CA L’ESPINA EVICTION CALLOUT
Five years and ten months have passed since Ca l’Espina was squatted, a building located at Carrer d'Astúries 12, in the heart of Vila de Gràcia, Barcelona. A gentrified neighborhood we no longer recognize sold out to tourism and speculation.
With much anger and sadness, we have received the eviction date: Thursday, October 2nd, 2025. The property owner, Bojous S.L., along with Mossos d’Esquadra, will once again militarize the neighborhood in an attempt to kick us out of our home.
Throughout these years, we have challenged the logic imposed by capital, establishing mutual aid as both an essential and everyday practice. It has been a space where we’ve grown both individually and collectively, where we’ve strengthened bonds that enable us to fight back and challenge the established order. It has been — and still is — the place where we continue to gather strength to resist the eviction.
Aware of the diversity of lived experiences, of diverse bodies and abilities, and with the aim of continuing to question and destroy systems of domination, we call for solidarity in all its forms.
Firm in our commitment to the anarchist struggle and knowing that actions have consequences, we understand that Ca l’Espina is much more than just a building, and that the collective extends far beyond those who live within its walls. They have chosen to come for us, and we will respond. We will not let this eviction go unpunished, and we will help grow our collective imagination through direct action.
We refuse to accept the loss of this neighborhood — and, for this reason, we refuse to leave our home.
