Migrant homes are being set on fire and people are having to be evacuated into emergency accommodation. With the youngest being a 2 month old baby. It doesn’t stop there either, their cars are being set ablaze and migrant owned businesses are being destroyed.

Schools are sending pupils back home because they’re afraid of more violence breaking out.

It’s just…I don’t even have words for it you know. I do hope the victim is able to heal and get justice for what happened to them.

But it doesn’t warrant this.

Why is it when one white person does something wrong it’s only the individual who gets punished. But if the perpetrator happens to be of the global majority then we’re all punished for it.

It’s not all men but somehow it’s all Black people, all immigrants, all Asians etc.

People are being burned out of their homes and for what? No one whose participating in this violence is doing it cause they care about the victim.

They’re just using a tragedy as fuel for their racist bullshit. It fits their narrative so they’re going to go to town and do what they have always wanted to do.

But now suddenly feel they have a pass for.

If you’re BAME in Belfast I hope things will be okay for you. I hope all the violence dies down and you can rebuild what you’ve lost. God I can’t even say stay indoors anymore because that’s not even safe anymore.
