March 21st of each year has been deemed International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. The day was created to commemorate the shooting deaths of 69 peaceful demonstrators at an anti-apartheid rally by the hands of police in Sharpesville, South Africa. Among the 69 killed were 10 children. In 1966, six years after the massacre, International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination was proclaimed.
White Supremacists are trying to get a foothold here in the lower mainland.  Over the last year The Aryan Guard in Calgary has fallen apart due to resistance, infighting, and the fact that they are idiots.  Groups have been looking at moving into areas in the lower mainland, Vancouver, and Vancouver Island.

They are promoting their cause as a celebration of the White Race (which avoids Canada’s Hate Crime laws).  In reality they are fascists, neo-nazis, bigots, and racists.

These White Supremacists are holding a rally here in the lower mainland on the 21st as show of International White Pride.
They plan to rally at Braid Skytrain St at noon and march from there.

The Anti-Poverty Committee plans to join other groups in opposition to white supremacist hate groups.

At 10am on March 21st, We will be meeting with other groups at the Safeway parking lot at Broadway & Commercial and we will all move to the Braid Skytrain Station as a group. You can also join the counter-rally at 11am at the Braid Skytrain station.

We want to invite you to come join us in making
this day of the end of racial discrimination mean what it stands for.

No Racism in Vancouver!
No Racism on Coast Salish Territories!
No Racism anywhere!
