Unicorn Riot in Greece – 2024

In 2024, UR continued its reporting on anti-Roma racism, the Pylos shipwreck, and police racism toward refugees. We closed out our exclusive series on the gentrification in Greece with a detailed timeline of events in Exarcheia and a short film, the Battle Over Exarcheia Square. Unicorn Riot published an exclusive mini-documentary on the 50th Anniversary of the deadly Polytechnic Uprising as well as pieces on students starting an encampment for Gaza, a look-back at the 2004 Olympics and the state targeting Rouvikonas.
