MariCarmen is the most common female name for several generations of Spanish women. Our mothers and grandmothers are called MariCarmen.
That is why the eviction this week of an elderly lady with that name, coupled with decades of housing injustice, has been the last straw. And just as every time our rage boils over in Spain, it turns into hope.
This protest camp is very reminiscent of the Sol protest camp 15 years ago, which became known as 15M in Spain
