Wednesday the 6th - A March for Freedom

Professors, workers and the students of the UCV (Universidad Central de Venezuela) had called upon a march on Tuesday, the students from all the other houses of study answered. However the goverment refused to allow them to march that day, so the date was switched to Wednesday. Once again the goverment tried to not allow the march to happen, however this time the students decided that theyre were going to march.

at 7:00 am the concentration of people started inside the UCV, a couple loud explosions went off somewhere in the school but nothing happened. The leaders of the student movement blamed the government and its followers as it was obvious that they wanted to scare the students from marching.



The goverment has lost the youth....

Students from universities from cities relatively close to Caracas tried to join the march; to their surprise they found contingents of Police and the National Guard holding traffic in all highways leading to Caracas. The buses of the students were stopped for 2-3 hours and either turned back or arrived to Caracas too late.

Some of the students reacted by sitting in the highways and singing and yelling demanding their rights. However, It was pretty much impossible to get to Caracas.




This guy was seen at the top of buildings. A member of the Army. What was he doing there? Why so heavily armed?
Are you scared Hugo? I bet you are.



Hugo.
The youth isn't with the Revolution.

"When one voice is silenced, we all become mute. When one thought is eliminated, we all lose some awareness. And when a space for the expression of ideas becomes closed, we all become trapped in the dungeons of dictatorship. The authoritarian populism of Venezuela strives to convert all of the people of Latin America into silent citizens, and we cannot permit this.

Latin America’s common enemies are poverty, inequality and exclusion — not dissident thought. Hunger is not fought by silencing critics. Unemployment does not disappear by exiling those who think differently. We cannot have bread without liberty. We cannot have nations without democracy."
