Stand Up to Racism and Fascism - March 22nd

In recent years we have seen the far right, in particular fascist groups such as the BNP and the EDL, attempt to present themselves as acceptable political parties.

We have also seen racism become increasingly acceptable in both the media and mainstream parties, with constant presentation of immigrants as a threat, fear-mongering about Roma people and of course Islamophobia.

Yesterday in London thousands of people joined together to oppose racism and fascism as part of a day of action called by Unite Against Fascism and the TUC.

Comrades from Derby were out and about, and played an important role in organising the coach that took a big group of us down to London - as you can see, it was a great celebration of those of us who refuse to let the ruling class tell us that our fellow human beings are to be mistrusted and feared!
