Once again Belfast turned out in huge numbers to stand in solidarity with EVERYONE who calls this city home, to celebrate diversity and to show racists and the far-right that they are the minority.

As Greens we proudly stood in solidarity in the grand coalition of so many people from trade unions, other political parties, community groups, activist groups, residents organisations, charities and individuals.

Dumfries stands strong against racism as we opposed an anti-refugee protest today #dumfries #scotland #antiracism

If you're in Dublin today and have no other commitments you might consider joining this important counter protest against the far right.

By way of @rogueclassicist and Chuck Jones' Ancient World Online (AWOL) blog, I see that this open-access ebook (available also in print) is now available:

Sarah Derbew, Daniel Orrells, and Phiroze Vasunia, eds. Classics and Race: A Historical Reader. London: UCL Press, 2025. https://doi.org/10.14324/111.9781800088139.

"... provides scholars and students with an exploratory intellectual history of the complex relationships between Classics and racist/anti-racist thought-systems. It collects together a series of readings of historical primary sources from the late medieval period until the mid-twentieth century, bringing to light how the classical tradition and post-ancient constructions of race have informed each other. Each reading is accompanied by an essay, written by a leading specialist who offers a discussion of the primary source..."

Is anybody thinking of going on this?

Larissa Crawford is using the trauma she has faced as a Métis and Jamaican Indigenous woman to create a more inclusive future.

After being hospitalised due to workplace discrimination, Larissa took matters into her own hands and founded Future Ancestors Services — a game-changing social enterprise connecting diverse entrepreneurs with clients seeking expertise in community impact, sustainability, and Indigenisation.

At the heart of her organisation, is recognising that lived experiences are not just something to overcome, but a powerful qualification that can be used to shape decision-making conversations and create a fairer and more inclusive future for all.

I spent my Easter afternoon transcribing my penciled notes from Elizabeth Jemison's, "Christian Citizens : Reading the Bible in Black and White in Postemancipation South." The book makes clear the through line from Reconstruction's white Southern Christianity choosing violent racism over equality to today's type of white Christian who's again choosing violent racism, which is incredibly helpful to know.
