In Mexico City, activists are protesting the eviction of the autonomous community space Chanti Ollin, which was violently raided last month by hundreds of riot police with military equipment, including two helicopters and a tank. The space was one of the oldest squats in Mexico City and was located in the rapidly gentrifying downtown financial district. On Monday, activists protested outside the Attorney General’s Office to demand officials return the space to the community and close the cases against the 26 people who were arrested during the eviction on November 22.
