Inside History on Instagram: "Swipe ⬅️ Amazon built a $21 million state-of-the-art 344,000-square-foot warehouse in Tijuana, Mexico amid a settlement where many houses are engineered with wood scraps, tarps and cardboard. The images, first posted by photographer Omar Martinez, opened the debate because of the clear contrast. Some people on social media called them a display of capitalism and globalization. In Tijuana, both authorities and business-sector representatives praised the new investment entering the city, while residents of the Nueva Esperanza neighborhood, located in front of the warehouse, still have doubts about what this would mean for them.
