Demonstrations in Serbia - #monomad challenge

This is my first time posting black and white photos. I don't do them so often, but I would like to try more. Therefor, please don't mind my edits, I will need some time to figure out how to adjust photo that it looks good as black and white.

In Serbia there are protests/demonstrations were often for various reasons. But this Saturday, people blocked about 50 big roads and they were blocked for two hours. Protests are happening because government supported Rio Tinto company to make lithium mine in West Serbia, which would destroy nature. Also air in several cities across country is very bad. These are protests for air, water and land.

I took all these photos on Slavija square in Belgrade. There were also few other location blocked in Belgrade.
Protests went peacefully and it will continue if government doesn't change their decision.

People protest, governments continue. Unfortunately Lithium is an expensive and rare resource. A harsh debate.

Unfortunately that's true. We had numerous of protest with no results. But many people are on streets now, in many cities. We will try.

Yay! 🤗
