Are you pissed off about the treatment of immigrants and asylum seekers? Leeds social forum is creating a space for protesting, demonstrating, action and spreading your views.
Day of Action in defence of Refugee Rights
1-3 pm, April 24th Saturday
Briggate, outside the body shop
called by Leeds Social Forum
Come along to this day of raising awareness about the rights of refugees. We will be engaging with the public over the issue of why people come to Britain, and why they should be supported not victimised. The aim is to take apart the myths raised by tabloid headlines and show why refugees and immigrants are not to blame for rising poverty or falling welfare services in Britain. It is an open space for any groups supporting refugees, however anyone can come help out - there will be stalls, street theatre, leafletting, and refugees speaking themselves about their own experiences. Bring your own placards, whistles, megaphones, leaflets and ideas. Please come along, or get in touch to find out more.
