The crisis facing our country has led citizens to rise up and go out to protest against President Pedro Castillo's administration. Several protests are taking place in Peru, especially in the capital and regions.
Given this, through social networks, a national cacerolazo has been called for this Tuesday, April 5 at 8 pm. It means that from home or wherever you are, you can make use of pots or lids, to peacefully protest against new government measures.
Recall that the cacerolazo was called on April 4 by former congressman César Combina of Fuerza Popular. At noon on April 5, the situation changed, as pans were heard in various districts of Lima.
“Let it be heard until Palacio! Peru grew tired of Pedro Castillo and Dina Boluarte. Today we will say peacefully and massively: Fuera Castillo,” he wrote on his Twitter account César Combine.
Through social networks, some users favored this initiative, as the stoppage of carriers is causing great economic losses to our country. In addition, prices in the markets rise excessively.
“Is it time for Lima to demonstrate, what do you think of a pot today at 8:00pm?” “Not Castillo or Cerrón.” “Today, #Cacerolazo for all Peruvians.” “We must all join today's cacerolazo at 8pm. Castillo resigns now”, were some of the comments that joined the request of the former congressman of Fuerza Popular.
ORIGIN OF THE CACEROLAZO: THE POPULAR PROTEST THAT SHATTERS A COUNTRY
For more than 180 years, the cacerolazo has become a tool for peaceful expression related to any type of complaint, but which in most cases is political in accordance with the current situation and which affects a significant percentage of civilians.
In these social circumstances, a pot or pan becomes the weapon of citizens to demand conscientious attention and action for the good of the people.
Although this collective activity has been adopted by most countries in Latin America, it has a European origin. 189 years ago, the Napoleonic Wars had a devastating impact on France, with its economy in agony, being one of the main obstacles to development. This scenario caused the inhabitants to look for new ways to make themselves heard without putting their lives at risk. This is how they began to use the pans to generate annoying noises in rejection of the pronouncements of the authorities.
