2,000 people braved torrential rain in Cardiff on January 28 to demonstrate against racism in South Wales.
The march was led by the family of Mohan Singh Kullar who died in December after being found in a pool of blood outside his shop in Neath. Three men have been charged with his murder.
The march was one of the biggest ever mobilisations against racism in Wales.
This kind of unity in action against racism is needed now more than ever. Although Mohan's death is the first racist murder in recent times, it did occur in a climate of increasingly well-organised activity by racists.
The South Wales valleys now experience some of the worst housing, lowest wages and highest unemployment anywhere in Britain. This is the breeding ground of racism.
Wales ARA has monitored a dramatic rise in the number of racist attacks across South Wales. There have also been a number of physical attacks and death threats made against leading anti-racist activists in Cardiff.
We must now build upon the unity achieved in the demonstration and put pressure on the Wales Labour Party and TUC to mobilise the greatest numbers against racism
