Yorgos of City Plaza
Description
I'm Bijan and I'm introducing activist faces around the globe. Join me in listening to the stories they have for me!
In this episode I talk with Yorgos Maniatis. Yorgos was a leftist political activist in Greece and was one of the founding members of City Plaza squat in the heart of Athens.
Yorgos talks about City Plaza, a self-organized community to host refugees and homeless people in Greece right after the Turkey-EU deal. He explains the politics and challenges behind occupying this hotel as well as the general political situation in Greece after the fiscal austerity measures and after Syriza.
