We did it! 🎉

We welcome the decision by Haringey to pass the motion to recognise Latin Americans as an ethnic group in monitoring and policymaking, following our deputation alongside @wardscornerplan

The vote was unanimous and our local community is celebrating a historic win!

Unlike the Census, there will be no more “Other” – no more statistical invisibility.

The @CLAUK_Org has done incredible work for their community, and this change is down to them and the Seven Sisters market traders most of all.

[Haringey Labour @HaringeyLabour]

Last night at Full Council we passed a motion recognising the Latin American community as an official ethnic group.

This is a huge moment for Latin Americans in Haringey.

Not only is the iconic Seven Sisters Market re-opening, but they can now proudly identify as Latin American

The Home Office wants to pay charities like ours millions of pounds to help them remove migrants from our communities.

With dozens of others, we refuse to be complicit in a hostile system that tears our communities apart.
