00:00They fight with weapons.
00:11We fight with ideas.
00:20I was 45 years old,
00:23on the street with murals,
00:26together with a group of men and women
00:31who have given us all our lives to the fight.
00:35The day that we start or stop fighting,
00:43it's because we started to die.
00:46José, José.
00:52I was looking for the national leader of Ramón Aparra,
00:56the maximum authority of Ramón Aparra.
00:58I was detained by the elements of the repression,
01:02the political police, the CNI.
01:07I was tortured, incarcerated.
01:10The Brigade Ramón Aparra
01:17The Brigade Ramón Aparra
01:19is a brigade of agitation and political propaganda
01:23in its beginning.
01:25It's not like it was before.
01:27It's like they didn't have an objective
01:29as it was before,
01:30which was the candidate of the government,
01:32or the Neruda at the time,
01:34or the Allende,
01:36or the exit of Pinochet,
01:38who was 17 years old governing this country.
01:44There is a democracy for the one who lives and lives,
01:46for the one who tries to inform,
01:48for the one who realizes what is happening,
01:50the issue of the students,
01:52the issue of health.
01:53For the person who wants to complain a little more,
01:56I don't know how much democracy there is, in reality.
02:01It was necessary to be painted on the street
02:04as a way to denounce.
02:06It was also a way to march.
02:13The generational change
02:15and the change of the attitude of the colleagues
02:18is total.
02:19It's total.
02:20It's total.
02:23We want to make a mural of the BRP again.
02:26We're doing something new,
02:27I think.
02:28We're doing something new with the old ones.
02:33So young people are not thinking artists.
02:37So, what do you mean artists?
02:39That's my big question.
02:41First of all, I'm Bricada Ramón Aparra
02:43and then Pato Madero.
02:44That's the essential part.
