Hello, how are you? Welcome to this podcast, from the Canary Islands to the world.
In this episode, I delve into the lives that defy distance, language, and fear. Migrants who left behind the familiar to embrace the unknown. You'll hear stories of everyday courage, of human beings reinventing their world, of young people transforming rejection into strength. Because migrating isn't just about moving: it's about rebuilding.
One of the most common mantras is that Canarians who migrated to Venezuela or Cuba did so with "papers." But a quick look at the archives is enough to debunk that: in Spain, there was an Emigration Law that prevented men of military age from leaving the country. A permit was required. With an illiterate or semi-literate population living in extreme poverty, where were you going to complete the paperwork? And the arrival wasn't exactly paradise either...
Thank you for joining me on this journey of humanity and resilience. If this story touched you, share it. And if you have a story to tell, write to me. Until the next episode!
