#Mexico - Clashes between police and protesters broke out during the march organized by #teachers from the National Coordinator of Education Workers (CNTE).
They think they are very radical in the CNTE, but in reality they join forces with the right wing."
That is the criticism made by President Claudia Sheinbaum. (The government that would not repress the people 🤡)
Hundreds of teachers marched once again in the historic center of the Mexican capital during the 48-hour national strike called by the CNTE union to demand increased education funding, improved conditions in rural schools, and the repeal of the 2007 ISSSTE law and the 2019 education reform.
After the clashes with police, teachers set up a tent city in front of the Chamber of Deputies building to demand the government respond to their demands.
The National Coordinator of Education Workers (CNTE), one of Mexico’s most powerful teachers’ unions, has maintained a series of protests in Mexico City since May 15 as part of a national strike to demand changes in working and educational conditions.
Demonstrations have included toll booth takeovers, embassy protests, sit-ins at the capital’s Zócalo, blockades at Mexico City International Airport (AICM) and main roads.
