Teachers on strike change green for black in rejection of police presence: "We are educators, not criminals"

Teachers in Madrid protested against police violence during their ongoing strike, wearing black instead of their usual green. The demonstration, attended by thousands, demanded accountability for police actions during a previous protest. The strike, which began on October 14, includes six main demands such as reducing teaching hours and increasing salaries. The government has opened investigations into police conduct, while teachers emphasize their right to peaceful protest. A separate bike rally also took place to highlight the peaceful nature of their actions.
