fair play. soemthing the racists can be envious of once again....culture.
I don’t think the racists against the Roma will mind, there does not appear to me to be any Roma people attending or participating, and nothing in this article gives any indication to me as to whether they were even invited to participate or attend.
Racism and sectarianism are rampant in Belfast. I have found it to be an intolerant and divisive city in the extreme, despite all the expensive t.v. advertisements displaying Belfast people with no tradition or culture (do such Belfast people exist?) doing nothing more than shopping and having the craic, and only welcoming any foreigner amadán enough to buy them a drink (that last bit could be true of a few, I suppose).
I recall my close encounter with Belfast intolerance in modern times, when I was declared a ‘Fenian Bitch’ by a man glaring at me from across a street - this declaration was bizarrely meant as a very ‘grave’ insult to me. I have great respect for the inspiring Fenians, but I was shocked by this sudden attack of backwardness in broad daylight given the fact that: I am not old enough to be a genuine member of the Fenians (otherwise, I would be entered in the ‘Guinness Book of Records‘) - as the much esteemed historic Fenians have not been recruiting for some time! It is, surely, all too embarrassing to witness such blatant ignorance and primitive sectarianism displayed openly on a street in modern times.
Racist/sectarian attacks do absolutely nothing to enhance this island’s reputation worldwide, but leaves an ugly stain on the places where these attacks occur/and are permitted to occur, and brand all who express no outrage, as both racist and backward.
