MarchAgainstRacism put 12,000 on streets in London, Glasgow & Cardiff to say #AllRefugeesWelcome & fight for a #WorldAgainstRacism
Many of the speakers across the platform of #MarchAgainstRacism here in Britain highlighted, in the wake of the outbreak of war in Ukraine and millions of refugees fleeing the war, the racism that was being faced by Black and Asian people at the borders as they were turned away. They also drew attention to the hypocrisy of many establishment figures who have talked of the shock of war in a “civilised society”, and speakers also pointed to the stark contrast of attitude and response to black and ethnic minority refugees who have fled wars in the present and past. Another key theme raised by many speakers was solidarity with Child Q in wake of the horrific racist strip searching of a school student by police and the outcry of rage in response.
