Today the blog “All to Human"..is one year old.


We are proud to stand up to the racist bullies that are seeking to put the flame of tolerance and respect. Readership over the last year has just touched 78,000. I too have felt this pressure and it is quite clear that on a number of Facebook groups attempts are being made to silence both myself and the ideas this blog supports. The post Brexit events have poisoned our culture and given confidence to the hard right to speak out. But I will not be silenced and the blog will continue campaigning over the years ahead We support the stand made by those like fatimaChannel 4 News newsreader Fatima Manji was understandably furious when the broadcast regulator ‘Ipso’ saw no grounds to censor The Sun columnist Kelvin McKenzie for questioning whether it was appropriate “for her to be on camera when there had been yet another shocking slaughter [the terrorist attack in Nice] by a Muslim?”Speaking to the BBC, Fatima said Ipso had given a “green light for newspapers to attack minorities and Muslims in particular.” She described it as “effectively open season” on Muslims.No wonder Fatima was angry.
HOPE not hate is calling on its supporters to stand with Fatima Manji and Gary Lineker, who has also been targeted by The Sun for having the audacity to speak out in support of refugees. We are designing giant cards that we will deliver to Channel 4 and the BBC on WednesGary Lineker to be bullied into silence then they, and others, will think twice about speaking out again. Fatima has already reported how people rang into radio shows in support of Mr MacKenzie and called for her to be lynched. This is deplorable.It is vital we show them our support and solidarity.
