Cases of aggression against Mexicans within their own territory by foreigners who come to gentrify tourist areas have become increasingly common. After the American who chased a construction worker while he was eating in Sinaloa and another tourist who attacked a band of musicians in Oaxaca, a new case is circulating on social media.
It involves a woman, presumably American, who chased a Mexican family from San Pancho Beach in BahÃa de Banderas, Nayarit, because they were supposedly within her territory. What happened? Here’s what we know.
The video shows a woman chasing a family of Mexicans from the municipality who were enjoying the sea, claiming that she has a concession for the site, where she is building a house on the seashore, and, she said, no one has the right to cross the area.
One of those affected by the attack reported that the woman appeared out of nowhere behind him and his companions and began kicking their drinks and verbally assaulting them until they were chased away: “Suddenly, a friend left his drink on the sand. Suddenly, an American woman and her husband appeared and kicked my friend’s drink, to which I asked her to respect it, and she responded that we didn’t have to be there because she had paid for the concession and that we had to leave.”
