An anti-racist, pro-justice and black-led movement established in Wales in 2020.

[Tom Fowler @tombfowler]

The "insufficient knowledge" of attending police officers when it came to Acute Behavioural Disturbance, along with the period of restraint are the significant factors in what changed Mouayed Bashir's recreational cocaine use to lead to a fatal result #J4MB

@BLMGwent @GPNewport @GPNewport are you going to comment on this?

[ogun @ogun_official]

this is what's happening right on our doorstep in Newport, absolutely abhorrent behaviour

[BLM Gwent @BLMGwent]

TRIGGER WARNING

2 - This officer needs to be suspended immediately without pay pending a formal investigation into his actions. Why do police think that rules and regulations don't apply to them? @GPNewport when are you going to start holding officers accountable?

[BLM Gwent @BLMGwent]

TRIGGER WARNING

1 - We are absolutely appalled by this video showing a @GPNewport officer brutalising this man, leaving him with bruises and a broken hand. @GPNewport have shown, on several occasions, their disregard for marginalised communities in Newport

[BLM Gwent @BLMGwent]

we can't stop fighting for Mouayed's justice✊🏿

Creating banners for their peaceful march, after being inspired by @BLMGwent. The children discussed how to be anti racist and make positive actions to inspire change. One artist is creating a BLM song inspired by the day. @Arts_Wales_ @Monnow_Primary
