This May 1st, 45,000 people marched in the streets of Santiago in memory of the
1886 Haymarket Massacre in Chicago. During the march, there were diverse political
movements including anarchists. The march ended in the Plaza Los Héroes. <snip>
After the march, many members of the antiauthoritarian movement met in a local
park for a festival and community event. There many collectives present including
an anarchist university, anarchist publications, and anti-military recruitment
organizations. The event also included entertainment and music from the local
community. The overall spirit was positive for the struggle and formation of a
new world. At one particularly tense moment, police arrived at the event with
armored cars and riot gear. After some time, the majority of the police left,
and those who remained were witnesses of the struggle for a more just world.
