OXFORD PROTEST

END THE GENOCIDE!

END APARTHEID!

PROTEST IS NOT TERRORISM!

DIVEST FROM ISRAEL!

FREE PALESTINE!

Assemble 12:30PM

Manzil Way green, East Oxford, OX4 1YH

The Israeli genocide of Palestinians has created the most sustained wave of local and national protests in British history.  It is a movement that has finally forced the government to take limited action against Israel - after 3 years of support for Israel's atrocities in Gaza and the West bank.

It is also a movement that is facing ongoing attempts to smear it as antisemitic and in support of terrorism, including the arrest of people for holding signs supporting Palestine Action, a media lambasting of the Greens for passing a motion that Zionism is racism, plus increasing targeting by the far right.

We need to keep the pressure against the ongoing genocide and apartheid and defend the right to protest.

We stand together in solidarity and call on Oxford University, Oxford NHS Trust, Oxford Council and all other institutions to fully divest from Israel.  

UNITE AGAINST RACIST DIVISION

OXFORD SAYS NO TO HATE  - FASCISTS NOT WELCOME

OPPOSE THE ‘STOP THE BOATS’ HATE MARCH

Assemble 1:30PM  Saturday 14th November, Carfax Tower

Oxfordshire Patriots have announced a “stop the boats” hate march in Oxford town centre.

They are part of a movement of ‘patriot’ groups who have been trying to whip up racist mobs on our streets.

Some of the recent ‘patriot’ protests have see violence against emergency workers, including the RNLI, that have lead to arrests (Oxfordshire patriots called, then cancelled, a protest at a local fundraiser for the RNLI!)

They support Britain’s #1 fascist, Tommy Robinson, and his hench-man Danny Tommo, leader of the balaclava wearing, paramilitary inspired, Patriot Platform.

Last year Oxfordshire Patriots held racist protests outside an Oxford hotel housing people awaiting outcomes of asylum applications.

The Patriots campaign collapsed in the face of larger public opposition to their hate.

Now they want to re-launch their racist hate campaign on Oxford’s streets bouyed up by the surge in protests by other far right  ‘patriot’ groups.

Their recent actions have been small, but they want to normalise their racist presence on our streets, and we cannot allow this to become normal.

They are also trying to build support for Raise the Colours leader Ryan Bridge who is on trial in Oxford for offences when he and Oxfordshire Patriots put up flags as part of a campaign of racist intimidation. Bridge is charged with multiple counts of abusive and threatening behaviour including one count of racially aggravated violence and common assault. 

Join us to drown out the Oxfordshire Patriots’ message of hate on 14th Nov.  

FAR RIGHT OFF CAMPUS

WHITE SUPREMACIST 

NATHAN COFNAS

NOT WELCOME IN OXFORD

Assemble 5PM Oriel Square,  OX1 4EW  

Reform UK claims that the recent revelations of extreme racism in its ranks are just a few bad apples.  Yet the Oxford University Reform UK society (OURS) has invited white supremacist Nathan Cofnas to speak on Nov 17th.

Cofnas came to prominence for his role in a racist witch-hunt of Professor Jason Arday that lead to Jason's death after a sustained campaign, of abuse, harassment and misinformation.

Cofnas helped to propel allegations against Professor Arday into the national press, then racialised the attack, asking whether Cambridge was saying "the only way to have black professors is to abandon all standards".

Cofnas is a self described "race realist" - a proponent of "scientific racism" - who has called for a "heredetarian revolution" and defended research for genetic explanations for racial differences in intelligence. 

He has argued that, under a true "meritocracy", Black professors at Harvard would fall to almost zero, while black people "would disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment.”

Cofnas was sacked from Cambridge university after they found that a blog post amounted to a "rejection of diversity, equity, and inclusion".

Join the Stand Up To Racism protest against the hosting of white supremacist Cofnas on campus.

Sign and share the Stand Up To Racism open letter to support the protest and say white supremacist Cofnas is not welcome on campus https://oxfordstanduptoracism.org.uk/nocofnas
