The AIL – Brazil Section published a report on its Instagram account on actions carried out in Tijuca/Vila Isabel by the Bonde de Mao group, who took to the streets against Yankee intervention in Latin America, distributing hundreds of leaflets and chanting slogans.
The Instagram account also shared a music video for the song “Don’t vote – Struggle!”
AIL – Section Brazil writes:
“Music video for ‘Don’t Vote, Fight!’ Available on streaming platforms, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, and YouTube!
In the face of the current intensification of the crisis of imperialism—in which the Yankees are increasingly extending their tentacles into Latin America—only the mobilized, politicized, and organized masses can truly halt their offensive, that of the far right, and that of fascism! Enough of crumbs, depoliticization, and opportunism; the people want power in their own hands, and in Brazil, the most advanced vanguard of new power and a new democracy is found in the countryside, where the masses are most brutally affected by latifundium and imperialism—and, led by the League of the Poor Peasants, they are at the forefront of this struggle!
Down with opportunism and parliamentary cretinism!
Don’t vote – Struggle!
Long live the LCP!
Long live the agrarian revolution!
Death to imperialism!”
