The eighth series
The “proletariat” school

(1)
A general idea and a comparative gesture
The “Proletariat” school was a school for the sons of the nomads. It was established during the era of President Salmeen, who was concerned with educating the sons of the nomads, and their diaspora was collected from the deserts and distant lands; To sponsor them, organize them in the public education sector, and take care of them during their studies in their various stages.
The “Proletariat” school is located in an area in the middle of the road linking the governorates of Lahj and Aden, and administratively and educationally affiliated to the Lahj governorate, and there was an internal section attached to it in which the state provided all students with free housing and food.
I studied high school at the “proletariat” school.. The term “proletariat” was difficult for the tongue that he was not familiar with or used to, and we later memorized this term as we memorize our names, and more of it became a subject of pride, belonging and bragging, especially in the meaning it carries, and the position Specifically in the working class, which was viewed by socialist political awareness and Marxist culture, as the first class concerned with change in capitalist societies, its transition to socialism and communism, and considering the working class as the most revolutionary class of society, and entrusted to it before others the task of overthrowing the capitalist system in the world..

When I joined this school in 1979, I might have felt some alienation, or perhaps a situation that was different from what I was used to, and gradually this feeling faded.. Most of the students in this school, or almost all of them, were from the countryside of Lahij Governorate, Radfan, Al Dhale’, Tur Al Baha and Yafa’, and I don’t remember anyone From the north, others except for Muhammad Abdul-Malik from “Murabaha Al-Qubeta”, and Ali Badi from “Anas Dhamar”, while Al-Najma Al-Hamra School, which was a few kilometers away from our school, hosts large numbers of students from the central regions, and the northern regions in general..
After a not long time, the school of the “proletariat” was transformed into a camp called the Fifth Brigade, and after forty years of those days, during this ugly and unjust war on our people, many government schools were destroyed, and a significant number of them were converted into military barracks, prisons and detention centers, and some It is being demolished and expanded for commercial projects.
As for quality and quality, education has become weak, fragile, backward and distorted, and on top of that, the students’ families pay money with fees that exceed the capabilities of many of their guardians, and many students drop out of their schools, and some of them are mobilized from schools, while they are under the age of majority, as war guards, and abandon The de facto authorities, with their different names, refer to the free education service job, in favor of private education, which is also not free of misery and fragility.
More than this and that, the teacher became in this damned war and for the seventh year in many schools working without pay, and in some of them his wages were so low that he was almost without pay, and some of them with an incentive that is not enough for a meal for one teacher without his family, and yet he was stingy until he was given this The despicable impulse is the contempt of these horrible powers that govern it.
The authorities these days want a teacher who does not have a family, a family or a stomach.. a teacher who does not eat or drink and does not need.. they want a miserable, servile and submissive teacher who works for free.. the authorities want teachers who eat and drink air, and even the air they would like to cut it for them if it was bought. And if this starving and crushed teacher protested, they would seize his service and the misery of his years just because he demanded one of his rights.
We are forcibly and forcibly led to a situation worse and humiliating for human beings than the first slavery era… an era more catastrophic than what happened and what happened… We live in a situation that resembles an era witnessing a terrible and overwhelming civilized apostasy..
