the news about bolivia is so incredibly infuriating. the fact that people are happy about evo’s resignation, trying to convince everyone that this is what the majority wanted, that he cheated, that he rigged the elections even though he won the election fair and square, is infuriating. it is an insult to every indigenous person, every poor person, every working person, everyone who stood by and continues to stand behind evo in this. there is no reason to celebrate this. death to neoliberalism, death to the cia, death to capitalism and corporations and fascism. viva evo, viva bolivia.

my great uncle
some interesting facts about my great uncle who is a mysterious academic icon to me
- he went to Oxford AND Cambridge i don’t know why or how but he did he did history (1500-now) at oxford and social and economic history at cambridge. - he went to oxford when J.R.R Tolkien was a fellow of the school (after teaching) and told me Tolkien would eat lunch then stand on the table and recite Nordic/Viking poetry and it always confused the new students. - he knows at least 3 language i think. - he worked for the British government but we don’t know what he did and he won’t tell us. - is banned from Russia, China and USA for unknown reasons - lost all of his luggage on a conference/diplomatic(?) trip to Malaysia and had to order a custom suit and shoes because he was 6′4 and he has size 12 shoes. it was for the next day - the Bolivian (armed) police were sent to find him when he forgot to tell someone where he was going so they thought he had been kidnapped but instead he went to a museum that was put on lock down while people searched for him. he had no idea what was going on and when he got back to his hotel found dozens of notes under the door telling him to contact them when he got back and where he was. - lives most of the year opposite a castle then come up to visit my grand-dad and stays in his other house in a tiny *tiny* village which is not much more then a few houses on boggy marsh land/moors on the coast. - both of his houses are cozy and old and filled to the brim with books. Literally. i think the second house was actually just so he had another place for his books. - has met Prince Charles on multiple occasions and they always talk for hours and is on less formal (but still formal) terms with him. -met an MI6 spy at a garden party and didn’t know till his boss told him a few weeks later and only then he realised that the mans face was in no pictures. - is in his 60′s and only ever owned about 3-4 cars because he drives them till they fall apart. literally, only when the wheels and a door fell off did he get a new one. - is friends with a Lord who has a steam train on his estate that works, he goes around every now and then and goes on the train. - the name he goes by is actually his middle name because he doesn’t like his first name. -was a french teacher apparently
i’ll add more if i’m told more or remember more
(this was originally all nice and lined up but i used my phone so if it looks weird that’s why)
La Paz, Bolivia
Es la única persona con la que siento paz, la única que puede consolarme, la única a la que quiero y se encuentra a miles de kilómetros, la tenía a 5 minutos de mí, hoy la tengo a 15h y 1000$ de por medio:(

Fifteen years ago, Glenda Yañez put on the clothes of her ancestors.She had always admired how her grandmother dressed—her wide, layered skirt; a thick embroidered shawl; and a top hat leaning just so, two long and dark braids coming down her back. Yañez, who grew up in the bustling city of La Paz, Bolivia, had come of age in jeans and T-shirts.
That’s because her grandmother’s indigenous dress — known as the chola style — had for centuries been a target of acute discrimination. For most of Bolivia’s history, a Spanish-descended, white minority lorded over the country’s native majority in a system akin to apartheid. The chola wardrobe is a fashion distinctive to Bolivia’s second largest indigenous group, the Aymara people. And it’s one that has endured since the 1700s, even though it has brought with it heightened segregation.
