Venezuela’s oil sector remained stable in August despite US sanctions, with OPEC placing output at 936,000 bpd and PDVSA reporting 1.098 million bpd including gas liquids. Exports reached 966,458 bpd, the highest since November 2024.

📝 INTERVIEW | Culture and Resistance: The Palmarito Afro-Descendant Commune

Afro-Venezuelan communards on the southern shore region of Lake Maracaibo discuss the intersection of culture and organization. The Chimbánguele drumming cycle around San Benito of Palermo is not only a religious devotion but also a way of learning leadership, collective responsibility, and self-governance.

While men lead the drumming, women take part through the Gaita de tambora, using song to tell stories, critique, and celebrate, ensuring their voices are central in the community.

Culture here is both memory and organization, a living practice that anchors communal life.
