To: Migrant Workers across Northern Ireland
Open Letter of Solidarity with Migrant Workers
We stand with migrant workers being targeted by racist violence and intimidation on our streets.
Why is this important?
Recent weeks have seen increased instances of workers across Northern Ireland being violently targeted for no other reason than the colour of their skin.
The scenes at Connswater where migrant workers were targeted by racist groups styling themselves as 'vigilantes', and restaurant owner Michael Deane whipping up fear to line his own pockets. Both are sickening and must not be tolerated.
We, the undersigned, condemn these actions in the strongest terms.
We also place on record our support, solidarity and love to the migrant workers across Northern Ireland who contribute to this place in so many ways - including putting food on our table, and caring for us through our NHS when we are sick.
We stand against racism, and send a strong message to them - that most people here will always fight hate with love.
