The route, through several stops in the city centre (Raval and Gòtic), addresses the construction of the city’s heritage and the way in which citizens have projected on these spaces their anti-racist struggles, disputing them as sites of memory and resistance. The objective is to observe and question the history of the city from the perspective of communities that have been marginalised and of movements of resistance and struggle, as evidenced by events such as the leading role of the gypsy community in the Jamancia revolt, the toppling of statues as a symbolic act during events such as the Spanish Civil War, their withdrawal from public space under pressure from anti-racist movements, or the choice of these spaces as a place of protest and resistance.
