Argentina: Activists plan to rally and march in central Buenos Aires from 17:00 Nov. 8 to denounce racism
Anti-racism activists plan to march and demonstrate in Buenos Aires, Argentina, from 17:00 Nov. 8. Tight security, disruptions likely.
Activists affiliated with the Argentine Workers' Central Union (Central de Trabajadores y Trabajadoras de la Argentina, CTA) plan to hold a rally and march in central Buenos Aires Nov. 8 to denounce racism. Organizers have called for participants to gather at Plaza del Mayo at 17:00 before marching on Congress from 18:00. Hundreds of people could participate in the action.
Heightened security and localized business and transport disruptions are likely the evening of Nov. 8. Isolated clashes between police and activists cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the protest as a standard precaution. Plan for localized transport and business disruptions and seek alternative routes to circumvent the gathering sites and march route. Heed official directives.
