Portuguese in Berlin protest for housing

A demonstration in Berlin gathered around 200-250 people, mainly Portuguese, in solidarity with the housing struggle in Portugal. Participants expressed their desire to return home, citing difficulties in the housing market as a reason for emigration. Beatriz Tempéra, an emigrant, emphasized the emotional toll of being away from loved ones and the need for democratic participation in addressing housing issues. Taiga Trigo highlighted the connection between emigration and the lack of protest in Portugal. Mafalda, another participant, shared her experiences with housing in Germany and the broader implications of the housing crisis affecting various demographics. The event also coincided with a general strike in Spain, reinforcing the call for action on housing rights.
