SAN AGUSTÍN: POPULAR POWER STRIKING BACK AGAINST THE COUP AND THE CRISIS
(“Pueblo a Pueblo”, building food sovereignty)
This is a program the Maduro government started around the country about 2 years ago. This was to help locals grow their own food to combat some shortages and the price manipulations from the private sector in the grocery stores. If you watched the video I post with Max Blumenthal as he talked about in his time in a supermarket in Caracas recently. Another good read within the posted article.
(This is a cocktail of elements that does not make for an optimistic reading of the near future. Nevertheless, there is a lingering defiance in San Agustín and the popular neighbourhoods of Caracas in general. It is a historical phenomenon which also has very much to do with Chávez’s legacy, which empowered the poor black and brown majority as political subjects. Unidos San Agustín Convive is but a microcosm, but there are hundreds of similar experiences throughout the country.
Beyond the drastic improvement in people’s living conditions, or the regional integration projects, the most lasting legacy of Chavismo might be this critical mass that has embraced socialism as the historical horizon. And no empire is a match for that.)
When you hear the main stream media accuse the Maduro government of being repressive against the Afro Venezuelans, know that is also another false narrative being purposely spread by the war machine.
