NO JUSTICE,
NO PEACE!
Please control the police.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,
IT'S TIME TO GET TOUGH!
Can't you see
We've called your bluff?
WE DON'T WANT FORGIVENESS,
FOR THE COLOUR OF OUR SKIN!
Black isn't a sin.
SILENCE EQUALS VIOLENCE,
I STAND WITH YOU!
There's no time for patience
What will you do?
POLICE TERROR AND VIOLENCE
IS ALSO A VIRUS!
The hate you spread
Has only inspired us.
I'M NOT A THREAT
OR DID YOU FORGET?
When you knelt down
On my neck?
NO PEACE!
Please control the police.

If you can afford to, please take time to spread the word and donate to any charities or funds supporting Black Lives Matter. It is important that we all stand together in this time of need and show the idiots running our countries how serious we are.
To all of those attending protests, don't forget to plan ahead with hand sanitiser, masks, thick clothing and comfortable shoes. Protect yourselves from COVID-19, rubber bullets and teargas.
