Resisting the rise of racism and fascism: Stand Up To Racism conference

Stand Up To Racism campaigns against racism and the far right. We have been organsing mass campaigning against fascist Tommy Robinson and far right UKIP's in the EU election - saying "Keep  Racism out of the elections". We challenge Islamophobia, institutional racism, the scapegoating of immigrants for austerity and the far right whenever they try and organise. Stand Up To Racism organises the annual march against racism coinciding with UN Anti-Racism Day in March in conjunction with the TUC.

The venue will be sent to those who registerThe government are putting racism and scapegoating refugees at the centre their strategy – designed to distract from a cost of living crisis that they created.Sunak’s ‘stop the boats’ and Braverman’s ‘invasion’ rhetoric has led to a resurgence of racist, far right and fascist mobilisations - mainly targeting refugees.The government’s ‘anti-woke’ agenda is also being used by the far right to mobilise.The Illegal Migration Act effectively ends the right to asylum, for those crossing the Channel there are no safe routes.Braverman’s Rwanda Plan showed just how far government will go – with refugees potentially facing deportation to an unsafe destination.The Nationality and Borders Act and the Windrush scandal exemplify how the hostile environment for refugees leads to racism against established migrants. Afro-Caribbean, African, Asian, Gypsy, Roma, Traveller and other communities have all been targeted.Meanwhile, despite the huge international Black Lives Matter movement, the government denies the existence of institutional racism, from the police and justice system, to health, education and housing.But cases like the strip searching of Child Q &amp; others, the shooting of Chris Kaba and the disproportionate impact of Covid on BAME communities exposed the real picture.Since the pandemic there has also been a rise of racism towards East and South East Asian communities and Islamophobia continues to blight Muslim communities.Internationally we see the growth of the far right – alongside racism, Islamophobia and antisemitism.But the scale of support for refugees and opposition to scapegoating prove that anti racists are the majority in Britain.Join our conference to discuss how we mobilise that majority and oppose racism from government and a resurgent far right.
