"Mi caserío Bizkerre" está inspirado en esta fotografía del dominio público donde aparecen mis parientes Arróspide Oar, publicada en el almanaque 2005 de la BBK. En el ángulo inferior derecho aparece Félix, el mismo personaje del otro vídeo, que marchó a trabajar de pastor a Idaho, EE.UU., regresó al lar, construyó una hermosa mansión de indiano, casó y falleció casi enseguida. Creo que uno de las mujeres es la tía Lorenza.

"Both Spanish and French governments have, at times, tried to suppress Basque linguistic and cultural identity. The French Republics, the epitome of the nation-state, have a long history of attempting the complete cultural absorption of ethnic minority groups. Spain has, at most points in its history, granted some degree of linguistic, cultural, and even political autonomy to its Basques, but under the regime of Francisco Franco, the Spanish government reversed the advances of Basque nationalism, as it had fought in the opposite side of the Spanish Civil War: cultural activity in Basque was limited to folkloric issues and the Roman Catholic Church, while a quite limited degree of tolerance was granted to Basque culture in Álava and Navarra, since both areas mostly supported Francoist troops during the war.

Today, the Basque Country within Spain enjoys an extensive cultural and political autonomy. The Basque education system has three types of schools differentiated by their linguistic teaching models: A, B and D. Model D, with education entirely in Basque, and Spanish as a compulsory subject, is the most widely chosen model by parents. In Navarre there is an additional G model, with education entirely in Spanish.

In Navarre the ruling (as of March 2007) conservative government of Unión del Pueblo Navarro opposes Basque nationalist pretensions of education in Basque through all Navarre. Navarre is divided into three linguistic zones, the north being Basque, the zone around Pamplona bilingual, and the zone south of Pamplona, Spanish. This zonification has been objected by those parents in the Spanish zone who wish that their children learn Basque, because, since there is no public teaching of this language in this zone, those parents are forced to send their children to private schools. Basque language teaching in the public education network is limited to the Basque speaking north and central regions. However, in the central region, Basque teaching in the public education network is fairly limited, and part of the demand is served via private schools or ikastolak.

The situation of Basque is delicate in France, where monolingual public schooling in French exert great pressure on the Basque language. Basque teaching is mainly concentrated on private schools, or ikastolak." (Excerpts from public domain Wikipedia)
