Saturday 26th October. If you'd never been to London before, or even the UK, and landed there on Saturday, there were two gatherings; One with a diverse group of people, from all backgrounds and ages, a fair representation of modern Britain.
The other mostly middle aged white guys, with some well documented racism and by all accounts a fair amount of public urinating from too much drinking.
The anti racist gathering was actually two events, one organised by Stand Up To Racism. The other by United Families and Friends Campaign “The families within the UFFC coalition are diligent in seeking justice for loved ones lost at the hands of the state. Our work of over two decades is centred on supporting each other in any way we can.”
The Stand Up To Racism march was a response to the far right gathering, organised by Steven Yaxley Lennon (Tommy Robinson). There are multiple videos of the far right gathering online, including open racism, islamophobia, as well as public urinating.

Image galleries are people, then home made signs, demonstrating some nice creativity and finally, organisation banners, which give an indication of how far people travelled for the day. The furthest was Scotland.
The sound recording is soundscape from the march, mostly the group in the first few pics. The horn sound is a guy blowing a large conch shell.
