Izquierda Anticapitalista (IA)--Solidaridad Con La Resistencia Minera

2012

St. Lawrence University: Street Art Graphics; In the spring of 2012, in response to the Spanish government's severe austerity measures, Spanish miners from Asturias united to raise awareness and call for justice. With high unemployment, the miners became guerrilla freedom fighters looking to save their jobs and the mining industry. The protesters went on strike in late May and shut down the country's coal supply to protest the government's decision to reduce mine subsidies by 63 percent. Anticapitalistas.org is the Web site for Izquierda Anticapitalista, an organization that fights against "oppression, exploitation, and the domination of people and nature." The sticker depicts the profile of a man wearing a knitted watch cap and a bandana to conceal his identity. The sticker also contains a QR code, easily scanned with a smart phone application to spread the resistance movement.
