La Conga es la expresión artística más emblemática y extendida de Santiago de Cuba durante los Carnavales. En ella convergen ritmos afrocubanos con influencias europeas y asiáticas, creando una vibrante fusión cultural. Los instrumentos esenciales de la Conga incluyen tambores, campanas y la distintiva corneta china, que aporta un sonido único. Mientras los músicos recorren las calles tocando con energía, cientos de personas se unen al cortejo, bailando y entonando estribillos populares que resuenan en la celebración. En Santiago de Cuba destacan varias comparsas de Conga, entre ellas Paso Franco, San Agustín, San Pedrito y, especialmente, Los Hoyos, la más célebre y antigua, fundada en julio de 1902.

It blends Afro-Cuban rhythms with European and Asian influences, creating a vibrant cultural fusion. The essential instruments of the Conga include drums, bells, and the distinctive Chinese cornet, which adds a unique sound. As musicians march through the streets playing with energy, hundreds of people join the procession, dancing and singing popular refrains that echo through the celebration. In Santiago de Cuba, several Conga comparsas stand out, including Paso Franco, San Agustín, San Pedrito, and, most notably, Los Hoyos, the most famous and oldest, founded in July 1902.

Some delegates of the AFD-Party were, protected by the police, posing in front of the demonstrators. Some verbal provations were done from both sides.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Background:
After the German opposition party AFD (Alternative for Germany) had enforced the holding of its legally required party conference in the Grugahalle in Essen through the courts, representatives of the government parties and many NGOs called for protests. Violence broke out and the police had to protect the AFD federal party conference and the delegates who had arrived from attacks by demonstrators. 28 police officers were injured, 2 of them seriously.
The representatives of the government parties call themselves democrats. Since they do not recognize the AFD as a democratic party, they call on their supporters to fight the AFD.

Is a giant sculpture of a butt plug which shows a vague resemblance to a Christmas tree art, or meaningless provocation?
Street art is visual art created in public locations, usually unsanctioned artwork executed outside of the context of traditional art venues. The term gained popularity during the graffiti art boom of the early 1980s and continues to be applied to subsequent incarnations. Stencil graffiti, wheatpasted poster art or sticker art, and street installation or sculpture are common forms of modern street art. Video projection, yarn bombing and Lock On sculpture became popularized at the turn of the 21st century.
The terms "urban art", "guerrilla art", "post-graffiti" and "neo-graffiti" are also sometimes used when referring to artwork created in these contexts.[1] Traditional spray-painted graffiti artwork itself is often included in this category, excluding territorial graffiti or pure vandalism.
Street art is often motivated by a preference on the part of the artist to communicate directly with the public at large, free from perceived confines of the formal art world.[2] Street artists sometimes present socially relevant content infused with esthetic value, to attract attention to a cause or as a form of "art provocation".[3]
Street artists often travel between countries to spread their designs. Some artists have gained cult-followings, media and art world attention, and have gone on to work commercially in the styles which made their work known on the streets.

Capa watched from the curb. Doisneau stayed for the view.
Ying crossed the bridge like a provocation in heels.
Steel beneath her steps. Lace beneath her coat.
There was no turning back—only desire.

The events of April 24, 1921, in Bolzano, are called the Bloody Sunday of Bolzano. It was a first highlight of Fascist violence in South Tyrol, which after the First World War had fallen to Italy and was mostly German-speaking.
On April 24, 1921, a popular vote took place in the Austrian Tyrol on the Anschluss (Annexation) to the German Reich. The Fascists, at that time still a group of thugs active throughout Italy, regarded the opening of the Bozner Spring Fair, coincidentally on the same day, as a provocation which was connected with the plebiscite and decided to disturb the traditional costume parade through Bolzano. Despite warnings, the Italian authorities concerned did not take any security measures.
On the morning of the day, about 290 Fascists from the rest of Italy arrived at the station in Bozen and united with about 120 followers of the Fascio movement from Bolzano. During the costume procession, the Fascists attacked participants and spectators with clubs, guns and hand grenades. About fifty South Tyroleans were partly seriously injured. The teacher Franz Innerhofer from Marling died in an attempt to protect a boy by shooting at the entrance of Bozen's residence Stillendorf.

The now intervening military limited itself to escorting the aggressors to the railway station, where they were able to depart unmolested. Italian Prime Minister Giovanni Giolitti's call to immediately arrest the perpetrators and bring them to justice led to the arrest of two Bolzano fascists. After Benito Mussolini had threatened to force the liberation of his comrades with the help of 2,000 fascists on 1 May in Bolzano, the two were released again.
Today, a commemorative placard in the residence Stillendorf recalls the events. On April 25, 2011, the public holiday to the liberation of Italy from fascism and national socialism, a place was named after Franz Innerhofer in the old town of Bolzano (south of the Free University of Bozen).
Als Bozner Blutsonntag werden die Ereignisse vom 24. April 1921 in Bozen bezeichnet. Es handelte sich dabei um einen ersten Höhepunkt faschistischer Gewalt im nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg an Italien gefallenen, mehrheitlich deutschsprachigen Südtirol.
Am 24. April 1921 fand im österreichischen Tirol eine Volksabstimmung über den Anschluss an das Deutsche Reich statt. Die Faschisten, damals noch eine italienweit tätige Schlägertruppe, betrachteten die zufällig am selben Tag stattfindende Eröffnung der Bozner Frühjahrsmesse als eine mit dem Plebiszit zusammenhängende Provokation und beschlossen, den traditionellen Trachtenumzug durch Bozen zu stören. Trotz Warnungen ergriffen die zuständigen italienischen Behörden keine Sicherheitsmaßnahmen.
Am Morgen des Tages trafen etwa 290 Faschisten aus dem übrigen Italien am Bozner Bahnhof ein und vereinigten sich mit etwa 120 Anhängern der Fascio-Bewegung aus Bozen. Während des Trachtenumzugs griffen die Faschisten Teilnehmer und Zuschauer mit Knüppeln, Pistolen und Handgranaten an. Etwa fünfzig Südtiroler wurden teils schwer verletzt. Der Lehrer Franz Innerhofer aus Marling starb beim Versuch, einen Jungen zu beschützen, durch Schüsse im Hauseingang des Bozner Ansitzes Stillendorf.

Das nun einschreitende Militär beschränkte sich darauf, die Aggressoren zum Bahnhof zu eskortieren, wo sie unbehelligt abreisen konnten. Die Aufforderung des italienischen Ministerpräsidenten Giovanni Giolitti, die Täter unverzüglich festzunehmen und der Gerichtsbarkeit zuzuführen, hatte die Verhaftung zweier Bozner Faschisten zur Folge. Nachdem Benito Mussolini damit gedroht hatte, am 1. Mai in Bozen mit 2000 Faschisten die Befreiung seiner Genossen zu erzwingen, wurden die beiden wieder freigelassen.
Heute erinnert eine Gedenktafel im Ansitz Stillendorf an die Ereignisse. Am 25. April 2011, dem Feiertag zur Befreiung Italiens von Faschismus und Nationalsozialismus, wurde ein Platz in der Altstadt von Bozen (südlich der Freien Universität Bozen) nach Franz Innerhofer benannt.
