Letter Margarita Porras. El País. (02/07/1931)
Hello friends, young people like me, without a home or buying opportunity like me, who have suffered employment discrimination due to pregnancy as I said and say that no war today as I , which have large gay friends and respect them like me who believe in equality, in dialogue as a legitimate way to get peace. I write because soon there are elections and talking to some of you, with whom I share many of these circumstances and the desire to improve, I've learned that you have no intention of going to the polls.
think that even if politicians and the odd good achievement is not enough and the political class does not deserve your respect. Legitimate position of abstention. But I, that you've been to governments that do not hear the cries of the street and now suffer some shouting in the street, I've found that the only weapon we have is the vote. I beg you, do not leave us defenseless against those who only want democracy when it suits them. To those who are willing we stay at home on election day because our abstention goes into government plans. I beg you to vote, you who are the best informed, that ye not manipulate, that you are mortgaging your youth for others to become rich. Vote for who you please, but Vote. There was a time in Spain nobody could.
