Today, as we mark #InternationalMigrantsDay, we want to introduce Migrant Justice Edinburgh, a new project proving that migrants are not passive or invisible, but that through our stories, ideas, actions and decisions we can change our city for the better. @regenfuturesfund.bsky.social

Powerful afternoon with Stand Up To Racism Edinburgh on Princes Street. The gov scapegoats marginalised communities to distract from its own failures. One group after another—who’s next? We stand in solidarity. #Antiracism #Solidarity #StandUpToRacism #Edinburgh #NoToHate
