLONIZACIÓN Y LUCHA ANTIRACISTA!

In a context of extreme colonial violence which the migrant and refugee populations are currently experiencing in Europe, it can be useful and necessary to think about decolonising the museum. But there is a danger that it may become a matter that is totally out of context and even insulting if it does not place at its centre a discussion concerning the situation that is currently imposed by Europe’s migratory control system on which people come from the former colonies. Decolonising a cultural institution does not just mean considering the matter and organising exhibitions and seminars. In the current context, decolonising a museum requires a constant effort to take a position in regard to the migratory control system; it requires accepting that it is impossible to continue programming activities and events while there is a total normalisation of the existence of Migrant Detention Centres, forced deportation flights on a mass and individual scale, individuals with semi-rights and anti-rights, and situations of extreme violence in border zones which are the local contexts where these projects are presented. Decolonising a museum means sending letters to the Ministry of Interior, organising press conferences to condemn the use of culture in the discourse of integration, making the legal apparatus of the museum available to persecuted people; it means acknowledging the level of urgency imposed in the European context by the backbone of coloniality.

Angela Davis, activist and philosopher, associated with the Black Panthers in the 1960s-1970s. She joined the Communist Party when Martin Luther King was assassinated in 1968. Already in the 1970s she taught women’s and gender studies as well as African American studies in the US. Concurrently, she became a central figure in the African-American Civil Rights Movement in the US. She still investigates the intersections between oppression on grounds of gender, race/ethnicity and class in a globalised world.
