ALL OF THIS!

Boris Johnson made racist remarks about Muslim Women saying they look like "letter boxes" and "bank robbers"

Tanmanjeet Singh a Sikh man wasn't having it

HE IS A HERO. KNOW HIS NAME!
Our response to hate should always be that it is wrong no matter if it directed towards us or not. Hate against anyone, anywhere, at anytime is ALWAYS WRONG.

You don't have to be a muslim to stand up against the hate we face.

WE NEED MORE OF THIS
This is what solidarity looks like ❤️

Not only is he a man standing up for people of a different faith but he is a man standing up for WOMEN.

HE IS A HERO. His name is TANMANJEET SINGH.

(Also if you don't know a muslim or have a friend that is, you do now. follow)
Reminds me of this.

He said "I didn't answer the question because my response to Islamophobia has never been 'I'm not Muslim.' It has always been and will be that 'hate is wrong."❤😭

(Again if you don't know a Muslim or have a friend that is a Muslim, you do now. Follow me)

"We don't need that kind of racism in Canada. Islamophobia is wrong"

This non-Muslim Sikh man defended himself like he was one.

Not once did he tell this racist White Man that he is not Muslim. That he is Sikh.

HE IS A HERO

HIS NAME GURRATAN SINGH. KNOW HIS NAME!
He learned from his brother

"Many people have commented that I could have just said I'm not Muslim. In fact, many have clarified that I'm actually Sikh. While I'm proud of who I am, I purposely didn't go down that road because it suggests their hate would be ok if I was Muslim."
He says "I didn't answer the question because my response to Islamophobia has never been 'I'm not Muslim.' It has always been and will be that 'hate is wrong." ❤️

This ALL OF THIS!

Young queen speaking truth to power

RETWEET if you agree
This little girl is right. She is a HERO.

Racism

Xenophobia

Islamophobia

Misogyny

Homophobia

Inhumane immigration policies

Everything about trump is amoral and a disgrace to the world!

(Also if you don't know a Muslim or have a friend that is, you do now. Follow)
There is a lesson in this from this young little girl and that is

If you see Xenophobia CALL IT OUT
If you see Islamophobia CALL IT OUT
If you see Racism CALL IT OUT
If you see Misogyny CALL IT OUT
If you see Homophobia CALL IT OUT

And call it what is "A disgrace to the world"

This White man killed 2 women and a child!

Not complying & resisting arrest

ARRESTED ALIVE AND UNHARMED

There is a list of innocent, unarmed black men and BLACK CHILDREN (Tamir Rice) 💔 that didn't kill anyone executed by police

THIS IS WHY WE KNEEL

Tamir Rice was a 12 year-old black child outside w/ a toy gun in an OPEN CARRY STATE of Ohio. It took police 3 seconds to shoot and kill him. They thought he was a black man w/ a gun.

WHY WE KNEEL!

(Also if you don't know a Muslim or have a friend that is, you do now. Follow)
This is White Privilege

If he was black, Latino, or Muslim without a doubt he would have been shot.

Wish the police and even the media would look at us (people of color) and treat us (people of color) like they do white terrorists, mass shooters, and killers.

Let’s talk about Boris

One of most disreputable, toxic, selfish politicians I’ve ever met. As Tories choose between British Trump & ex-Health Sec who’s mission was to destroy health service, let's remember why #Johnson is #UnfitForOffice

2018: Letterboxes
Wrote that women wearing niqab looked like “letterboxes” & “bank robbers”; triggering attacks on our Muslim community, “letterbox” graffitied on homes, and giving racists new language in hate speech

2008: “Blacks have lower IQs”
As editor of the Spectator he was responsible for - and clearly condoned - this racist drawl. He and his racist worldview has no place in Parliament, let alone @10DowningStreet

Of the various journalists who back the Corbyn project, @paulmasonnews is much the most interesting and substantial. But I was struck by two passages in his recent @NewStatesman piece, which speak to some of the concerns many of us feel about Labour's new direction. 1/12
First up: this is what Mason had to say about “Wreathgate”, which “Corbyn and his team have handled .. with aplomb”. 2/12
We can debate the rights & wrongs of "Wreathgate", but since when did a progressive party measure morality by its "cut-through" in the polls? It's hardly news that picking fights with minorities can be popular – so let's take Boris Johnson as an example. 3/12

‘Preposterous’

adjective,
contrary to reason or common sense; utterly absurd or ridiculous.

Is it contrary to reason that Boris Johnson is Islamophobic? /thread
1/ Boris Johnson has form- his history of crass racist remarks is startling.
Calling commonwealth members “flag-waving piccaninnies”

2/ More recently reciting colonial Kipling poems directly TO his hosts in Myanmar.

Telling that it's Nadine Dorries who comes out to defend Boris Johnson
Dorries recently told a British Muslim journalist to "appreciate just a little the country and the people you have chosen... benefit from". independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
Dorries also told Sadiq Khan, a Muslim politician, to "act on sex abusing grooming gangs" in Rotherham. Sadiq is the Mayor of London.
