Incredible to see such a turnout of community solidarity on Leith Walk today, with representation from unions, local groups and campaigners such as Zionism- Free Leith, Resisting Transphobia Edinburgh and Living Rent.
The demonstration was organised following the targeted violent attacks against our Muslim community that took place this Friday night across Edinburgh and Leith Walk.
This blatant display of racism is enraging and heartbreaking.
As part of the demonstration today, local residents made a patchwork banner which is now installed in our shop window. We hope its messages will be a reminder of solidarity to those who walk past.
Settlement Projects is a space where everybody is welcome, and where racism and discrimination will never be tolerated.
