ESCRACHE-Beatriz Rodriguez-EVICTION-12April2013-Spain-001.JPG
Riot police ask for ID to an Anti-eviction activist (L) and smoke a cigaret (R) while people sit on a bench before protesters make their way to an 'escrache' outside the house of PP deputy Beatriz Rodriguez Salmones on April12, 2013 in Madrid, Spain. The Mortgage Holders Platform (PAH) and other anti evictions organizations have been organizing 'escraches' for several weeks under the slogan 'There are lives at risk' to claim the vote for a Popular Legislative Initiative (ILP) to stop evictions and facilitate social rent, outside Popular Party deputies' houses and offices. 'Escraches' are a form of peaceful protest that were used in Argentine in 1995 to publically denounce pardoned members of the dictatorship for their crimes at their doorsteps.
