Today marks Holocasut Memorial Day - a day to remember the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust, the millions more people murdered through the Nazi persecution of other groups, and the victims of genocide in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia, Darfur, and against Yazidi communities.
Dubbed a “safe space” by organisers, the group shared their feelings of “exhaustion”, “pain” and “suffering”, often through tears, but were also keen to express their “hope” and “gratitude” which they felt had come from similar acts of unity. @aol

One year since the Hamas attacks in Israel & the war in Gaza, we remember all innocent lives lost.
Today, we stand together, across faiths & communities, to reject hate. Antisemitism & anti-Muslim hate have no place here.
Let’s build bridges, not walls.

Jewish, Muslim, & Christian leaders come together to reject hate.
"In these times, we must reject those who divide us. Anti-Jewish & anti-Muslim hate have no place in the UK today. We stand against prejudice."

“We’re all in this together and we must not forget that”.
Conflict overseas doesn’t have to lead to hatred here. Listen to Hamze Awawde and Magen Inon as they discuss why reaching across the divide is imperative.

The Faizan-e-Islam Mosque in Walthamstow has invited the local community to come and learn about Islam and life at the Mosque.
The Together Coalition is supporting similar events across the UK to build unity and support local Muslims during these challenging times.
In times of grief, some spread hate, but our community stands united. Today, following the horrific attack in #Southport and a night of far-right violence in response, locals joined together to clean up their streets, in solidarity.
From all of us, Chag Pesach Sameach to Jewish communities all around the UK.
Let us remember to be kind, joyous and courageous.
