00:11oppose the rise of the far-right in Rio de Janeiro young people marched this
00:15Thursday through the streets of the city's northern district to engage with
00:19the public details in the following work by Andre Vieira and Sebastian Soto
00:27once again class was held in the streets for the fourth day in a row since the first round of
00:33elections in Brazil students in Rio de Janeiro took to the streets this Thursday they marched
00:38through the Villa Isabel neighborhood to express their support for the re-election of president
00:43and candidate Lula da Silva Brazilian universities took to the streets because we know what the
00:50Bolsonaro administration meant for Brazilian education we know the damage caused by the
00:54administrations of Michel Temer and Jair Bolsonaro because most of the people are poor most of the
01:04people are black and most of the people are women bolsonarism is directly against all of these people
01:11women black people and LGBT plus people so taking to the streets is a way of showing that Bolsonaro and
01:18the far-right won't win so easily this Thursday's March set out from the State University of Rio de
01:28Janeiro and made its way through the neighborhood to engage with residents especially those who did
01:33not vote in the first round across the country more than 33 million voters did not turn out to vote
01:40on
01:40October 4th the importance of this youth revolution is to raise awareness among older people to make
01:48them understand that Flavio Bolsonaro is no good and that if we don't fight for this we'll face a new
01:53dictatorship the student protest movement which has taken to the streets in all five regions of the
02:03country is protesting for example the education cuts implemented during the administration of Jair
02:09Bolsonaro father of candidate Flavio Bolsonaro in 2022 alone the last year of the far-right
02:16administration nearly 650 million U.S. dollars were cut from the Ministry of Education's budget
02:26we are the ones who are losing our rights today our universities are being burned down and we have
02:32to be here in the streets fighting for this fighting for President Lula who has done so much for us
02:37and
02:38we have to be here alongside all these people from the university all of us here protesting so that
02:43these fascists don't take power young people also marched in support of the bill submitted to Congress
02:52by President Lula's administration which guarantees at least two days of rest per week for workers
02:57and puts an end to the six-day workweek followed by one day of rest workers already contribute a lot
03:08to society a five-day workweek with two days off is the minimum they should have in terms of quality
03:13of life and even the opportunity to participate in politics therefore I believe that the end of the
03:18six-day workweek with one day off is a matter of civilization or barbarism it is the absolute
03:23minimum in a society where profit is valued more than life and I choose that life is worth more than
03:28anything else that there is life beyond work until October 25th when the second round is scheduled young
03:38people vowed to take to the streets in social media to reverse the result of the first round which placed
03:44the
03:44far right in the lead andre Etz and vieri sebastian soto tele sur brazil
