🔊 The 15o episode of Brazil Workers’ Podcast is available: In this episode, we address the general strike of October 23 in Italy, called by CUB Trasporti, to protest against the social and economic policies of the government. The main demands of the strike were against the precariousness and exploitation of work, for a guaranteed and decent income for workers and retirees, for the right to health, education and housing, but also against privatizations and military expenses of one of the main imperialist states of Europe. To talk about this struggle, we have an interview with Daniele Cofani, national director of CUB Trasporti. In Chile, the 1980 authoritarian constitution has been kept by both right-wing and “left-wing” administrations over 30 years of “democracy”. That is a major achievement of the Chilean revolution which started on October 18, 2019.…

🔊 The 13o episode of Brazil Workers’ Podcast is available: In this episode, we address an issue that concerns not only Brazil but the whole world: the destruction of forests in Brazil, especially the Amazon and the Pantanal region. The number of fires burning in standing Amazon rainforest spiked dramatically in recent weeks, threatening the forest’s biodiversity — a richness of flora and fauna not adapted to withstand the flames. The forest burned is estimated at roughly 4.6 million acres (1.8 million hectares) — an area about three-fifths the size of Belgium. The Pantanal, the largest flooded region in the world, since the end of 2019 suffers a wave of fires. It is estimated that the flames have destroyed approximately 3.3 million hectares, or 22% of the region. The images have touched people around the world. In June of this year, the CSP-Conlutas entered with a representation at the PGR (Attorney General's Office), with the demand to remove Ricardo Salles from the ministry. For the CSP-Conlutas, what the government of Bolsonaro and Salles has done is criminal!…

To talk about the situation, we have in this edition the participation of the CSP-Conlutas leader, from the International Caucus, and Embraer metalworker, Herbert Claros.…
