Description |
Picket outside the Manchester Magistrates Court, Crown Square on the second day of Ahmed Ullah's murderer's court case. An Asian youth speaks about attacks on youngsters and how the problem is ignored. There are Asian women on the picket who shout slogans. Several white youth speak about their participation and the need for white young people to be educated. A white mother speaks about why she is there and Kabir Sheikh, an Asian activist, speaks about the importance of the picket to demonstrate that racist attacks will not be taken without opposition. He speaks about the composition of the court - the all-white jury and no investigation of the racist basis of the murder. He also speaks about Manchester Education Dept and the City Council's attempt to supress the racist nature of the attack. |
