United States
It is a lie that formidable social volunteering that has mobilized millions of beings from the Decade of the seventies is controlled by the World Bank, the IMF, and European and American imperialism. When hundreds of thousands of young people in Europe and United States, disenchanted many ideologies, decided to take on the cause of the poor, the oppressed, the exploited and humiliated by an unjust socio-economic system, they were regarded with suspicion by religious institutions. It believed that that field belonged to them. They were also suspects for unionists in salon, and not say for many executives of big multinationals. The right looked at them with disdain. Perhaps have we not us, they said, the defense of the common good, of the freedom offered by the market and democracy? When understood that we asumiamos solidarity as a response to any inequality unjust, when we do not contentabamos with feeding the hungry, but we wondered why the poor went hungry, when us echabamos million onto the streets of the cities, when they saw that we constitute an enormous socio-political and cultural strength, they tried to undermine us the transparency of our commitment and the generosity of the delivery. The left said that we were the own, while they were about to invent NGOs to obtain benefits and privileges. The right wing did the same transforming their ideological foundations in non-political societies.
While some religious confessions entitled their associations as non-confessional, we understood that we were in danger. That is why we never wanted to support any protest without an alternative proposal, we never wanted to abandon the cause of the poor fighting against poverty and denouncing all oppression and lie, come from where he came. How hard is to check that the first attacks come from those who before us jalearon as new citizens of our time. But they silenced us not because millions of innocent in the world beings allegedly us.
