- We stand with Caster Semenya and Black women everywhere whose bodies and womanhood are violated and policed. Despite the racism, sexism and misogynoir we’re subjected to daily, we are powerful, beautiful and we will not be contained ✊🏾♥️🏃🏿♀️
- UK Black Pride is officially the World’s largest Black Pride in the world with its attendance of 25,000 people yesterday. #UKBlackPride
- Replying to @ukblackprideSocial media is a vital tool in the fight for equality, and a feed full of black squares does not let us know that you stand in solidarity with us. It is a silence and an erasure that we cannot afford.
- An important thread from @alxndrleon ahead of this year’s UK Black Pride. And the @MNEK gifs are perfect seeing as he’s HEADLINING. See you there ✊🏾🏳️🌈❤️
- We stand with @munroebergdorf and Black women everywhere who continue to be subject to gross mistreatment and double standards. To the spineless leadership @NSPCC, remove the rainbow from your branding. You’ve quite the journey ahead to prove your worthy of flying our flag.
- Beautiful things happen WHEN WE RISE. Special shoutout to all of our dedicated team, from the core team who have worked on this for a year to the fantastic day volunteers. ❤️
00:00 - Replying to @ukblackprideFor our allies, there are many conversations you all need to have with each other. Please continue to share information, educate each other and donate to causes that directly support Black people and protests. #BlackOutTuesday is not a day off, pls.
- Munroe, we stand by you, by Black trans women around the world and by the communities we represent, today and always. We are all so emotional and so proud of you, Munroe. ✊🏾❤️🏳️🌈
- “It’s all about inclusivity and respect. Support UK Black Pride.” The queen of @PoseOnFX, @tyraaross.✊🏾🏳️🌈❤️
00:00 - A reminder that anti-racism is an active choice and exercise. Don’t just say “BLACK LIVES MATTER” online without doing the work or having conversations. It’s times like this when we notice those around us who continue to see this as an American issue instead of a global one.
- To all the women-loving-women, We celebrate you today and everyday. Know that you are powerful and loved and that our movement for liberation is nothing without you. We are honoured to share this day and this life with you. ♥️ UK Black Pride #LesbianVisibilityDay
- Happy Trans Pride! If you’re out marching today, look out for one another, take up space, express your love and your rage, and remember that our trans and GNC siblings deserve nothing less than absolute autonomy and equality. Now and forever. ✊🏾🏳️⚧️
- UK Black Pride was birthed in 2005, when a bus load of Black lesbians travelled to Southend-on-Sea to celebrate themselves and bear witness to each other as Black womxn living and loving at the intersection of racial, gendered and class oppression. #LesbianVisibilityWeek 1/3
