* On March 24, 1854, the President of the Republic of Venezuela, José Gregorio Monagas, signed the Law of definitive abolition of slavery in Venezuela.

• President Monagas signed the decree and passed into the history of our country, as the man who took the final step to abolish slavery.
• Today we celebrate 164 years of that decree, and unfortunately the current situation of the country, reminds us "The slaves of Franco" (Between 1936 and 1939 Spain suffered a civil war that tore the country).
• It was during the dictatorship of General Francisco Franco that there were more than 400,000 political prisoners, one of them, the historian and Spanish university professor. Nicolás Sánchez Albornoz (Madrid, 1926), eloped in 1948 with Manuel Lamana of the Valley of the Fallen (the only two people who could escape from there), assures that they were very hard moments, but in terms of food, reduced by officers and corrupt workers.
