El Pueblo Unido

A short video with the Ilti Illimani song “El Pueblo Unido“ as the background music. Note from the author: I made this video for two reasons: the first is to show the power that the people have to change their surroundings. I do not mean this as in “work hard and you too can become a corporate sell-out with 3 cars, 5 ex wives and a $10 million house!“. I mean this as “we, the people, need to come together and shape the world. We cannot let the upper classes shape it for themselves with no regard for the rest of society.“ The second reason is to show that there is a way to achieve such a thing. That we, as a collective and as a people, can come together and make great things happen. The revolutions throughout South America are evidence of this. In Cuba, a powerful dictator backed by the USA and the CIA was toppled because even though the rebels were out manned and out gunned, they had the backing of the people, and were fighting for something other than a cruel dictator who didn’t care about his men. ¡El pueblo, unido, jamás será vencido!
