1 jan 1933 ano - Casas Viejas Massacre

Descrição:

The anarchist movement encouraged oppressed workers to unite against their oppressors: the State, the landowners, and the Church. Workers who were part of the CNT marched in the streets and believed that they were starting a revolution. Repression of this resistance resulted in arrests and 24 deaths. The massacre led to national outrage and weakened the position of the revolutionary left. In the following election, socialists who supported the government began to retract support for the new republic.
