Dear Steemians,

Today I want to share with you my photo documentary of Sunday! 📷📷

Hundreds of thousands of Spaniards from Catalonia and elsewhere have invaded the streets of Barcelona. They protested today against independence. ❌

A week after the banned self-determination referendum ☐ that triggered an unprecedented political crisis in Spain, the 'silent majority" is awakening.

As soon as I arrived on the Rambla (famous street of the center of Barcelona), I heard a lot of people singing in Spanish and Catalan. People said: "Viva Cataluña! Viva España!♪♫♬♩

Every day, in the media, we show just violence and blood. But I wanted to show us, a different aspect. This demonstration was totally pacifist, without overflowing. It almost made you want to go. But I preferred to take pictures and watch people parades.


My favorite... ♡

This spectacle was impressive and beautiful too. I saw people united, proud, and happy...

I really wanted to share with you this historical moment, before Spain takes a decision in the days to come. I do not know how the future of the country will be. I have lived here for only one month and I try to understand all the political and economic issues. One thing is certain, that if Catalonia becomes independent, there are many things that will change. I will be concerned directly as an expatriate. But at the World level there will be many repercussions.

Besides, I invite you to read the blog of @mangoo0007 which speaks about the impact on cryptoworld.

Interesting to see and learn about this topic through the eye of a foreigner in spain, not only get the filtered informations from world press!
It was very informative and the photos are beautiful too. They communicate an optimistic atmosphere.

I am happy if my post gives that impression. That's what I wanted. So that people see another view of the subject without giving political opinion. In the media there will always be political influence so they show what they want....
That's why I stopped watching TV!

I love Barcelona and have been a few time! Would love to take a trip down there right now. Thanks for sharing :)
