In This Will Not Pass, journalist Martin Lukacs travels to the front lines of these uprisings to meet the people who are fighting for a better future. He talks to protesters, activists, and leaders, and he hears their stories of hope, courage, and determination.

Lukacs shows that these uprisings are not just about anger and frustration. They are about a deep-seated desire for change. People are tired of living in a world where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. They are tired of being treated like commodities by corporations and governments. They are tired of living in a world where there is no justice.

The uprisings of 2019-2020 are a sign of hope. They show that people are no longer willing to accept the status quo. They are demanding change, and they are not going to give up until they get it.

This Will Not Pass is a powerful and inspiring book that tells the story of a global revolt. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the challenges facing our world today and the people who are fighting to make it a better place.

The Global Revolt

The global revolt of 2019-2020 was a wave of protests and demonstrations that took place in over 100 countries around the world. The protests were sparked by a variety of factors, including economic inequality, political corruption, and environmental degradation.

In some countries, the protests were led by specific groups, such as the yellow vests in France or the protesters in Hong Kong. In other countries, the protests were more spontaneous and leaderless.

Despite the diversity of the protests, they all shared a common goal: to demand change. The protesters were calling for an end to austerity, corruption, and inequality. They were also demanding greater democracy and accountability from their governments.

The protests in Chile were marked by violence, with rioting and looting taking place in some cities. However, the protests also showed the resilience and determination of the Chilean people. The protesters refused to give up, even in the face of police violence.

In November 2019, the Chilean government agreed to hold a referendum on a new constitution. The referendum, which was held in October 2020, resulted in a vote in favor of a new constitution.

The new constitution is expected to include a number of progressive measures, such as a guaranteed minimum wage, universal healthcare, and environmental protections. The adoption of a new constitution is a major victory for the Chilean people and a sign of the potential for change that the global revolt has unleashed.
