UK: Racism after Brexit: overview and organising meeting
08 July 2016
"Below we present an overview of racially motivated attacks and other incidents of harassment that have taken place since the Brexit result, which indicate the types of attacks taking place across the UK. But of course, this account is in no way exhaustive."

MEETING in LONDON, SATURDAY 9 JULY:
Brexit, racism and xenophobia (The Monitoring Group, link):
"Brexit represents a new, unlike any other, dangerous phase for people of colour and migrants in our country.
There is a glaring absence of political leadership in this present crisis. We believe that all of us – Black, Asian and Minority communities together with progressive people – need to develop a new plan and a common strategy to tackle the present surge of rising racism and inequality. Its impact will be long- lasting."
