Abstract
ABSTRACT The 2021 National Strike in Colombia laid bare social discontent exacerbated by structural inequalities in its society. It provided a much-needed platform for those historically excluded voices, including those of young people. They raised their voices to challenge the meanings of the violent past to construct an activist and politicized citizenship. I will analyze from a discursive-performative stance the meanings that emerge in the protest taking as corpus two graffiti. These materials’ irruptions give room to doubts, complaints, demands of justice, and new questions about the memories of violence as they open the space to a political we.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Poverty is the first refereed journal to recognize the inequalities in our social, political, and economic structures, presenting progressing strategies that expand society"s increasingly narrow notions of poverty and inequality. The journal"s broad understanding of poverty—more inclusive than the traditional view—keeps the focus on people"s need for education, employment, safe and affordable housing, nutrition, and adequate medical care, and on interventions that range from direct practice to community organization to social policy analysis. The journal"s articles will increase your knowledge and awareness of oppressive forces such as racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia that contribute to the maintenance of poverty and inequality.
