La Pasionaria Memorial
La Pasionaria Memorial
As you approach Custom House Quay, the eye is drawn to an unusual statue with arms outstretched. This is one of the few memorials in the country to groups of men and women who left Britain to join the International Brigades in Spain.

Spain in the 1930s was a fractious country, with groups from left and right committing political violence on a massive scale, and when, in 1936, fascist army officers staged a coup against the democratically elected government, outright civil war erupted.

While Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany supplied aid to the Rebels, the democracies of Europe refused to help the government of Spain, and it was left to Communist Russia and the foreign volunteers to support the Republic.

The foreign volunteers in Spain were organised as the International Brigades and saw much heavy fighting throughout the three years of the war. Of the 2,000 or so Britons who fought in Spain, around a quarter were Scots. One hundred and thirty four of the Scottish Brigaders lost their lives in Spain, sixty-five of those hailing from the city of Glasgow.

The memorial was sculpted by the Communist artist Arthur Dooley in the mid-1970s and was unveiled in 1977. The figure represented in the statue is Dolores Ibarruri, better known as La Pasionaria, a fiery female politician from northern Spain, who was a popular figure within the Republic and well-known abroad for her rousing speeches in support of the Republic.

A quotation from La Pasionaria is written on the base of the statue: "Better to die on your feet than live forever on your knees."

The surviving members of the International Brigades left Spain in early 1939 as it became obvious that a Fascist victory was inevitable. La Pasionaria spoke these words at their farewell:

"Comrades of the International Brigades! Political reasons, reasons of state, the good of that same cause for which you offered your blood with limitless generosity, send some of you back to your countries and some to forced exile. You can go with pride. You are history. You are legend. You are the heroic example of the solidarity and the universality of democracy… We will not forget you; and, when the olive tree of peace puts forth its leaves, entwined with the laurels of the Spanish Republic's victory, come back!"

a passionária foi atropelada pela história e pelos fuzis, pior é que passarán...

 a razão do ódio, eu diria melhor, do repúdio e da repulsa é bem simples : decepção , desapontamento, pois do PFL e outros se esperava tudo, mas o PT prometeu tudo, claro que o tudo de um e de outro é um tudo diferente, se vc namora uma safada e ela te põe chifres, pode até ficar chateado, mas era da natureza dela, agora a tua santinha se revelar devassa com os outros...devia ter avisado antes, né ? tambem quero o meu.
