On Friday August 6 at the HGO Public Library, Community Center Olga Vazquez (60 e / 10 and 11, La Plata) we had the opportunity to know the experiences of HR Brigades Madrid Neighborhood .
identity checks carried out by the police in public spaces of cities and municipalities of the English state to detain irregular migrants violate the most basic human rights and constitute a practice of harassment of those who prejudged as outside Europe. While these are scary roadblocks and inhibition of the people they serve, for many others who are not challenged by the police are now part of the landscape and are justified by the permanent state of suspicion appears to be installed on the other . Faced with these effects, which poison the neighborhood relationships are being weaving collective resistance responses. One of them try to face police harassment appealing to the practice of solidarity. Neighborhood Brigades Human Rights Observation in Madrid arise from the reflection of social organizations that seek to articulate a response against the proliferation of checkpoints in neighborhoods.
Their presence in public spaces intended impact on the screening of three different and complementary ways: making visible in the neighborhoods the systematic violation of rights exercised over part of the neighborhood, collecting valuable information for reporting complaint about their racist, xenophobic and class, and spreading knowledge about their own rights between neighbors. The brigades are open to resident participation, individual and collective, who share the belief that one has the opportunity and responsibility to act.
