 music and culture to empower youth in the barrio of El Valle in Caracas, 
 Venezuela. Situated on an old cement parking lot transformed into a 
 community constructed cultural center, Tiuna el Fuerte now hosts a hip-hop 
 school, youth orchestra, media lab, mobile community radio, and serves as 
 an example for reclaimed space for the community. The project exemplifies 
 the concept of local development of the people, for the people, by the 
 people that finds its roots in modern day Venezuela.\n\n\n--->Video Chamba

 severance and vacation pay.\n\n240 members of the United Electrical, Radio 
 and Machine Workers of America (UE) decide to stay in the factory and 
 occupy the plant until they get what they are owed…\n\nIn English and
