Resumen
SARA MARRUGO, Jorge Armando. From November 11th to May 1st: History, identity and memory in the construction of a popular social space. Cartagena (Colombia), 1917-1930. hist.crit. [online]. 2013, n.49, pp.185-203. ISSN 0121-1617.
This article seeks to understand May 1st in the city of Cartagena as a social space from which the working classes, organized in the Sociedad de Artesanos de Cartagena (Society of Artisans of Cartagena) and the Directorio Obrero Departamental de Bolivar (Workers' Directorate of the Department of Bolivar), gave new meaning to the date and built a collective identity and a historical memory. During the first commemorations of May 1st, this date became the stage and the opportunity to amend the exclusion suffered by workers during the celebrations of the first centennial of the emancipation of Cartagena. Artisans and worker organizations turned the Day of Independence and May 1st into a sketch of historical memory and a tool to visualize a new political project for the Cartagena of the early twentieth century.
