BLOG 5: Reflections on the demonstrations at FACSO

Hello dear companions and teacher, a pleasure to return to the blog. On this occasion I will give my opinion about the refletions on the demonstrations at FACSO.

First, I must say that I did not participate much in the process for personal reasons, I only attended to one assembly and I voted 3 times, but that does not mean that I did not support the movement. I do agree with the request made by the womans at FACSO, because I think it is urgent to make visible the gender violence that was lived in the university community and that continues in the society, instead of continuing to naturalize them. 

I think that all the work that my colleagues did was to start a change, since this at least got the attention of the country, for example, they broadcast the marches in the news and debated in the homes, although this is a slow and difficult process, he called to reflect to the Chileans. Also, I think that this deserves a respect and that it should not be overlooked. Also, the negative criticism only demonstrates the degree of oppression in which we find ourselves. Everyone deserves the same respect.

Regarding the loss of classes, I also think that it was regrettable and that maybe could be taken other forms of demonstration, but this is already done and the voices of the women were heard.

That's all, thanks for your attention, goodbye.

Nicole.
