Rigging and calling for new elections look i think all has reacted by bringing in tanks and threatening violence musician eric is among those who stand firm and refuse to be intimidated by this show of strength eric has given up his job at the National Theatre in minsk to join the protests like many belarussians he doesnt believe look at promises of reform he is hoping for political change in his country and an answer to the autocracy that has lasted for 26 years. You you this is as close to their state as the ensemble who pull a theater in midstream get nowadays. Theyve been locked out after joining tens of thousands of others demonstrating against the government. Every day they hold a vigil. While this gathering is illegal the policeman interns coming out to sing is enough to face arrest. Joining them is double bass player eric since bell russas recollection demonstrating has become part of daily life especially after he and his colleagues resigned in spectacular fashion. Beat it they shouted as they literally threw their resignation letters at the culture minister speak a c but soon went viral online. It just felt that i couldnt keep on working for a government theater in a situation like this when we have such an abuse of power going on no. No no i think there was almost performers were able to just go out on stage and carry on as if nothing had happened. Or. Indeed bell reuss is a country almost unrecognizable since the rigged election on august 9th. Hundreds of thousands of bell russians have taken to the streets in peaceful protests demanding fresh elections. They be met with Police Brutality and mass arrests. I. Have friend of mine left this building to take a look at what was going on. Just as he was coming home they arrest the time. He was beaten up badly and they even could office here they said it was too little or no we will destroy the. To stand with her arms raised for hours on end the affair dropped their arms they were a major day it would have a time of war. But the protests have continued week after week. These are the biggest demonstrations the country has seen in a quarter of a century. In spite of government threats and countless arrests. And theyre not confined to the streets. Its a weekday afternoon like any other summer rusty market that is until eric and his friends arrive. I its a song has become an Unofficial National anthem and part of the soundtrack of these protests it doesnt take long for the shoppers to react i. Every sunday tens of thousands of people flood the streets of minutes for the weeks main protest. This time the police blocked roads trying to split the protesters into smaller groups. Police are joined by soldiers in full riot gear. But its not enough to feed the protesters out walking on a sunday in their city many even bringing their children. They can feel more like a festival than a demonstration that they had to for the if they can endure this march this will by so many people are out on the streets who feel safe to get there because you know what im a machine is the Armored Police trucks dont scare you anymore when youre surrounded by 100000 other demonstrators. With the v. A. You know if the government is trying to demoralize. But were stronger. We wear them down with sheer numbers. Because all bit by bit we look at their dad. I long that will take and what kind of country will emerge from these protests no one can see with any certainty but there is one thing you hear time and time again in belarus right now people tell you they are just tired of being scared another man who isnt easily intimidated is vince and he has taken up the fight against one of germanys Largest Energy firms the company has been allowed to relocate is not bad and all the other People Living in the village of kind back in western germany to expand its coal mining activities in the area but many villages are not ready to give up their homes. For close to the digger gets to the village the greater the threat to Norbert Vincent and its farm. For this is the Property Line here and the digger is already right there in front. Its about 3 or 400 meters away its come a lot closer in the last few months. Only 3 more years than his home undesigned would have disappeared to godfather europes largest open cast lignite mind. Germany has pledged to phase out coal of by 2038 but thats too late for the vid since. They live as an extended family on this historic farm with a 1000 square metres of land. My grandfather was resettled here because of that same mine more than 60 years ago when he was he was told that there was an old farm here that he could take over and hed be safe here you know now were the 4th generation and it seems well have to leave again because of the mine. Vic hes all seat hurt. We dont want to leave this one though. The vincents want to defend themselves but most of the neighbors have given up even though its difficult for them. You know i went in for having to leave our home is really tough because will never find another place like this if they tell us that we have to leave then theres nothing we can do about it. Theyre being relocated from their traditional sentrys old farming villages to unfinished new settlements the lignite Mining Company or w e tells us that 80 percent of the villagers agreed to the compensation while many are struggling others think that resettlement is a good thing. There are people who work for our. Relatives who do and of course they are in favor because theyre concerned about their job. And there are other people besides them who see the benefits in. Terms of money the relocation deal isnt unfair i have to admit. But illness is old village with the orchards the words on the well that means much more to him than a new development thats what he supports the ones who want to stay and fight like marie to address my parents keep saying they dont want to go through it again having to leave my mother says that often and then she starts to cry she says she would rather die than see a coal digger destroy everything here and take her home and. That is why she and her song cofounded the initiative all villages remain to take a stand against a political decision to excavate 6 more villages in the rhineland coal mining area. For me just as far as the question of justice it is not fair that people have to leave their own ass because of a 19th century form of energy. Initiatives attracted support from climate activists and this has caused a stir in the otherwise quiet and long forgotten villages that surround the mind for some the protests are a cause for concern but others like the dress and see the support from the Climate Protection Movement as a chance to stop the diggers for god. Its given us a lot of strength theres a feeling that we might actually manage this i think its a great sign. Climate activists have been camping on the edge of the villages for weeks the demonstrations unite different worlds in one go. Ive learned that its important to get out of your bubble and be open to different forms of protest and different people thats all working together for the same cause at least im not just going to see it. For villagers its about loss and destruction they dont understand why they have to lose their homes. They say lignite is not compatible with the parts agreement on Climate Change the resettlement measure is excessive and that residents rights are equal to human rights. Trying to keep all of the villages and we wont back down one bit and it is too late 3rd its a rotten kinder. The others we will persevered. This weekend around 1000 people came together from the villages and beyond to form a human chain salak protective wall for the villages which are still losing ground to the mine.
