Stand Against Hate

The Shahid Minar, or International Mother Language Monument, honours the 1952 Bangla language movement and, since 2000, stands as a symbol of cultural and linguistic diversity globally. Over the past year it has been the target of hateful vandalism, which is an attack on the inclusion and community values the monument represents.

Join us to speak out against hate and strengthen community solidarity!

There will be speakers, children’s activities, art and music.

All are Welcome!
