Fasting in London against global corruptibility - Muhammad Haque Poetry

25-10-2005 16:35


I fast in London to uncover the lies
I fast in London to recover the ties
I fast in London so faith never dies
I fast in London so truth never dies
I fast in London for ethical life
I fast in London for an end to strife
---

I fast because I am part of
huge masses of selfless millions
across this world today
participating in action
against the aims the schemes of
those who trade in
global corruptibility

South Asian Alliance condemns violence against women

25-10-2005 14:27

This statement was distributed by the South Asian Alliance at Saturday's demonstration.

The South Asian Alliance is shocked by reports that a young 14 year Jamaican girl was allegedly gang raped by Asian youths in the Perry Bar area. This unconfirmed attack and the subsequent rumours that are going round have led to shops being closed, police being drafted into the area and increased tensions between African Caribbean and Asian Youths.

The South Asian Alliance calls on all sections of our community, both Asian and African Caribbean to come together and stop the situation from escalating and getting out of hand. We need to work together to establish the facts, at the same time we call on our youths to remain calm and exercise restraint.
