“On one side are those who defend workers’ rights, on the other are people who would not even have abolished slavery in our country.”

Hundreds of workers in Rio de Janeiro took the streets on Monday to protest Brazil’s “6-1” work system, which allows one day of rest for six working days

Protests in Bolivia are demanding the resignation of Rodrigo Paz, the country’s first right-wing president in decades. Since Paz took office in November 2025, the country has been placed under austerity measures that have led to a surge in poverty rates for much of Bolivia’s rural and working-class population

“It’s About People Feeding Their Families”: Indigenous-Led Anti-Austerity Protests Rock Bolivia

Protests in Bolivia are demanding the resignation of Rodrigo Paz, the country’s first right-wing president in decades. Since Paz took office in November 2025, the country has been placed under austerity measures that have led to a surge in poverty rates for much of Bolivia’s rural and working-class population. We speak to Kathryn Ledebur, director of the Andean Information Network in Cochabamba, Bolivia, about the monthlong protests. “Bolivia is a country where, for 19 years, Indigenous people and social movements enjoyed equal rights and political inclusion,” she explains. “There’s a huge break between what Paz promised and what he’s done in practice, which is select a white, upper-middle-class Cabinet with only two women, reject any genuine dialogue, reject interaction with the Bolivian social movements, or even have any empathy for people and what they’re going through day to day.” Ledebur also discusses the Paz administration’s growing ties with the Trump administration as the U.S. seeks to expand its so-called war on drugs throughout Latin America.

This is what Bolivia's highways look like at the moment.

Each town & village blocks their stretch, and the union members in each community take turns at the barricades. This is part of the general strike against neoliberalism. Now entering week 3.

Is this the beginning of a counteroffensive in the streets against the new right-wing wave in Latin America?

Hoy he ido por vez primera a una asamblea del sindicato y he salido encantado, no sé porqué no había ido antes. Hemos compartido penas y supongo que lo que dicen que mal de muchos etc etc es cierto. En cualquier caso ayuda saber que hay más gente con tus problemas y que nos ayudamos y salen colaboraciones inesperadas. Me pone triste sin embargo lo mucho que había olvidado lo reconfortante que es la interacción humana, es una mierda.
