A local lady from Epping told the BBC that they're not all anti asylum-seekers, and they lived alongside them with no trouble in Epping for 5 years. She says that she feels more scared with the violent protesters on their streets.

Stephen Lawrence day. I will never forget the racist murder of Stephen or how his family were treated by police. My brother was turning 13 that year and I started to fear for him as he got older. Reality of racism.
Strength to spirit Stephen & love to the Lawrence family ❤️

Absolutely horrendous for this extraordinarily brave young man. Anyone struggling to see the harm racism implants as shown here - has air between their ears, faeces in their eyes darkness in their heart and complete emptiness written on their soul

They like to pretend racism in football is over, but look at his reaction. Racism hurts a d that it always made worse when people ignore or deny it. This young man is brave and I applaud him ✊🏽✊🏽👏🏽🙏🏽

You’d be surprised how many places in the UK are *quietly* getting rid of the EDI leadership and reallocating that staff and resource. Keep your eyes on this because it’s going to affect governance and strategy in unexpectedly challenging ways.

A Black hijabi woman speaking about football with knowledge and passion, gets racist abuse, threats of violence and calls for deportation.
Great interview and insight @MinaFootball supporting you 💯

Paul Stephenson, the civil rights campaigner who led the Bristol bus boycott has died aged 87. He organised a boycott of the Bristol Omnibus Company which ended its policy of banning ethnic minorities from working on buses. RIP 🙏🏾

Why is the media so quiet?

Happy Black (British) History Month.

Today, I am paying tribute to Claudia Jones who was born in Trinidad & founded the Notting Hill Carnival. She was a pioneering journalist & political activist who went on to launch the West Indian Gazette newspaper.

An inspiring woman. 🙌🏾
