Tent Protest
You have reached ACRI’s archive, updated with our activity up until 2018. For more recent posts, please visit our current website here.
What started as a few tents in the middle of a Tel Aviv boulevard expanded in the summer of 2011 into a country-wide grassroots movement for social and economic rights.
