Feria Alternativa del Libro en la Alameda Central

martes 14 de septiembre de 2010 por Luis (Coordinación de Sistemas)

Tras siete meses de labores la Brigada Cultural Para Leer en Libertad AC, colaborando con diversas instituciones del gobierno de la ciudad de México, el PRD del DF, organizaciones sociales y sindicatos, hemos organizado más de 200 acciones de promoción de la lectura, que incluyen un gran Remate de Libros, conferencias en comedores populares, un curso llamado “Historia de México para ciudadanos en rebeldía”, 25 ferias (tianguis) a lo largo y ancho de la ciudad de México, y hemos editado 11 libros que se regalaron en estas acciones.

También hemos observado la manera como los programas de Promoción a la Lectura que muchos de nosotros promovimos dentro de la Secretaría de Cultura del Distrito Federal han desaparecido o han sido reducidos a un mínimo conducidos burocráticamente.

También creemos que la próxima feria del libro en el Zócalo no garantizará las necesidades de una ciudad como la nuestra que ha incrementado en los últimos años sus intereses culturales y su voluntad de leer.

Por lo tanto la Brigada Cultural Para Leer en Libertad ha decidido organizar la FERIA ALTERNATIVA DEL LIBRO de la Ciudad de México en la ALAMEDA CENTRAL, del 6 al 10 de octubre.

Hasta ahora se ha confirmado la participación de más de 200 sellos editoriales, librerías y distribuidoras.

Intentamos que no sólo se privilegie la buena literatura, el ensayo social, el libro informativo contra la literatura chatarra, sino que además haya grandes ofertas. Pensamos que el precio del libro en estos momentos en México es un gran obstáculo para la amplia circulación y hemos invitado a los participantes a que ofrezcan grandes saldos y ofertas.

A lo largo del evento se regalarán libros editados por la Brigada, uno de los cuales será la Antología “De los cuates pa’la raza”, en la que intervienen aportando de manera gratuita sus derechos de autor, 37 escritores.

No sólo nos preocupa la oferta de libros, sino las actividades paralelas (presentaciones, debates, mesas redondas, lecturas) y para eso hemos convocado a un nutrido grupo de autores. Entre los ya confirmados se encuentran: José Agustín, Gerardo de la Torre, Óscar de la Borbolla, Beatriz Escalante, Guadalupe Loaeza, Irving Roffe, Eduardo Monteverde, José Luis Zárate, Bef, Eduardo Antonio Parra, Claudia Guillén, Eugenio Aguirre, Rius, El Fisgón, Mónica Lavín, Arturo Trejo, Jorge Belarmino Fernández, Jenaro Villamil, Francisco Pérez Arce, Pedro Salmerón, Francisco Pineda, Chuy Vargas, Fritz Glockner, Laura Esquivel, Agustín Sánchez, Armando Vega Gil, Jorge Meléndez, Humberto Musacchio, Mariluz Suárez, Víctor Roura, David Martín del Campo, Felipe Galván, Héctor de Mauleón, Ana María Jaramillo, Jorge Moch, Víctor Luis González, Jesús Ramírez, Sabina Berman, Laura Restrepo y Paco Ignacio Taibo II.

Habrá lecturas de poesía de Thelma Nava, Enrique González Rojo, Marco Antonio Campos, David Huerta, Eduardo Langagne, Benito Taibo, Beatriz Novaro, Hugo Gutiérrez Vega, Julieta Gamboa.

Andrés Manuel López Obrador presentará su reciente libro. También se presentará la novela póstuma de Carlos Montemayor “Las mujeres del alba”. Tendremos una mesa redonda sobre “Los gastos del bicentenario” en la que participarán Luis Hernández y Carmen García Bermejo, otra sobre el primer año de lucha del SME (en la que intervendrán su secretario general y el secretario del interior del sindicato), y una dedicada al “País del narco”, en la que participarán Víctor Ronquillo y Alejandro Páez.

Habrá además intervenciones musicales de Gabino Palomares, La Resistencia, Los Nakos, Misael, Calaca’s Jazz Band, Arraigo Domiciliario y otros grupos.

Tendremos tres tertulias. La primera se celebrará a lo largo de tres días y se titula “El estado de la nación” en la que intervendrán Armando Bartra, Carlos Payán, Javier González Garza, Fabricio Mejía Madrid, Héctor Díaz Polanco, Manuel Oropeza, Sanjuana Martínez, Agustín Torres, Ricardo Ruiz, Diego Valadés, Jorge Zepeda Paterson y Martí Batres.

Una segunda (a realizarse por dos días) se titula “De los padres de la patria”, y revisará las figuras de los insurgentes, con la participación de Patricia Galeana, Raquel Huerta Nava, El Fisgón, Leo Eduardo Mendoza y Francisco González.

Y una tercera (también de dos días de duración), sobre la “Política Cultural en el DF” en la que intervendrán José Alfonso Suárez del Real, Paloma Saiz, Felipe Garrido, Benjamín González, Argel Gómez.

Habrá talleres de cómic, infantiles, de creación literaria y de periodismo ciudadano. Tendremos el estreno mundial del documental “Ernesto Guevara, también conocido como el Che” de Carlos Mendoza.
