In honor of our 7th anniversary, each day this month we will post one of our favorite antifascist actions from around the world from the past year!

Today: June 7 2020  - Black Lives Matter protesters in Bristol, UK, tear down the statue of 17th century slave trader Edward Colston, and dump it in the harbour.

Protestor John McAllister, 71, said: “It says ‘erected by the citizens of Bristol, as a memorial to one of the most virtuous and wise sons of this city’.“The man was a slave trader. He was generous to Bristol but it was off the back of slavery and it’s absolutely despicable. It’s an insult to the people of Bristol.”
