Trouble #9: Learning to Resist

Older generations never tire of reminding youth that the years they
spend on college or university campus are formative moments in their
lives, times that more often than not play an important role in shaping
the trajectory of their future careers and helping to determine the
types of adults that they will soon become. These are, after all, years
where new life-long friendships are made, politics are formed, and ideas
about one’s role in the world start to take hold. What these old-timers
often don’t tell you is that if you play your cards right, they can also
be the years when you participate in your first riot, flip over your
first cop car, occupy your first faculty building, or topple your first
government.

On this, the 50th anniversary of the global uprisings of 1968, subMedia
pays homage to the insurgent youth who helped kick things off a
half-century ago by taking a look at some contemporary student-led
movements that are still tearing things up around the world. In this
month’s episode of Trouble, the first of a two-part series on radical
student movements, sub.Media talks to a number of current and former
student organizers from so-called Puerto Rico, Quebec and Chile as they
share their experiences from the high-points of past struggles and
provide hard-fought lessons that can help prepare a new generation for
the battles to come.

Trouble #10: School’s Out

These are hard times for those pursuing a so-called “higher education”.
All around the world, state and regional governments continue to
implement strict neoliberal austerity policies aimed at slashing social
spending and transferring more and more public wealth to the rich. As a
result, the burden of financing educational institutions has
increasingly fallen on students themselves often in the form of rising
tuition fees and skyrocketing levels of personal debt. In societies with
entrenched levels of social and economic inequality, these high tuition
costs bar large segments of the population from accessing these
institutions altogether… which in turn helps to cement preexisting
divisions based on class, race and gender. Meanwhile, those who are able
to scale the walls of the ivory tower are increasingly graduating into
economies with paper degrees that do little to secure them well-paying
careers. Instead, these students often find themselves forced into
hyper-exploitative internships, or precarious jobs where they must toil
for decades to pay off their student loans.

In this month’s edition of Trouble, the second in a two-part series
marking the 50th anniversary of the student-led uprisings of 1968,
sub.Media continues to shine a light on contemporary student struggles
from around the world. This episode features interviews with current and
former student organizers from Mexico, South Africa and the United
States, as they share their personal experiences of participating in
campus occupations, student strikes, and insurrectionary attacks against
the capitalist and colonial education systems that shape their
collective present and seek to determine their shared future.
