For the past nine days, the streets of Colombia have been full of protesters venting their anger at the government. The state’s authoritarian and violent response has been disproportionate and unjustifiable, and must end immediately.
The protests were initially provoked by a tax reform project that has since been discarded. Now, they have taken on a new meaning, addressing not only other structural problems throughout Colombian society but also against the brutality of the police that has been witnessed throughout the country.
