An interesting article well worth a read. We must remain alert to those who seek to obfuscate our history to serve their own ends and to keep their privilege. While we have people like Corinne Fowler we stand a chance. We must support them.

Just saw the 1st ep of this great new series about Asian struggles against racism & the far-right in the UK. Such an important history that we don’t talk about enough! For anyone keen to learn more, I highly recommend Preeti Dhillon’s book on the topic: dialoguebooks.co.uk/titles/preeti-…
