5. I was in Barcelona in 2022 and saw Spanish Police beat up African Immigrant street vendors. I have to say I was shocked.

As a white American I naively thought Europe was more liberal and nice but black people are persecuted all over the damn world and it needs to stop! I know this post is about the floatilla activists but police brutality against any people who aren't part of the status quo seems to be happening everywhere. I have to wonder if the situation will be getting better or worse as financial and climate strains on populations aggravate everything.
