Que Pasa en el Barrio ?
In the very heart of Mexico, 100, 000 gather at the "garniaguerrero" which gathers 100, 000 inhabitants, people fight to preserve their district. Because of the increase in the demography of the city and the strategic situation of this area, the terrain has been submitted to a large financial speculation. Most of the people would be defined as low income families nd their means of subsistence are little, as there are very few businesses. To avoid eviction, they have created la "union de vecinos" (the neighbours' union) in order to fight for their rights and to prevent the destruction of their community.
