😣 Although I felt anguish, fear, and sadness due to the over-information on social networks, I try to stay informed without saturating myself. I attended virtual talks, I read alternative journalism. I try to keep in touch with my closest networks. In my opinion, it's important to be informed of what's happening in our country, because we must build critical opinions, with arguments.

😷 Masks represent a new reality. When people marched, many people said that the peak of contagion would increase. I say that it is a bit contradictory because when people take public transport daily, which is always full, the risk of contagion is maintained. When you are in closed places like shopping centers or banks, the risk remains.

In conclusion, my participation and my process of political training happened in the middle of talks and assemblies, but also, in the middle of wash the dishes, laundry, clean the yard of the dogs, walk them, listen to my mom telling me her worries, explain her the daily news, find a new hobby, moments of fun and read a lot to grow up personally and professionally. Taking care of myself and others.

Political and social participation are activities that require a large amount of available time, as to listen to people’s opinions as to sit down about one's own position. I realized that an equal distribution of household chores with my mom was, oddly enough, a form to support the Strike... but why?

If the National Strike is a way to demand a change in our living conditions, I am sure that the changes must begin with our personal relationships. Taking actions to allow the women - in this case, my mom - to have better-living conditions, is possible starting for that equal distribution of care work as a matter of justice with the time of life of each one.

Basically, all the ways that I found to support the Strike from home are related to the strategies to better cope physically and mentally with this situation.

''During the Strike, I had many feelings of anguish, indignation, sadness, and anger for the Human Rights violations,...Concern for the academic and labor future...  and also the difficulty to understand the opinion of those who did not agree with the National Strike...''

''Also, distrust of an institution such as the police that had begun earlier was strengthened...''

‘'I did not participate in person in the Strike but I could find other ways to do it, in social networks, sharing content, trying to watch and listen to home alternative media and avoid hegemonic media…''

''....Feeling and thinking are in a close relationship, they cannot be separated.  Then not having participated in the protest makes me feel guilty, however, it is related to the care work, political participation, and Human Rights, because for me it was not possible to give up my daily care work at home, so I could not participate in the protest. There is a great difficulty for caregivers to participate in political life, the government does not guarantee any of their rights and the distribution of this work depends on the services that each person can be paid for…''

''Here is with which I want to participate in a chain of artists in support of Strike buy my daily routines did not allow me to finish it. Also, a song that I met during the mobilization week…''

"The National Strike generated two great feelings for me. The first is fear associated also with the uncertainty of whether it would work. The second is hope, the fact that a new generation is rising up, they are raising their voices, taking actions to make themselves felt".

"The way in which I participated in the strike has been mostly through social networks, sharing ideas in which I agree … actively participating in the same in the middle of some marches, that although I did not get to participate in all of them, it was because of lack of time and sometimes for fear of police repression".

"Work care can be that effort of everyone to take care of oneself and others, and more in the midst of the pandemic".

"Since the strike this a form of political participation understood as the way in which we express ideas and want society and life to move forward… Form of expression where ideas of how the environment is wanted are shared".

"It caused me sadness to see bad news every day, negative news about police abuse, lack of guarantees for mobilization, and social protest".

"At first, a feeling of joy, seeing how different social sectors came together and joined forces to make themselves heard. See the solidarity among the same people".

"Tried to be active by sharing complaints on social networks, sharing relevant information for the people who were mobilized".

"Human Rights are directly related to care work, the care of life. Defending Human Rights is defending life".

"I consider that in the field of political participation ideas move, those ideas mobilize feelings".

"Care work is much broader, it’s not limited to political and the relationship of human rights. Care work is in all spheres of human life".

Look at the next pictures. These photographs are a bit of my life in the strike and why not, in the pandemic.

🌿 Taking care of my plants reminds me that caring is not just for humans. Care is in all life, in animals, plants, towards myself, my personal space … I think we are always taking care of others, and at the same time, some people take care of us.

🧘‍♀️To take care of myself, I like to exercise, listen to music, talk with my friends, watch movies or just eat something delicious.

My experience during the weeks of the National Strike was a challenge on a physical and emotional level because it was mainly one objective: maintain daily energy, keep calm, and hope. Daily I had to find strategies for self-care and the care of those living with me.
Before the beginning of the Strike, the pandemic was already a difficult scenario for me because the characteristics of my family life required me to take every precaution to avoid any possibility of infection by the virus. Mentally and physically is an exhausting situation.
The beginning of the Strike due to the great social, economic, and political crisis of the country was sufficient reason to take to the streets and support all the calls of mobilization. However, those dates were the same date on which my parents received their first dose of the virus vaccine. Each day was for me a contradiction feeling: We had to go to the streets to defend and continue to care for life, but, at the same time, not marching was also a way of doing so ...
