Following the success of the first Northern March Against Racism in January and the Conference in June, Tyneside Community Action for Refugees (TCAR) has decided to call a second Northern March Against Racism on 25th October - and we’d like your support. The aim of the march is to continue building links between different anti-racist movement's and to demonstrate our support for these struggles

IN TCAR WE ARE CLEAR THAT THE ATTACKS ON RIGHTS OF ASYLUM SEEKERS AND OTHER IMMAGRANTS ARE BEING USED AS A TESTING GROUND FOR NEW MEASURES OF REPRESSION, FROM ELETRONIC TAGGING, TO THE INCREASED USSAGE OF THE STOP AND SEARCH TO ID CARDS AND EVEN ERROSION OF WORKERS RIGHTS

ATTACKS ON ASYLUM SEEKERS CAN NOT BE DISENTANGLED FROM EUORPE'S INCREASINGLY RESTRICTIVE IMMAGRATION LAWS NOR FROM BRITIAN'S ROLE OVERSEA'S.

IS IT NOT RACIST TO CLAIM THAT IRIQI CIVILLIANS ARE SAFE WHEN BRITISH WORKERS ARE NOT?

WHAT, APART FROM RACISM , MEANS THAT BRITISH COMPANIES FEEL THHAT IS ACCEPTIBLE TO PLUNDER MINERALS FROM DRC CONGO AND AMONGEST OTHER COUNTIERS MAKEING DEALS WITH WARLORDS WHILE THE BRITISG GUVERMANT SUPPORT DICTATORSHIP'S AND SENDS VICTIMS OF RAPE AND TORTURE BACK TO DIE IN PEISON CAMPS

AT THE TIME OF ECONOMIC CRISIS ITS EVEN MORE IMPORTANT FOR ALL PROGRESSIVE ORGANSITION AND INDIVIDUALS TO STAND FIMLY AGAINST RACISM RACISM IS AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE USED TO DIVIDE ANY WORKING CLASS STRUGGLE AGAIMNST DETERIORTATING LIVING CONDITIONS AMD WHERE POSSIVLE TO DIRVERT THESE STRUGGLES EVEN FROM THE BEGINNINGS

TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER
