S3 Ep5: Fare strikes, What if we all just didn’t pay for the bus?

What happens when riders refuse to pay, and do it together? In this episode, we explore the fare strike as a bold social justice tactic, where collective refusal to pay transit fares, or drivers' refusal to collect them, becomes a tool to demand more equitable public services. From Chile to Japan, fare strikes have been used to demand better public transport, job protection and wage increases - but does it always work? Can we just stop paying for the bus to protest privatisation? Or does it require a deeper, more strategic approach.
