Argentina: Thousands of Teachers & Students Strike Against Austerity Measures
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Argentina, thousands of teachers and students walked out of classes
Thursday to protest Argentine President Mauricio Macri's crippling
austerity policies. This is one of the teachers, Sergio Stape.

Sergio Stape: "A government that is taking away the opportunity of not
just education but also health, allocating a large part of the budget to
security-we see this as a step back."
