Black Friday craze sets in, but not everyone's happy

Black Friday is one of the biggest annual shopping events in the world. This unofficial holiday is celebrated on the Friday after Thanksgiving. The tradition of Black Friday and the huge sales that come with it started in the US but it soon crossed boundaries and has now become a global shopping event.

Activists blocked delivery lorries and placed banners on gates and fences with the slogans "Stop Amazon" and "Amazon: for the climate, for employment, stop expanding, stop overproduction".
