Beatriz Carrillo, the Director General for Equal Treatment, Non-Discrimination, and Anti-Racism at the Spanish Ministry of Equality, has called for the renaming of a street in Madrid currently named after the Marqués de la Ensenada. The proposal is based on the historical actions of the figure, whom Carrillo accuses of attempting to exterminate the Romani people.

The initiative highlights ongoing efforts to address historical figures associated with past human rights abuses. By advocating for the removal of the name from public signage, the Ministry of Equality seeks to align street nomenclature with contemporary standards regarding anti-racism and historical memory.
