This was from 2017 and I have not been hearing about protests this time around but I am wondering if people are worried about violence at them inciting by Trump, who has shown this tendency in the past, of course. This young protestor is likely a teenager now and I feel the most sorry for kids who have now lived through so much damage to their country and their world.
It would be wrong to ignore the racism and sexism in America that is largely responsible for our current reality. However, make no mistake that there were many steps of voter suppression and redistricting to make sure that all votes didn't count equally or could be cast as easily.
In this country, it is not possible to hold most professional jobs (even an Occupational Therapist) as a felon but one can somehow hold the office of presidency. That is likely because no one in their wildest imagination could have dreamed a reckless criminal with complete disregard for Democracy could take over.
And here we are....stuck.

In the coming weeks and months, the United States Congress faces decisions on the U.S.-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement and the future of support for the fifth largest recipient of U.S. assistance in the world. Recent developments in Colombia, one of the longest-standing allies of the United States in the Americas, including the on-going investigation into ties between paramilitary organizations and sectors of Colombia's governing class have raised questions regarding the future direction of U.S. policy toward Colombia. In a spirit of open communication, The Americas Project at the Center for American Progress is pleased to host a conversation with His Excellency Alvaro Uribe, President of Colombia, about these and other issues that shape the relationship between two of the most closely interconnected countries in the Americas.
