The San Antón neighborhood coexists with all cultures and all races since the Middle Ages.

The soccer matches of Colombia and Ecuador were held in its streets, people have married according to the Gambian or Senegalese rites and the Al-Andalus Association of Muslim migrants is based.

All the languages ??of the world, including Slavs and Bantus, are spoken in Arrixaca street and surroundings.IU-Verdes Murcia has denounced today through its representative in the Assembly of Murcia Center, Cristina Morano, the "racist speech" of the Northern District Board after its statement where it has alarmed the population and called racist protests in front of the building where a group of migrants is in quarantine.According to WHO indications, the Spanish authorities are locating migrants in supervised flats in order for them to spend a quarantine isolated.

repression against them.

This unleashed fear in the neighborhood, some neighbors tried to protest in the same social housing where the confined migrants are.For this reason, the representative of the Murcia Centro IU-Verdes Assembly has asked for the resignation of the President of the Northern District Board, Dolores Martínez Riquelme (PP) for their irresponsibility, and claims the mayor Ballesta and the councilor for decentralization Marco Antonio Fernández to take the necessary measures so that this situation does not occur again, while apologizing to the people affected by the hate speech of the Municipal Board.From the formation of the left they consider that if it is already terrible that people come to the Spanish coasts risking their lives, fleeing from wars and poverty, but it is much more terrible than that the public powers dedicate themselves to inciting the most vulnerable neighbors of the neighborhood, instilling fear and engaging in tasks that do not correspond to them, because according to Morano, border control belongs to the Interior, and dealing with migrants belongs to NGOs and police authorities."The neighborhood of San Antón has been, since medieval times, the border and crossbreeding of the city of Murcia, in it people of 3 religions and innumerable languages ??coexist without problem.

All the colors of the skin have occurred in our neighborhood, since then.

A disease cannot change a neighborhood that has gone through centuries of wars and curses.

We will get out of this together, "said Morano.
