In these moments almost all the “Universidad de Chile” is in Strike or Sit-in. Two days later, I went to the Demonstration for the education of character “National Strike” , to this Demonstration , more than hundred thousand persons were present, only in Santiago, because to national level, they represented more than two hundred thousand persons.
This protest, had things very assessable, because there had students, teachers, families and workers, all for a public education.
The Architecture Faculty always is present by is students. We always appear with creative Banners, in this opportunity, we had a Dragoon and the big cartoons of the prominent figures who have sold the education such as: Piñera, Lavín, Frei and Pinochet. All that together with a carnival, called “candombe”.
I think that the mass media, show the worst face of the marches, and the one that less represents us, in the news appear hooded person destroying and forcing, but they never show really the cultural activities and pacific demonstrations or very rarely.
The manifestations are a part of the civic culture that we have to have, The duty to demonstrate what does not seem to us and to construct a better world, but I understand that many persons don’t assist because they are afraid to the special forces.
The special forces are very repressive, the people are afraid to the Armoured Car, Rubber Bullets ( indeed in my faculty the last year, the special forces threw Rubber Bullets to the students and various of some of them were injured, also they damage the faculty)
However, I think that is the moment of fight for obtain changes in our educational system.
