Down with the slave trade!
Comment
For me this was one of the most refreshing things to see here in the UK over the weekend. The UK has been incredibly docile and acquiescent to the official lockdown narrative, yet here we are, about 150,000 people came out to protest about racist oppression.
Here is what took place in Bristol, where a strong but peaceful group pulled down the statue of a 17th century slave trader and pushed it into the marina. It's so poignant on many levels: 1) the people overcame any reticence and fear of the lockdown 2) Bristol (and the marina) happens to be a key centre for the Templar Knights, those who protected pilgrams on the way to the holy lands 3) it's symbolic of tearing down the slavery in which we've all been encapsulated.
It may not be seen that way generally, but for me, synchronicity of the heart speaks far louder than the intention of the mind...
