Celebrate the lives of...



How do we carry on? 2 Asian men were slashed. A Black man was shot dead in a revenge attack in the West Midlands. Then there was a drive by shooting of an Asian household. We heard the tears of the grieving father of the Black child asking for "no more" revenge attacks.

We can only carry on; the title is not tongue in cheek at all, but deliberate. We must celebrate the lives of Stephen Lawrence, this other lad, forgive me I do not know his name, and the 15 year old White Scottish lad whose life was also taken by racists. We must remember as if these were our own children.
