In a space designed to resemble a gym changing room, the exhibition placed the phrase "Let them go back to their country!" alongside the phrase "Let them learn Catalan!", which could be interpreted as equating demanding language learning with racism or exclusion. According to Plataforma per la Llengua, the exhibition presented learning Catalan "with a negative, belligerent, and even hateful tone." The ICIP (International Catalan Institute for Peace), the organizing body, admitted on Thursday afternoon that "the central message of the piece could be misinterpreted and that the text was unfortunate," and has since removed this section from the exhibition. </p>]]></description>
