hi! i'm a south asian person in the uk. i'm not muslim or sikh, but it always makes me happy when people speak out about the shit that is going on.

i hope these fucking wastes of oxygen are given what they deserve. it's so disgusting that things like this still happen. i'm not scared for myself, i live in a liberal area, but i am so afraid for my fellow poc in this shithole.

i know this isn't the place for this rant, but i also wanted to say i love your blog. thank you for it <3

have a lovely day

i am so very sorry for how terrible this country is. i sincerely hope you, your family, and loved ones are well.

it is so important for white (and cis) people to show up in a meaningful way, every time. it is a privilege and it is a responsibility. the only way through is together, we absolutely have a duty to not let anyone get left behind.

#uk tag #i will be doing what i can to share resources but everything is so localised and decentralised it is tricky #i have attended a lot of protests and demonstrations and been organiser and steward for many #so i will try and share what resources and advice i can!#always protect your identity by wearing a mask! always bring a bottle of water!! and never go on your own #familiarise yourself with legal contacts #and i cannot reiterate enough: white people must protect poc! never escalate or centre yourselves but always be prepared to look out #for anyone who is vulnerable #at my last protest for palestine we formed physical chains to protect muslims as they prayed for example #and clean up jobs afterwards are also valuable ❤️ community is so valuable and we must protect and support it #i live in an extremely conservative area and it’s always on my mind right now. such a disgusting portion of our country #half my family were immigrants. i know we can do better.#one of the guys i’m seeing is bangladeshi and i feel very worried for him at the moment
