Making torture and hate acceptable

Posted on January 26, 2013 by Migrant Tales

Even if the media in the United States speaks of torture as something recent, the truth is that it has been going on for a very long time. These type of barbaric interrogation techniques were widely used in the last century in regions like Latin America. The CIA and the United States trained and promoted torture and state-sponsored terrorism in places like the School of the Americas.

Torture is not only a part of my history, but the legacy of millions of Latin Americans, Africans and Asians who are gripped today by drug wars, violence and poverty.  Matters have got so bad in the underdeveloped world that people are ready to risk their lives to migrate and work for slave wages.

One has to connect the historical dots when looking at undocumented migrants and immigration in general. It’s the same story taking place over and over again: we colonize, enslave, pillage, support dictatorships; we reap the greatest profit by promoting poverty and underdevelopment in these regions.

If you devastate a country’s democratic institutions and make a mockery of human rights, how can you on top of it ask people to live in the destruction you created?

It is surprising, if not incredible, that politicians in Europe still stigmatize migrants and refugees as “welfare shoppers.” Apart from exposing their greed, these types of politicians are making a clear statement: You have no right to opportunity and a better life.

The George W. Bush era (2000-08) not only brought to light the ugly face of USAmerica when it comes to torture and meddling in other countries’ affairs, it has inspired some critics to claim that Hollywood is now condoning it.

I personally have not seen the movie but if one surfs the web, one will find arguments for and against it.

Slavoj Žižek, a Slovenian cultural critic, wrote about Kathryn Bigelow’s film, Zero Dark Thirty,  on The Guardian:

”One doesn’t need to be a moralist, or naive about the urgencies of fighting terrorist attacks, to think that torturing a human being is in itself something so profoundly shattering that to depict it neutrally – ie to neutralise this shattering dimension – is already a kind of endorsement.”

Kuvankaappaus 2013-1-26 kello 8.30.39

Even Republican US Senator John McCain, a Vietnam POW who was tortured, has condemned the film.

”The story is torture does not work, it is hateful, it is harmful, incredibly harmful to the United States of America. And to somehow make people believe that it was responsible for the elimination of Osama Bin Laden is in my view unacceptable.”

In the same way some try to sell torture as acceptable is the same reasoning being used to convince us that social exclusion and exploitation of immigrants and visible minority group is fine.

Greedy businesses, and politicians at the service of the latter, reveal to us why matters will get worse before they improve.

Racism, prejudice, discrimination and social exclusion is all about defending the privilege of certain groups at the cost of others.

Undocumented immigrants are welcomed to Europe because it’s profitable in the short-term.

In the long-term, however, such contradictions and values will end up destroying us in the same way we destroyed other countries.

 

Exposición de Colonia Finlandesa, Argentina

Posted on December 4, 2012 by Migrant Tales

Esta exposición sobre la Colonia Finlandesa, Argentina, fue expuesta en las ciudades finlandesas de Kitee, Helsinki, Peräseinäjoki, Mikkeli, Tampere y Turku entre 2007 y 2010. La colonización finlandesa nace en 1906, cuando Arthur Thesleff lleva un grupo de ciento y pico de finlandeses a colonizar las selvas de Misiones en el noreste argentino. Los inmigrantes son mayormente sueco-parlantes y de ciudades como Helsinki. 

Esta exposición de la Colonia Finlandesa es una muestra humilde de esas historias que contarían si estuvieran vivos hoy.

Pinche aquí si quiere escuchar a los fino-argentinos que están en la exposición.

1/9: Llegada a Colonia Finlandesa

En la primera colina

a la derecha un yerbatal

a la izquierda una zona desmontada

los troncos cortados esperan

ser transportados a un aserradero.

Caminando colonia adentro

se acerca un hombre

de unos sesenta años

no es finlandés

con un diente de oro.

No se conocen

pero se saludan

porque el ladrido lejano de un perro

no hay nadie más que ustedes;

en alguna parte se escucha el viento

que acaricia los pinos

pero también se esfuma.

Todo parece tan vacío.

(Miércoles, 29 de agosto de 1984)

2/9: Svea Gumberg: Nacer en la historia

Tengo que admitir algo:

siempre he tenido miedo

de irme de esta colonia

proque es aquí

donde me siento segura.

Cuando venía

la gente del censo o autoridades,

yo me escapaba al monte.

Nunca me he ido de aquí

a no ser por una emergencía.

No tengo documentos

y por eso ninguna

autoridad sabe que existo.

Me da miedo que algún día

alguna autoridad me lleve de aquí.

Nadie en la Argentina se atreve

salir de su casa sin documentos

la policía y el ejército paran

a cualquiera hoy en día

con mucha facilidad.

Me voy otra vez de visita.

Me puse mi mejor ropa:

un vestido blanco,

decorado con flores azules.

Y zapatos nuevos.

(Svea murió el día siguiente cuando la entrevisté el 19 de diciembre de 1977. Ella murió cuando una víbora la picó. Nació en 1906, el mismo año que fue fundada Colonia Finlandesa.)

3/9: De Kitee a las selvas de Misiones

Karelianos, principalmente de Kitee,

buenos agricultores

plantaban tabaco y yerba mate (un té local)

que los finlandeses llamaban kuija.

También plantaban otros cultivos.

Los karelianos trajeron consigo

a Colonia Finlandesa läskisoosi

(salsa de tocino acompañado con papas)

y los carelianos la disfrutaron con buen apetito

aún con una temperatura ambiente de 35 grados;

algunos la comían diariamente.

Drante los 1920

llegó a Colonia Finlandesa

de Kitee casi un pueblo entero:

Los Laasonen, los Pirhonen, los Heino, los Malinen

dos familias Hirvonen y cuatro familias Lemmetyinen,

muchos Putkuri.

De soltero de Kitee llegaron

por lo menos Jussi Makkonen y Eino Parkkulainen.

Eran diferentes a los finlandeses de origen sueco

que llegaron en 1906

a muy pocos gustaba trabajar como agricultores.

Los de Kitee se identificaban con el trabajo de la tierra.

 

4/9: Antti Lemmetyinen despertó el interés en Misiones

El viejo Antti solía decir:

“No soy antipático, soy Antti Lemmetyinen.”

…Era el viejo Antti Lemmetyinen

quien despertó el interes de muchos de Kitee

a Colonia Finlandesa.

El viejo Antti llegó a la Finlandesa en 1908.

Se decía que él se había fugado de su mujer.

A veces Antti contaba

que había dejado a su mujer.

Algunas veces él se sentaba sobre

una caja de madera

deprimido y con la cabeza agachada.

Una ves Hedvig Niskanen le preguntó:

“¿Qué estás pensando?”

Entonces Antti le pediía que cantara

canciones finlandesas de amor.

Al escucharlas a Antti

le empezaba a caer

grandes lágrimas y dijo:

“Vuelvo a Finlandia.”

(Regresó a Misiones en 1920 con su esposa Maija Liisa, y su yerna Olga y su nieto Sulo. Pekka y Herman Lemmetyinen se establicieron en Colonia Finlandesa en 1914.)

5/9: Eino Parkkulainen: El Chermau Blanco

No tenía ninguna razón para irme,

pero quería ver el mundo;

tenía 22 años y era soltero

de la parroquia de Kitee,

del pueblo de Juurikkajärvi,

de la localidad de Kokkoniemi

y quería ver al mundo…

El jefe indio me dio

un nombre de honor: Chermau Blanco (Hermano Blanco).

Es el honor más grande,

que un indio guaraní puede darle a un forastero.

Conseguí todo tipo de invitaciones al campamento indio.

El jefe indio mandó

cinco hombres armados

para ser mis guaraespaldas durante el viaje.

Unos paraguayos

trabajando en la ruta preguntaron

si ellos podrían ir también a la fiesta

uno de los guaraespaldas le respondió:

“Sí, pueden venir,

pero no sé si regresarán.

Chermau Blanco si regresará.”

Fue la mejor parte de mi vida.

6/9: Helena Haksluoto: Encuentro con la muerte

Cuando vivía en Colonia Finlandesa

siempre estaba con finlandeses

estos argentinos son tan diferentes a nosotros.

Mi prima Anita me dijo una vez de visita:

“Nosotros los Vatanen somos bien finlandeses.”

Me siento netamente finlandesa

aunque mi mamá me dio a luz en esta tierra.

***

Era un mediodía de abril

de repente cayó un rayo en la casa

escuché una explosión fuerte

en la otra habitación

de repente la casa etaba en llamas.

Vi a mi marido en el piso, desnudo

tenía toda la ropa quemada

sus dedos estaban resbalosos como el jabón.

El cuerpo de Eino se había quemado

y ablandado cuando lo arrastraba

salían pedazos enteros de su carne.

No hace mucho tiempo,

Eino me visitó en un sueño

estaba sentado tranquilo,

con sus manos cruzadas; su anillo

brillaba intensamente.

Eino me había visitado para decirme:

“Todo lo que ha pasado es culpa de tu tía Ruusa

pero no tiene ninguna importancia.”

7/9: Eelis Heikkilä: El último recolector

Yo hago todo el trabajo aquí

limpio y carpo el bananal.

Hace dos meses me picó una víbora

suerte que tenía puesto

un pulóver grueso y un saco:

era un yarará (Bothrops alternatus).

Mis pies no aguantan más

cada cargamento que llevo pesa cuarenta kilos

puede ser que haga hasta 100 cargamentos por día

puede ser que en un día

haya cargado más de mil kilos de bananas.

Mis pies ya no aguantan más

mis pies están doloridos

después de un día de trabajao

es difícil levantarse en la mañana.

No hay en esta zona tantos finlandeses

Me estoy olvidando del finlandés

no tengo con quien hablar.

Colonia Finlandesa es un lugar triste

como nadie vive cerca de mí

me quedaría solo tirado

y nadie escucharía a mi socorro

si me picara una víbora.

(Eelis falleció a los 66 años unos meses antes de que visitara a Colonia Finlandesa en mayo de 1998.)

8/9: Helga y Artturi Heino se enamoran y se quedan

Siempre en el campo

conseguí un poco de fuerza

pensando que este sería

el último año

que hiciera este trabajo.

Lo único que nos faltaba

era un comprador para la chacra

todo estaba listo

pero después me embarazé.

Cuando nació Jussi

había estallado en Europa

la Segunda Guerra Mundial

pero nos quedo una pequeña esperanza:

Nos mudaríamos cuando

terminara la guerra.

Pero cuando terminó la guerra

había nacido

una pequeña hija,

Elena, en 1941.

Teníamos cuatro hijos

y poco dinero.

Artturi siempre añoraba

a Finlandia y toda su vida

vivió con la esperanza

de volver a su país natal.

9/9: Últimos pensamientos

El poeta fancés, Edmond Haraucourt (1856-1941), creía que la imagen de la muerte aparece siempre cuando dos personas se separan. Dijo: “El partir es morir un poco, es morir a lo que uno ama.”

El ritual de la despedida era una experiencia más traumática a comienzos del siglo pasado que hoy.  En aquellos tiempos, las personas que no se volverían a ver nunca más, por el destino o las circunstancias de la geografía, tuvieron que disfrazar las despedidas con grandes dosis de esperanza. Tuvieron que convencerse de que pronto se volverían  a ver, aunque nunca lo hicieran.

¿Cuántos inmigrantes de Finlandia y de otros países hubieran dejado a sus seres queridos si hubieran sabido que sería la última vez que los vieran? Seguramente la historia de la humanidad se hubiera escrito de manera distinta si hubiéramos tenido el don de saber si nuestros adioses eran los últimos.

Karjalainen: Rasistinen rikos on suuri häpeä

Posted on October 11, 2011 by Migrant Tales

Comment: Joensuu-based daily Karjalainen is a bold example of how the Finnish media should treat racism and hate crimes. It writes:  “Believe me, the one who commits a hate crime is no hero but brings great shame on you, your relatives and to the whole town.” 

Migrant Tales reported Sunday about a serious hate crime incident in the town of Lieksa in the northern Pohjois-Karjala region. A group of Finns had attacked three Somalians at dawn. One Somalian received a knife wound and was treated at the local health center. 

The daily, which states that a small group of skinheads were responsible for giving Joensuu a racist label in the 1990s, writes that wiping off such a stigma is no easy job. The community suffers because students, skilled immigrants and foreign investment rarely want to locate in a city that has such a questionable label. 

Karjalainen writes that people in Lieksa are now of the opinion that immigrants that walk at dawn in town are only looking for trouble and therefore it was ok to attack them.  No matter what explanation is given for the attack – according to the daily – one matter is for certain: it was a racist act.

 Sunnuntaiaamuinen joukkopuukkotappelu Lieksan keskustassa ei liene kenellekään enää yllätys. Rasististen vahingontekojen, uhkailujen ja uhoilujen sekä kuntapäättäjienkin rasistisiin rikoksiin syyllistyneille osoittaman ymmärryksen jälkeen voi vain sanoa, että tätähän tässä on jo odotettukin.

Finnish “culture and personality”

Posted on September 18, 2008 by Migrant Tales

THIS STORY WAS UPDATED

I just looked over an ”adaption guide to Finland” for Russians that move to the Kymenlaakso region in the southeast of the country.

While these types of publications may have good intentions, they tend to generalize complex matters such as Finnish culture and personality. One of the matters that is surprising in the guide is how few – if any – social psychologists, sociologists and anthropologists were used. The guide states that Finland is a “feminist” country, although women still make about 20% less than men.

Under the part that attempts to show some traits on Finnish personality, I chose a few descriptions that caught my eye:

1. Statement: What is essential for the Finns? The most important matter that characterizes him/her is his/her patriotism. The Finns love their country.

(Mikä on olennaista suomalaisessa ihmisessä? Kaikkein olennaisinta on hänessä patriotismi. Suomalainen rakastaa omaa maataan.)

Comment: Is this something unique? Does it suggest that I should fear Finns and take special care not to offend Finland? Does it suggest that Finns may have difficulties accepting others because patriotism, or nationalism, gets in the way? Why is this attribute the most important for the authors?

How I would change the sentence: Finns, like other people in different nations, love their country. So? Are the authors suggesting that people in some countries are not patriotic?

2. Statement: Finnish culture can be described as individualistic.

(Suomalaista kulttuuria voidaan luonnehtia yksilökulttuuriksi.)

Comment: Is this a unique trait in a modern industrialized nation? How do we measure individualism?

3. Statement (this is one of my favorites): The Finns are bashful and quiet. He is not very social if he is around strangers.

(Suomalainen on ujo ja hiljainen. Hän ei ole seurallinen eikä hän ole kovin aloitteellinen juuri koskaan kanssakäymisissään, jos hän on tuntemattomien ihmisten seurassa.)

Comment: How do Finnish men and women meet at bars? How do they make friends?  What study proves that Finns do not take the initiative when they are around strangers? These types of affirmations, which are not true, only help to reinforce stereotypes about Finns. There are quiet, loud and medium-loud Finns. Some will take the initiative while others will shy away from it. It depends on the person. It is ridiculous to claim that it is “Finnish personality.”

4. Statement: Finns are quite stubborn and in that character he/she is incredibly steadfast.

(Suomalainen on harvinaisen itsepäinen ja siinä piirteessä on hän uskomattoman luja.)

Comment: Like with the above-mentioned statement, are there any studies that prove this? What percentage of Finns are stubborn and which are not? I have never seen a study that measures stubbornness. Isn’t pigheadedness a personality trait as opposed to a national trait – if there ever was one.

5. Statement (this is a “gem”): Finns tend to react slowly…

(Suomalainen on hitaanpuoleinen.…)

Comment: This is the stereotype of the stereotypes mentioned by the guide. Again, I ask, what studies do the authors use to back such a statement? What percentage of the Finns are “slow?” What do they mean by “slow” and compared with whom?

CONCLUSION: These types of statements about Finnish culture are not useful because they only confuse perceptions of Finnish culture since they are not based on any empirical study. If anything, they are subjective perceptions that reveal more the stereotypes and the prejudices of the authors — at the best they show how the authors want foreigners to “see” us.

Are you a target of racism in Finland?

Posted on June 7, 2007February 3, 2024 by Migrant Tales

This blog entry broke on June 25, 2019, the 12,000-visits barrier. Since it was first published in June 2007, it has got 1,557 comments. Even though it is a simple test that aims to shed light on a social ill in this country, it asks, like the one by Alcoholic Anonymous, some hard and unpleasant questions.

Thanks to your support, the Are You a Target of Racism in Finland post has turned into a very big thumbs down against racism in this country.

Are you a target of racism can be now read in Spanish.

Racism manifests itself in various ways. Nazi Germany and the Holocaust, Ku Klux Clan are some of its most terrible manifestations. Today, in Europe, some political parties are capitalizing on xenophobia in order to lure votes for their opportunistic and undemocratic political aims. Racism may happen in different ways in different cultures but one matter is for certain: its primary aim is to exclude, destroy lives and become underachievers.

In a country like Finland, racism happens through exclusion. Unemployment among foreigners in Finland is a good example. Immigrant unemployment is three times higher than the national average. The unemployment figure for foreigners in Finland is one of the highest in the EU.

When you are a victim of racism in Finland it’s clear that social exclusion is your temporary home. How long you stay in such a place depends on you. If you stay in such a place and marginalize yourself you’ll do exactly what the racists want you to do: be a nonperson.

The fact that you have to spend time figuring our your new home and learning your way around means that everything may take longer to attain like job opportunities and a career. Racism slows your progress because that’s what its aim is.

In order to challenge such dangers, it’s important that you adapt to your new homeland as soon as possible. Learn the language, the culture and society – educate yourself if you need to get a profession. Do these things because that’s what the racists don’t want you to do. Mingle with people and society.

A reader made an insightful comment about racism in Finland:

Finnish society, as I am sure you know, gives perhaps a rather misleading ‘public’ image at times. You probably know that Finns aren’t so great at being confrontational or saying what they think openly, thus I think sometimes things like racism are actually more prevalent than you would imagine – but fortunately mainly behind closed doors. People know it is wrong and don’t say it in public, but they still think it in private. The problem is, that in recent years the internet has let the ‘cat out of the bag.’ People can write often what they like without being traced. It’s definitely being used especially by the extremists.

Here is a short Migrant Tales “racism meter” for foreigners and minorities that can help you know if you are a target of discrimination in Finland:

1) I am self-employed (for some it is the only way of getting work)
2) I’m unemployed (generally jobless claims among foreigners totals about 26%)
3) Finns often give me strange looks
4) Public officials, like the police, drag their heels with me
5) The police consider me guilty before proving my innocence
6) A Finn treats me too nicely. (I don’t want special treatment, I want to be treated equally)
7) Finns distrust me
8 Finns are usually watching over me at work (I have to be twice as good as a Finn)
9) If I make a mistake, it’s a bigger deal than normal
10) In a debate, I always know less than a Finn

Here is a new one, number 11: I get attacked by comments on my blog for speaking out against racism.

If you answered YES to any two, the chances are that you are a target of racism in Finland. If you answered YES to three or more, you are definitely a target of racism in Finland.

Note: This was based on an Alcoholics Anonymous questionnaire.
