The student revolt in Brazil is mushrooming. São Paulo students chant, "this is going to turn into Chile," recalling the 2006 rebellion by Chilean high school students. In Brazil, the Class Struggle Committee (the trade union tendency linked to the Liga Quarta-Internacionalista do Brasil) advocate that the state teachers union of Rio de Janeiro, the SEPE-RJ, and other unions carry out work stoppages in solidarity with the students.
