Given the brutal police repression, thousands of young people organized themselves to carry out a national march on Saturday, November 14th. The organization took place through social media, mainly Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok. There was no leadership of a political party, workers union, nor organized collective. It was the youth, who without any prior experience in protests, decided to educate themselves into health brigades, bomb disposal, and free press.
Dada la brutal represión policial en las protestas, miles de jóvenes se auto-organizaron para realizar una marcha nacional el sábado 14 de noviembre. La organización ocurrió a través de redes sociales, principalmente Twitter, Instagram y TikTok. No hubo un liderazgo real de un partido político, central sindical, ni colectivo organizado. Fueron los jóvenes, quienes sin ningún tipo de experiencia previa en protestas, menos aún con alto grado de conflictividad, decidieron organizarse en brigadas de salud, de desactivación de bombas y de prensa.
