This Spanish Instagram model is facing some major backlash after filming and posting a video of herself twerking during the Barcelona Catalan independence riots where you can see fires going off in the background due to them. Sandra Kisterna posted the videos to her 12.2k Instagram followers which quickly racked up over 370k views.
She wrote in the caption “I do not want to offend people who are out to fight for their rights. This is my form of expressing my protest!”.
The protests began after the Spanish Supreme Court decided to jail nine separatist leaders for their role in a failed 2017 independence referendum earlier this week, on charges including sedition. The protests have been going on for over a week. Do you think this is an effective way to bring attention to a political cause?
