Bolivian Reporter Denounces Jailing of Colleague By Coup-Borne Govt
In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Ollie Vargas, a journalist with Radio Kawsachun Coca, to talk about the detention of his colleague Lander Marca Veizaga by Bolivia's coup-borne government, why he thinks the move was meant to not only "intimidate certain journalists" but also send a message to indigenous and working-class-led social groups organizing large-scale food relief efforts amid the economic shutdown, and why the lack of aid for working people within Bolivia's largely-informal economy means so many are now feeling "abandoned" by the government.
