#DíaNaranja 🟠 Cada 25 del mes, nos unimos para decir NO a la violencia de género. Es momento de alzar la voz, visibilizar el problema y trabajar por un mundo más justo e igualitario.
La violencia de género es una de las violaciones de derechos humanos más extendidas en todo el mundo.
Acabemos con la negación.
Reconocer que es una crisis generalizada, es la base para ponerle fin de una vez por todas. https://t.co/AXcVaq9sqB

Tal día como hoy, hace 88 años, fue fusilado Federico García Lorca hacia las 4 de la madrugada del 18 de agosto de 1936, en el camino que va de Víznar a Alfacar (Granada) Los ejecutores del fusilamiento fue una brigada de sicarios en su mayoría pertenecientes a la Falange, dirigidos por el cabo Mariano Ajenjo Moreno, a su vez obedeciendo órdenes del teniente de la Guardia Civil, y entonces Gobernador Civil en funciones de la provincia de Granada, Nicolás Velasco. Junto al poeta, fueron fusilados los banderilleros anarquistas Francisco Galadí y Juan Arcoyas Cabezas y el maestro de escuela Dióscoro Galindo.
