An African Who Made a Video Against Catalan Separatism Is Attacked With Racist Insults<\/a><\/rel>
\nA Separatist Journalist: \"The Supremacy of the Catalan Race Is Respected in the World\"<\/a><\/rel><\/p>\n

In the tweet<\/a>, this group includes an image in which compares Spaniards with chimpanzees and threatens them with kicks in the back if they do not stay back:<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On October 16 they published<\/a> another image comparing monkeys to Spaniards -including many Catalans- who consider Catalonia is Spain:<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This separatist and racist group participated on May 26 at a rally attended by Frederic Bentanachs, one of the founders of the terrorist group Terra Lliure<\/a>, as well as several councilors of the PDCAT (the party of Carles Puigdemont) and a deputy of Junts pel S\u00ed, the separatist coalition formed by the old Convergence and the Republicans of ERC.<\/p>\n

Racism: a frequent vice in Catalan separatism<\/big><\/p>\n

It is not the first time that Catalan separatism has fallen into racism, as I pointed out here<\/a>. For many years Catalan separatists have often used derogatory references to the rest of the Spaniards - for the Catalans are also Spanish - comparing them with Jews, Berbers and Africans (as if being a Jew, a Berber or an African was something bad) and attributing to the Catalan people a European, Celtic and even Aryan ancestry<\/a>. The paradox is that more than a million Catalans descend from Andalusians<\/a>, and as is logical, many Catalans have ties of kinship with the rest of the peoples of Spain. Despite this, some separatists do not stop resorting to a detestable racism as part of their hate speech against Spain.<\/strong> A hatred that has been fostered in many Catalan schools<\/a> at the initiative of separatist teachers and that has had the support of the nationalist government of that Spanish region.<\/p>\n
