    Get to know Bagis part 1

    Neighbours in Bagarmossen are convinced that Bagarmossen is still the most RED community in Stockholm.
    They claim that the community is still holding unto its social democratic roots and the essence of living together in a somehow neighbour consider neighbour and a brotherhood where everybody wants to be seen and respect not for what they do or own, but for what they are, human beings. This is a community that stands tall to say – if I have 3 cows, I give one to needy neighbour.
    If you ask Isa Schöier of the Bagis.nu, on what she does on her free time, she would most likely tell you she inquires to know better and write for us and for the coming generation, the story of this little village called Bagarmossen.

    A village that has become home not only for the native swedes, but also for many non-natives. According to my perception, Isa and her friends works ideally to promote the spirit of a natural village, a village where neighbours get to know each other and share a sense of belonging. She would say, that we may look different and may have originated from different backgrounds, but we re all burrowing or roots deep beneath the foundation of this village. I hear the neighbours proclaim that we live here and this is our home!

    During a walk through Bagarmossen organized by bagis.nu, Marica Lagerkrans guided Bagis neighbours through cultural tour telling the history of Bagarmossen beginning from before the Folkhemmet through the dynamics of the social welfare and the positive effects it had on the community at large.

    Bagarmossen is a multi-cultural community hosting people from almost all over the world. The residence when asked by Bagis.nu says that they find it very conducive and friendly in Bagarmossen despite many negative and baseless rumours reproduced by non residence especially from inner city.
    The cultural organization Bagis.nu asked children to make paper houses of all models found in Bagarmossen which were later displayed in the cultural school. Every house has its own unique story that gives Bagarmossen its own identity.

    I took some pictures of the houses made made by our children and I think they are just amazing. Find them below.

    In her narrative, Marica said that the residence of the first privately own town houses, built their own houses.
    Marica also narrated how the workers worked not just to accumulate as much wealth as possible, like it is today, but to satisfy their needs.

      Papa ledighet…. det är inte alls sant! Papa jobbar mera än han gör när han jobba med betald arbete. Vi tycker att termen papaledig ska ändras till papajob arbete eller nåt i den vinkel
      They say that paternity ( only exist in Sweden?-and I love it more than anything else) leave is a time for a father to be free but that is not true! The leave requires the father to be fully committed to child care just as if they are working in the office or in a child care institution.
