Stand up to racism and fascism

Far right and fascist organisations are gaining support across Europe including in Britain. Arguments wrongly blaming immigrants for the fall in standard of living, economic problems and austerity have provided the cutting edge of support for the far right, fascism and racism.

Across the globe the promotion of fear and hatred of Muslims and Islam is continuing, creating a climate of Islamophobia that is directly leading to violent attacks on Muslim people and mosques, and other communities such as Sikhs and Hindus who are wrongly identified by racists as Muslim. AntiSemitic attacks have also coincided with the growth in support for fascism. Black African and Caribbean communities continue to experience racism and

hatred as seen with the killing of Michael Brown in the USA. Following the success of last year’s event, another international day of action has been called coinciding with UN Anti-Racism Day. UN Anti-Racism Day commemorates the victims of the Sharpeville massacre in Apartheid South Africa. Once again many organisations have come together to reject racism, Islamophobia and anti-Semitism; to celebrate diversity and show that migrants are welcome; to demonstrate our confidence in a future free of scapegoating, racism and hatred; and to remember Nelson Mandela and cherish the ideal of a free and democratic society in which all persons live together in harmony and equal opportunities.
