The San Cristobal Moment [Updated with subtitles]
The clip from Táchira lasts 26 seconds. A kid gets right up — RIGHT up — in a riot cop's face. What follows...crystallizes the volcanic fury and the deep humanity behind Venezuela's protest movement in a way no staged moment ever could.
This kid made his way into my dreams last night. Literally.
I hugged him. He cried in my arms.
That video. Jesus.
