We often hear about housing struggles, but the stories of women like Maricarmen, Paquita, and Rosario are particularly heartbreaking. These women represent a generation caught between two different worlds, now fighting to keep their homes.
- At 87, Maricarmen Abascal sadly passed away after being evicted from her home in Madrid.
- Paquita López, 83, is currently caught in a long legal battle to stay in her home in Madrid’s La Latina neighborhood.
- In Seville, 75-year-old Rosario is fighting to remain in the Pumarejo area, where she has lived for over four decades.
- Another 83-year-old woman in Murcia recently faced the threat of eviction, highlighting a widespread crisis.
Their struggles are inspiring a new generation of activists to speak up for the rights of our elders.
