Historical story

Colombian protests in recent history and modern times

History of Colombia

Colombia, a country formally owned by Spain under the conquistador New World area, is a thriving beautiful rich country. The inhabitants are a mixture of ethnic background Afro-Latino, white skin Hispanic and indigenous peoples. The capital is Bogota. The country is rich in mountains and valley areas. The native Mestizo uses these valleys and low mountain areas to grow coffee, corn, bananas and many more exotic goods. Colombia is most notoriously known for growing the Coca plant. The coca plant is the main component of the drug cocaine. The native of Colombia is still proud of his native Coca plant regardless of the US mandate or Cartel's ruthless capitalist practices.

As the pandemic moves to its deathbed, Colombia still feels the effects of the pandemic. The number of cases has reached 3.41 million, and the country has a death toll of 88,774 XNUMX. The hardest hit by the pandemic, however, are the poor.

Covid-19 relief bill

Why does this mean something in the context of Latin America? Latin American history is a hidden history people, as the Covid-19 pandemic seems to be on the verge of death. We should go back a few months when all this started. Wow, it's only been a year. It feels like Covid has been here much longer. If you do not know. The Covid-19 pandemic was launched in Wuhan China. Covid-19 virus is a variant of Sars The Covid-19 Sars virus has not been confirmed. It is unconfirmed whether the virus was created in a laboratory or developed naturally.

The bottom line is that the Covid-19 virus is no excuse for committing hate crimes against your local Asian community. Yes, there are Asian societies in Latin America. Spain itself has an Asian society. I'm giving you the right facts here, and your local Asian community has no power to influence the Chinese government. Your Asian community is part of your community, not the Chinese government.

On the horizon of the Covid-19 pandemic, the US government followed suit by installing a radically innovative payment support plan. It was designed by President Barack Husain Obama, not by Donald Trump:FYI. These are the facts. During the Obama presidency, a plan to have a pandemic plan was considered. It would be the Trump presidency that would write the plan outside. Printing Obama's emergency pandemic plan would cost hundreds of thousands of lives in 2020.

The Covid-19 bill was a $ 1.9 trillion emergency bill designed to help families unable to work during the pandemic. The bill would allow the government to disregard controls of around 2,800 for every American living in the United States who qualifies. The Covid-19 bill also gave $ 300 extra to people living without unemployment, and it would allow funding to vaccinate all Americans. '

Many First World countries followed suit, but many countries, especially in South America, failed to achieve this type of rapid, largely effective economic policy. The country we need to focus on is Colombia.

Colombia's United Protest Movement

The people of Colombia have declared the current president Ivan Duque weak. They have also declared Ivan Duque the worst president in Colombia's history. 42.5 percent of the country Colombia is below the poverty line. They are the cornerstone of the seemingly less endless protest. The protesters have also been given allied ships with union workers, and the strongest voice in the youth movement in Colombia. The protest has been going on for almost a year and has no sign of stopping.

A catalyst for the protest

The protest was started as a proposal against taxes. President Duque's administration increased the tax on basic foods. A reporter asks a member of Duque's administration how much a dozen eggs cost. The administrations' response was four times lower than the actual price after the Colombian tax increase. At the time of the pandemic, most Colombians could not even eat three times a day. This Colombian journalistic clip would go moderately viral within the twitter sphere hashtag zone #EatdaRich.

We all know that Bill Gates' template is nervously trying to guess the price of common items in your local Bodega.

Meme blew up in the twitter sphere of #eatdarich. Eat the rich is an ironic, political concept in a new age. The movement believes that the wealth gap in the world has grown too large. That the social security systems in place do not do their necessary job due to constant legal manipulation from the wealthy. This group also believes that lobbyists are negotiating agreements to persuade political powers to further commit to constant legal manipulation

The protest continued peacefully through the pandemic. Many individuals held up signs, sang songs and danced. The only act of disturbing the peace that the protesters had committed was to block the roads in very prosperous neighborhoods. This would be when the police force began to break skulls; literally and metaphorically.

How is the protest going today?

On April 28, 2021, four people died in Cali, the capital of the western province of Valle del Cauca. The government sent troops to the capital and the western province of Valle del Cauca. Unfortunately, the protest is much worse.
The people in the protest have reported extreme violence and even sexual abuse. Human Rights Watchers set the total number of deaths at 63. The protesters are largely peaceful in the morning. Unfortunately, the police come in with shooter arms that crush heads and crack skulls. Protesters have also reported militant attacks. A video went viral within the Latin American Wifi sphere. The video shows militia members firing on protesters. Protesters have reported that Colombian police have done nothing to stop these militant attacks.

What are the requirements for the protesters?

There is no doubt that the Colombian protesters have taken note of American policy. With well-known podcasters, NPR distributes huge amounts of Spanish and Latin American content via its information-friendly podcast Radio Ambulate. The Colombian people were inspired to take action. They also had help with the Spanish network Telemundo, as well as many others. You will be glad to know, dear readers, that the young people of Colombia want the same civil liberties as everyone who reads.

What do young people really want?

1.Universal income through reciprocity

2. Reform of the police

Women's Rights / Universal Kindergarten.

4. Civil rights for the POC as well as the LGBTQplus community.

Universal income through reciprocity

Like the modern socialist movement drawn up by the AOC and Bernie Sanders, the people of Colombia want a better position for the poor and middle-class societies through the political action of wealth disturbance. However, it is a little different.

Socialism

Socialism is the act in which the government takes, manages and disturbs the wealth of a country. This sounds good, but many countries that try to emulate this form of wealth-based policy are often extremely corrupt.

Reciprocity

Mutualism is a concept that was invented during the Spanish Civil War (1936). The Spanish Civil War was an anarchist uprising. Many groups:the factory's union workers, labor rights lawyers, the Communist Party and the anarchist movement would fight in a heated social struggle. Because of their consent struggle, the people caught in the middle of the fighting could not obtain external resources, so it resulted in a system that required them to share resources. This act of evenly sharing resources with individuals who had more to give more was enough to last for two months. Regardless of how long the country was mutually still mutually within the Poli-Sci Economic Theoretical Sphere.

Mutualism is a system where the people control the disruption of resources and wealth, not the government.

The Colombian protesters feel that they have lost confidence in their own government, perhaps due to negligence and corruption. Colombian protesters want the opportunity to vote Colombia into a mutual system of government. The demonstrators also wanted to give non-profit organizations the opportunity to take in money from large companies in the form of quick action checks. Quick action control would allow a non-profit organization to use a large donation quickly instead of having to wait for a tax write-off to take place. Those who have the greatest resources must also give away forty percent of their income to a collective pile in order to be disrupted in work programs and a basic income.

The Colombian police system

The Colombian police force is notorious for its horrific behavior. You ask any Colombian in the poverty-stricken areas. What have they experienced with the Colombian police? They're probably laughing in your face. Why? Because the Colombian police force is the military. The Colombian police force is used to fighting extremely dangerous cartel members, as well as the Colombian terrorist group FARC. The Colombian police system will only learn this year how to deal with peaceful protesters. The Colombian police system is known for extreme acts of physical, emotional and sexual violence.

Police reform

The protest in Colombia wants extreme police policy reform. Police in riot gear stormed a rally on Friday, removing hundreds of protesters by truck. They want a proper justice system that allows civilians to bring charges against the police who commit extreme acts of violence. They also want a fair trial for Afro-Latinos. The Colombian protesters want accusations against everyone who murdered their accomplices.

Women's rights and universal childcare.

Many of the women in Colombia earn less than some of the men. The women in the protest want equal pay for every dollar a man earns. They also require paid leave to care for their children. They would also like universal kindergarten; many families in poorer communities cannot even afford kiter gardens. Many of the men among the protesters do not agree that this should be a talking point, but it is obvious that it is a necessity.

Equal rights for POC and LGBTQ

LGBTQ

Many members of the LGBTQ community have reported violence against them; nor can they go to the police for fear of further discrimination from the police department. Many jobs in Colombia simply discriminate against LGBTQ people and do not allow them to work, rent apartments, go to school and just enjoy daily activities.

POC

Many members of the POC community have reported violence against them; nor can they go to the police for fear of further discrimination from the police department. Many jobs in Colombia directly discriminate against POCs and do not allow them to work, rent apartments, go to school and just enjoy daily activities.

the conclusion

Throughout and through, the Covid-19 pandemic was a terrible virus that shook the world. Millions of people have died and millions more, the economic structure we all seemed to depend on, disappeared right under our feet. The people of the United States demanded answers, resources and a better life for people living on the fringes of society. The Colombians followed. They took to the streets and blocked roads to disrupt traffic and gather attention. They are crying out for a universal basic income, police reform, equal rights for marginalized individuals. The protests in Cali and Bogota as well as the rest of Colombia are still ongoing. Recently, the Colombian government deployed troops to Cali in hopes of forcing protesters to power. The protesters are still strong, but it is uncertain how long they will last.

With an extremely violent police force that has killed 64 protesters, bloodthirsty cartel members who have ransacked local communities with drugs, radical terrorists who have attacked the Colombian civil court, a murderous militia that attacks protesters without police intervention, and a lax government that does nothing to help , the people of Colombia need a lot of support. They need their voices heard, and they need the path to first world status.
