A thread, for all those all those who turned out today to stand against Racism & Fascism- Thank you what a beautiful response, Thank you for making true the slogan #PeopleMakeGlasgow #BlackLivesMatter
In recent days there were those who tried to say there is a moral equivalence between far-right racist thugs & peaceful anti-racists- that was abhorrent & grotesque pandering to racism- We have a proud tradition of no platform 4fascism in Glasgow & 🏴
The message to @policescotland was simple if you don’t do your job, then as a community we cannot allow fascism to take a foothold in our city- in a civilised democracy they can never be allowed neutrality on racism or Fascism
Our numbers, our unity is our strength- the fascists, the racists, the Donald Trumps & Boris Johnsons of this world are frightened because their racist history of empires & imperialism is being rewritten to a people's history, today those in our George Sq were making history -
As a father of three young children -
I want my children to grow up in a Scotland where they can feel safe, to be valued for the people they are rather than for the colour of their skin or religion ❤️ time is not on our side
#BlackLivesMatter means we must fight racial injustice in Scotland too-
After today what happens 2moro, the day after, the week after? I urge you to support in your thousands the struggle for justice for #ShekuBayoh
Thankyou for what you have done today, Thankyou for making us proud #RefugeesWelcome Black & White Unite #PeopleMakeGlasgow ✊🏾✊🏼✊🏻✊❤️
