Dolores Cacuango, also known as Mamá Doloreyuk, was a leader in the fight for indigenous rights in Ecuador born on this day in 1881. She was active in the Glorious May Revolution of 1944 and co-founded the Indigenous Federation of Ecuador (FEI).
Cacuango was born to enslaved people in San Pablourco who worked the Pesillo Hacienda near Cayambe without being paid. She had no access to education due to her lack of resources, and learned Spanish while working as a housemaid.
In 1930, Cacuango was among the leaders of the historic workers' strike at the Pesillo hacienda in Cayambe, which was a milestone for indigenous and peasant rights. During the Glorious May Revolution in Ecuador, Cacuango personally led an assault on a government military base.
The same year, with the help of Ecuador's Communist Party, Cacuango co-founded the Indigenous Federation of Ecuador (FEI), an early group in the fight for indigenous rights. She also helped establish some of the first bilingual indigenous schools.

A girl posted a tiktok about how much working and commuting sucks and people on twitter are dunking on her but she's 100% right? Lol. Both generally, but specifically it sounds like she has over an hour long commute too. I don't think older generations realize how much things suck now. You're commuting further for less money and paying more in rent
Honestly though how is not hating work an acceptable opinion. Linkedin has rotted too many brains. "Take this job and shove it" is the true patriotic american way, if grindset guys don't like it move to Qatar and become a slave idc.
anybody who doesn't hate their job is a psychopath
Death to America
of course
