Stop Racism – National Demonstration
With the scale of the Sunak government’s racist offensive, attacks on refugee and migrant rights, and how this is fuelling the growth of the far right, 2024’s demonstrations for the UN Anti Racism Day are of vital importance. This year’s events will take place on Saturday 16th March, 12.00 noon – 4.00pm in London.
A mass campaign by a broad coalition of forces drawing in anti-racists everywhere, and involving trade unions, campaigns, organisations, activists, politicians and cultural figures, on the streets, in workplaces, campuses, schools and communities, is going to be critical in the fight to ensure that the politics of racism, division and hate are not allowed to gain a foothold here in Britain and if we are to stop the rise of the new far right.
In a year where Trump in the USA and the far right in Europe and internationally are poised to make electoral gains, racism is going to be at the centre of many mainstream parties’ attempts to hold onto or gain power in the year to come, creating a toxic atmosphere of hate and division for the far right and fascists to seize upon.
We must say loud and clear on the streets, all over the world #StopTheHate #UnityNotDivision #StopRacism and we must actively fight for a #WorldAgainstRacism #NoRacismNoFascism
