(en) Brazil, OSL:[CINE CELIP / SP]- Anti-prohibitionism, State Violence and Popular Power (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Sun, 20 Sep 2026 08:24:19 +0300


In this year of 2026, to the surprise of absolutely no one, drugs are winning the War on Drugs, as they do every year. More people are killed, more are imprisoned, but the illegal drug trade also increases, as does consumption, as well as the power, profit, and reach of the organizations that traffic them. --- On one hand, this war enriches the bourgeoisie and kills young Black, poor, and marginalized people every day. On the other hand, it enriches the bourgeoisie and prevents the people from accessing medicines for various diseases. But the working class is also increasingly organized in anti-prohibitionist movements, collectives, associations, and federations to fight for and impose its interests on these issues!

There's a lot of money involved, whether illegally or legally, such as in the cannabis market. With numerous industrial uses, large companies become interested, leading to more exploitation of the working class's labor. And here we have a new discussion: the rights of workers in the legal cannabis market.
Come debate the subject and watch Smoke Screen (2010), a Brazilian documentary by Rodrigo Mack Niven that discusses the failed "drug control" policies and their political and social effects.
Afterwards, we will have a chat about labor rights in the cannabis market, with doctoral candidate Rogério Zito, who is researching the subject, and how to build popular power in this scenario.
About CELIP
The dominant discourse disseminates a "certain" history, which distorts the past and recognizes its ideology as the only possible reality. In addition to this official history, in our days various reactionary readings of the past and present are emerging, driven by the logic of social media algorithms. Thinking about this situation, the demand for knowledge and the importance of a history that fights against the forgetting of the struggles of the oppressed classes*, the Ideal Peres Libertarian Studies Center (CELIP) invites everyone to CineCELIP! Come along!

Date: August 30th, Sunday, at 2 PM

Location: Rua Major Diogo, 219, 1st floor, Bixiga See less
