Latinoamérica es un territorio de lucha y resistencia urbana. 🌎✊ Como señala **Raquel Rolnik** (urbanista brasileña), *'la vivienda es un derecho, no una mercancía'*, y **Mike Davis** (geógrafo crítico) nos recuerda que *'las ciudades neoliberales son fábricas de desigualdad'*.
Desde el **Movimiento Sin Tierra (MST)** en Brasil —donde mujeres y hombres construyen asentamientos autogestionados— hasta las **asambleas feministas en Argentina** que ocupan plazas para tejer redes de cuidado, nuestras ciudades son semillas de otro mundo posible. 🌱🏘️
¡La lucha urbana es anticapitalista, antifascista y feminista! ¡La calle es nuestra! #UrbanismoLatinoamericano #MST #Rolnik #MikeDavis #FeminismoUrbano #urbanismo #UrbanismoCritico

[...] what makes us most vulnerable is the abruptness of what is called the ‘wildland-urban interface’, where real estate collides with #FireEcology." - #MikeDavis

"From the mixed pine and oak forest in the Klamath Mountains to the Mojave Desert, Sierra Foothills, there is not an inch of California that is not now part of this conflagration and it's true throughout the American West of course"

"...we're gonna put kids in cages. It's gonna be glorious." -- Mike Davis, potential next AG.

I thought MAGA wanted to empty the US of supposedly horrible people who are destroying the country. Now it's a giggle-fest about the "glory" of "[putting] kids in cages."

If you voted for Trump and identify as a Christian, you're deluded. And you've redefined what it is to be American.

"Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free..." Yeah. Right.
