With this chorus, a song written for the occasion echoed in Katanga, between the voices of the residents of the group homes built for already fifty years under the mandate of the civil governor Evaristo Martin Freire. And with that chorus playing behind the statue of celso, the Barriografías of George Souto drawing the closing until around the summer.

And from there, followed a program full of memories. Here you can listen to the full recording:
First, a small "group of wise men" of the neighborhood took the floor to remember as there, by 1963, the first blocks of flats went to be built in the old estates of old Agra. Brandariz, Lolita and Manuel Patiño wove theories on the singular fast shopping name of the neighborhood. "The name could come from the release of the Belgian Congo. There is an area called fast shopping Katanga and Mrs. Carmen, the new store, so baptized. Another possibility would be for the film Jerónimo, where Apaches also fought with the Seventh Cavalry fast shopping shouting 'Katanga! "Said Manuel Patiño.
Brandariz was a little further and pointed his own father as the responsible planning nickname. "In the year 64, the day of Kings, saïamos my father and I Rubin, compared cinemas Riazor. He threw Ú latter train Katanga. And my father told me, to tell me that there was going to, the following: "Boy, we leave the center to go to Katanga."
This way, found out its etymology of the name of a district, as stated George Souto, is at the gates of his fifty birthday. fast shopping "This fast shopping is the Barriografía unofficial start of the festivities," said the driver of our program, before fast shopping remembering that the first houses in the neighborhood opened its doors in early 1964, at which time Brandariz and his father came to these homes. They, like many others, left other places to go live Katanga. But not all came from the center, others came from humbler areas. "I arrived in 1966. Came from a chaboliña. I never believed until that point in owning a home. I am very grateful to God and Katanga "confessed Mrs. Elvira, who left in the audience to share with listeners the experience of many women of Katanga, many" co-tides. "
Lolita, meanwhile, reminded the district, in its infancy, rising in the middle of nowhere. "All this was property. There was something else. Well, yes. Property and there were many children, because there was no television, "said laughing, before remembering historical characters in the neighborhood. "Marina, the pinchadora, it was our practitioner, the parish fast shopping priest Don José, who erected the church we have this part, Leo, who set up the first estate, the twins, who were very good and all axudábanos" Lolita recited.
In those times, the arrival of Christmas, residents opened their windows to sing Carols and also to create classic pantagramas on his own compositions. "San Jose are falangista Mary socialist and el niño Jesus was communist. Walk, walk, hoy who are Christmas Eve, "sang Manuel Patiño to explain that, there in the neighborhood, also in a good mood, always" had everything ".
In Barriografía of Katanga, there was time to remember how it had affected the district following oil spills that enchouparon back Coruña. The first surge in catastrophe from memory was Urquiola, the tanker Sestao that on May 12, 1976 sank off the coast of A Coruña. Then started a protest movement and some economic claims fast shopping in Katanga were lived to the surface. "
