We have received information from Anti Racist Action and other groups that a white pride/neo-nazi group is planning a rally in the Lower Mainland on March 21st, 2010. March 21st is traditionally the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Several different groups and communities have called for a gathering to let them know they are not welcome and to celebrate our diversity to oppose their hatred and bigotry. The information about the white pride rally previously on facebook and websites, appears to no longer be publicly available and thus any current information cannot be confirmed either way. Nonetheless, pull em up now before they take root!
March 21 at 11 am. Assemble at Braid Skytrain Station in New Westminster.
White anti racists/anti fascists especially encouraged to attend. People of colour and Indigenous peoples in particular who would like to attend as a group, No One Is Illegal will likely have a contingent. Email us at noii-van@resist.ca.
