🪔 Remembering Black July 42 years on
Today marks 42 years since the horrors of the anti-Tamil pogrom of 1983, when thousands of Tamils were killed by Sinhala mobs backed by the then UNP government and state forces.
Armed with electoral rolls, Sinhala mobs targeted Tamil homes and businesses, looting and ransacking property. Driven from their homes, particularly in Colombo, over 3000 Tamils were massacred, whilst thousands more were effectively deported by the state to the North-East.
Eye witness reports described mobs chasing Tamils down the street with knives and setting them alight alive. Hundreds of women were raped. Tamil political prisoners locked up in Welikada jail, deep within the island's south, were also targeted as prison guards allowed Sinhala inmates to slaughter them.

How ignorant and shameless do you have to be to endorse a genocidal regime? Not everyone is a MGR or Vijayakanth in Tamil Cinema some, like Ravi, are just opportunists willing to sell anything for money. Shame on you man!.@iam_RaviMohan
