T
he horrific death of Makram
Ali and injuries to others near
Finsbury Park Mosque in June
together with acid attacks and
increased harassment of Muslim
women all show a disturbing rise in
Islamophobia in Britain.
The government’s Prevent
programme has further fuelled this
racism – giving the green light to
the police and authorities to target
Muslims.
In addition, the Tories continue to
scapegoat migrants and sow division.
Theresa May is cynically using three
million EU nationals as a bargaining
chip in Brexit negotiations.

All welcome
repression and poverty continue to
be left to drown in the Mediterranean
or be locked up in detention centres.
The increase in racism from the
top of society has an impact at every
level.
It’s nearly 20 years since the
Macpherson report concluded
that the Metropolitan Police were
“institutionally racist”.
Yet black people are still 6.5
times more likely to be stopped and
searched than white people in Britain.
The cops still think they can get away
with killing black people.
Come to this meeting to discuss
where we should go next in the fight
against racism.
