1 | Puerto Rico: “Why So Much Fear of an Image?” | Pôrtô Rikô: “Sary Iray Ve Dia Atahorana Mafy?” |
2 | The online magazine 80 Grados [es] published this week an article from photojournalist Ricardo Alcaraz in which he denounces the president of the University of Puerto Rico, Miguel Muñoz, for censoring one of the photos [es] from a photo essay Alcaraz was preparing for the 25th anniversary edition of the University's monthly newspaper, Diálogo. | Lahatsoratra avy tamin'ny mpanao gazety mpaka sary Ricardo Alcaraz ny gazety-boky an-tserasera 80 Grados tamin'ity herinandro ity no nilazany fa ny filohan'ny oniversite an'i Puerto Rico, Miguel Muñoz no nanasivana ny iray tamin'ireo sariny [es]nokarakarainy noho ny fitsingeranan'ny faha-25 taona nivoahan'ny gazetin'ny oniversite mivoaka isam-bolana Diálogo. |
3 | Alcaraz is the sole remaining journalist from the paper's original staff. | Alcaraz sisa no hany mpanao gazety tokana tavela tamin'ireo ekipa tao voalohany tamin'izany. |
4 | The photo in question is from the student strike at the University of Puerto Rico in 2010 and shows a police officer shouting to a distressed female student. | Izany sary izany dia nopihana nandritra ny grevin'ny mpianatra ao amin'ny Oniversiten'i Pôrtô Rikô tamin'ny taona 2010 ary mampiseho sarina polisy mitabataba amina mpianatra vehivavy mila vonjy. |
5 | Alcaraz states that the the president of the university had concerns with some photos from the start: | Nanambara i Alcaraz fa sahirana ihany ny filohan'ny oniversite tamin'ny nahita voalohany ny sasany tamin'ireo sary: |
6 | These days the most recent edition of Diálogo has been published, the front page dedicated to the 25 years of the newspaper. | Teo ampivoahana indrindra ny laharana farany amin'ny gazety Diálogo tamin'izany andro izany, laharana natokana noho ny faha-25 taonan'ny gazety ny fonony. |
7 | On this issue two of its pages were supposed to feature a two page photo essay, with a selection of the most representative photos of my work for the last 25 years, but it was not published. | Amin'io lohahevitra io noheverina , roa amin'ireo pejy no tokony hametrahana sary tantara anaty pejy roa, amin'ny alalan'ny fanatsongana sary mahasolontena indrindra tamin'ny asako nandritra izay 25 taona lasa izay, saingy tsy navoaka anefa ireo. |
8 | It was censored by the new director of Diálogo, because the University of Puerto Rico's president, Miguel Muñoz, objected to some of the photos included in the essay. | Nosakanan'ny tale vaovaon'ny gazety Diálogo, satria nolavin'ny filohan'ny Oniversiten'i Porto Riko, Miguel Muñoz, ny sasany tamin'ireo sary tafiditra tanaty tantara. |
9 | This photo by Ricardo Alcaraz of the 2010 student strike was to be published on the 25th anniversary of Diálogo. | Avy amin'i Ricardo Alcaraz ity sary ity tamin'ny taona 2010, tokony navoaka tamin'ny fankalazana ny faha-25taona nivoahan'ny Diálogo ny grevin'ny mpianatra . |
10 | The paper's director did not want the photo used because of objections by the university's president. | Tsy navelan'ny talen'ny gazety navoaka ny sary noho ny fanoherana avy amin'ny filohan'ny oniversite. |
11 | Rather than taking the photo out, Alcaraz decided to retire the photo essay altogether. | Mba tsy hangalana indray ny sary, Alcaraz nanapa-kevitra nanaisotra ny sary fanadihadiana rehetra. |
12 | Photo published with Alcaraz's permission) | Nahazoana alalana tamin'i Alcaraz ny famoahana ny sary) |
13 | However, after some discussions between Alcaraz and the director, everything boiled down to the one photo from the strike (above), and Alcaraz decided to pull out the entire essay: | Na dia izany aza, taorian'ny dinidinika teo amin'i Alcaraz sy ny talen'ny gazety, niompana tamin'ny sary iray misy ny grevin'ny mpianatra (io ambony io) ny dinidinika, ka nanapa-kevitra nanala ny sary rehetra i Alcaraz: |
14 | I was asked to reconsider; that if I took down or changed the photo, the photo essay would be published. | Nangatahana aho mba handinika tsara; fa raha manaisotra na manolo ny sary aho, dia havoaka ny sary tantara rehetra. |
15 | But I refused, and told the director that if I retired the photo just to get all the other photos published I would be disrespecting myself. | Saingy nolaviko, ary nilaza tamin'ny tale aho fa raha esoriko ilay sary iray mba ahafahana mamoaka ireo sary hafa fotsiny, dia tsy manaja ny tenako aho. |
16 | The result: the essay was not published. | Vokatr'izany: tsy navoaka ny [sary] tantara. |
17 | Alcaraz laments that this is how the administration has decided to celebrate 25 years of Diálogo: | Nalahelo i Alcaraz fa toy izany ny fanapaha-kevitry ny mpitantana nentina nankalazana ny faha-25 taona nivoahan'ny Diálogo: |
18 | This is how the university's administration celebrates 25 years of the newspaper: with intolerance and censorhip. | Toy izany ny fomba nentin'ny mpitantana ny oniversite nankalazana ny faha-25 taonan'ny gazety: tsy fahazakana sy sivana. |
19 | Alcaraz's predicament has not gone unnoticed. | Tsy nisy izay tsy nahatsikaritra ny zava-nitranga tamin'i Alcaraz. |
20 | Dozens of people have republished the censored photo on their walls on Facebook and distributed the link to the 80grados story on Twitter. | Olona am-polony no namoaka indray ny sary nosivanina tao amin'ny rindrin'ny Facebook-ny ary nizara ny rohin'ny tantara tamin'ny 80grados tao amin'ny Twitter. |
21 | There has been an outpouring of solidarity and outrage. | Nisy ny firaisankina sy fanehoana fahatezerana faobe. |
22 | It is not clear why the administration opposes the publication, and Alcaraz does wonder: | Tsy mazava ny antony mahatonga ny mpitantana mandà ny famoahana ilay sary, ary nanontany tena i Alcaraz |
23 | Why so much fear of an image? | Nahoana no sary iray no atahorana mafy? |
24 | Does it really have so much strength? | Manana hery lehibe ve? |
25 | Does it influence so much? | Manintona be ve? |
26 | Why this insistence in preventing it from being seen? | Nahoana no mikiry mafy mba tsy hahitana izany sary izany?? |
