Young people are protesting in #TimorLeste this week against elites in parliament, low investment in education and job opportunities. "Parliament does not represent the people"

a sign in Tetun hangs from the roof that reads: “Independence is not to replace white people with black people, not to replace the flag, or replace those in government. It’s about destroying and severing the roots of this colonial exploitation.”

"Independence does not mean to replace white skin with black skin, it is not to replace one flag with the other flag, nor to replace people in the government, what we need the most is to end this colonial exploration." - youth protest in front of parliament 2022

This morning in Dili TL, numbers of youth were captured by the police, including 10 people with disabilities. They were captured just because of protesting less than 100 meters away from the parliament. This 100 meters distance in law is undemocratic and needed to be removed!

“we all are feminists now, aren’t we? I mean—look, look, just look around you. you—sitting in a class along with boys. who would have thought?” A sad nostalgia covers their scowl. Sure, we are. Sure, we are. We all are feminists now. - Palak Singh #FR132 journals.sagepub.com/share/5AKUX2VS…

Feminism since the beginning received attacks from various parties.Whether from the reactionaries false narrative that it only lifted women and put down men, or feminism is something imported. Tomorrow #Letras will host a live discussion on FB regarding Feminist struggles in TL!
