Gerardo Rojas is a community organiser in Barquisimeto, Lara, and a Chavista activist, a reference to the political movement of the working-class poor that backed former Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez. A founder of the alternative media collective Voces Urgentes ( https://vocesurgentes.wordpress.com/ ) (Urgent Voices) in 2002, he participated in one of the first urban communes, Comuna Socialista Ataroa (2007). Rojas was a vice-minister in the Ministry of Communes in 2015 and is part of the communication, education and political activism collective Tatuy TV ( https://tatuytv.org/quienes-somos/ ) , though the opinions expressed in this interview are his own.
