During the 1970s, urban neighborhoods in London and other major cities in the UK faced significant challenges such as a housing crisis, high youth unemployment rates, and decaying infrastructure. [women’s library]
Squatters took over vacant or neglected properties, including Victorian buildings slated for demolition, and transformed them into communal living spaces and centers of political and social activism.
An extensive collection of women-only squats existed in London neighborhoods including Hackney, Islington, Camden, Southwark, Westminster, Kensington, Brixton, and others [women’s library] Women-only squats were centers for the feminist women's movement and many members identified as lesbians. [Wall 2017). Women living in these squats shared domestic labor including cooking and childcare and learned basic building skills like plumbing and repairing roofs of the buildings they squatted [Wall 2017).

Interactional vandalism is a concept in sociology that describes a situation where the the implied rules of civil conversation are not adhered to, specifically when a person of lower social status violates those rules when interacting with a person of higher social status. The term was coined in by sociologists Mitchell Duneier and Harvey Molotch in their study of interactions on the streets of New York City between black men who were panhandlers or street venders, and middle-class white women who were passing by. The study showed that women were unlikely to respond to the men's comments or questions; when the men persisted despite the women's unwillingness to engage in conversation, they violated the rules of social conduct and committed interactional vandalism.

Dolores Cacuango -
Activism[edit]
In 1930, Cacuango was among the leaders of the historic workers' strike at the Pesillo hacienda in Cayambe.
CITATION:http://www.blackwellreference.com/public/tocnode?id=g9781405184649_yr2012_chunk_g9781405184649501
The strike was a milestone for indigenous and peasant rights, CITE: 9780822381457
and was later the subject of Jorge Icaza's novel El Huasipungo (1934). CITE 9781443869119
During the May 1944 Revolution in Ecuador, Cacuango personally led an assault on a government military base. Along with fellow activist Tránsito Amaguaña, she founded the Indigenous Federation of Ecuador (FEI), one of the first primary organisations to position, demand and fight for indigenous rights. CITATION
While Cacuango never received a formal education, she helped establish the first bilingual Indian schools. Aware of the terrible conditions that the children of indigenous peoples suffered in the schools, she ultimately founded bilingual schools, taught in both Spanish and Quechua, the indigenous language. She established these schools in the Cayambe zone in 1945. Cacuango proposed that these schools teach the pupils to read in both languages. Her schools functioned for 18 years, but the military junta closed them in 1963, considering them as communist focos.
