Thousands take to streets in Canary Islands to protest overtourism

Summary by France24
Tens of thousands of demonstrators hit the streets across Spain's Canary Islands to demand changes to the model of mass tourism they say is overwhelming the Atlantic archipelago. "We Canarians are fed up with being second and third class citizens, we are fed up with overcrowding, with institutional mistreatment, with low salaries, with our heritage being destroyed," says Nieves Rodrigues Rivera, a teacher and writer.
