What’s the need for a UK #BlackLivesMatter movement? There isn’t any racism, institutional bias or oppression in the UK? Just bandwagonning? An excuse to make noise and go outdoors?

A thread.

#BlackLivesMatterUK
1. 1993 Stephen Lawrence (18) killed in an unprovoked racist attack. A case riddled with police failings, laziness, racism & corruption, that took 18 years 2 bring only 2/5 murderers 2 (barely) justice. The criminal justice system remains bias, racist & dangerous for black people
(I hate the term BAME but for word count purposes I’ll use it here.

BP = black people
WP = white people)
