Yes, racism and anti-immigrant sentiment is fuelled by the media and governments who create hostile environments. And some people (not just working-class people) seem more susceptible to right-wing conspiracy theories and lacking in critical thinking skills. But white

Pubgoers embrace Muslims defending their community in Accrington. This is the way forward. Unity. The racist thugs are in the minority.

Liverpool, Walthamstow, Oxford, Bristol - beautiful scenes from up and down the country of communities coming together in the face of hatred this evening. THIS is who we are, THIS is what we should be striving for.

This 👇🏽 from Liverpool to Newcastle to London. This is how you defeat #racism #Fascism. #Britain at its best. My heartfelt thanks to everyone who turned up and who stood as allies in myriad ways. ❤️❤️‍🩹

It’s been a massive #FarRightFail. I hope it signals the end of wide-scale racist riots BUT it doesn’t mean the thugs are defeated. Some communities are more terrified than ever, yobs are more emboldened than ever, dis-influencers & Reform MPs have big platforms. So stay united!

We @sbsisters went to Brentford, close to Southall, to show solidarity & to face down the racists. 300 other people had the same idea. Cacophony of cars hooting in support was heartwarming. Not a fascist in sight. Thanks to Stand Up To Racism for organising

Novara Media spoke to residents of Barnsley who called out rioters scapegoating immigrants: “Your problems are from the top-down people making us feel small because we’re working class. But I'm proud to be working class, and I'm proud to be anti-racist working class as well."

Oh my! #Pakistan 🇵🇰 got Gold🥇. Arshad Nadeem becomes the country's first gold medallist in an event other than field hockey. My dad would have been dancing if he had seen this.

'We've not received any justice.' The #KingsCross3 speak to Channel 4 News about their experience of institutional racism and their concern about the Crown Prosecution Service's inability to differentiate between victims and perpetrators in certain contexts due to it. youtu.be/2zfCTdBElVk?si…

A collective statement from the women's sector in response to the Southport murders and ensuing racist violence - over 100 orgs signed up in 3 days, a great signal of solidarity and unity. We're calling for Black and minoritised women's voices to be heard! wrc.org.uk/Blog/sector-co…

False info spread in real time. Research before you retweet. Hindutva, Islamist and white nationalist far right all pose a threat to minorities and women. Be careful not to amplify their voices unwittingly. For #Bangladesh check out Rumor Scanner, David Bergman and Netra News
