Mothers of Plaza de Mayo head Hebe de Bonafini assured today that arguments and fights with her daughter Alejandra “are a fabrication” and revealed that the human rights group radio stopped functioning due to lack of payments. Also, she said that the workers that claim unpaid wages to the Foundation “are assholes.”
“Every Wednesday, they (newspapers) invent fights and arguments, they degrade us and create rubbish. but they won’t be able to take us down. Those who think they will take the Mothers down won’t be able to do so,” De Bonafini said while addressing supporters and fellow Mothers in the traditional Thursday walk around Plaza de Mayo.
«Every Wednesday, the Duhaldes and Schoklenders spur bullshit, provoke and make them, those who side by murderers and torturers, use anything against Mothers. And Clarín, La Nación, Ambito, rejoice and say lies and denounce us, so that on Thursday four assholes come to claim us money we don’t have,” De Bonafini said in her usual vehement style.
“I´ll tell you something, why we don’t have money. Because we spent our last peso in paying those workers we had to fire and we ran out of money. We don’t have an antenna, and today, we couldn’t pay the rent to the woman who owns the field where our antenna was set, and thus the radio isn’t broadcasting. We used our last peso to pay the workers we fired. Where do they want us to take the money from?” she questioned.
“We won’t steal like the Schoklenders to pay them back. So, friends, no matter how much bullshit comes our way on Wednesdays, on Thursdays we will always be here, nobody will take us away from here,” she concluded.
