Hate Crime Demo on Jubilee Square

Jim Davis and Jo Hayward

Available for over a year

Tuesday evening (28/06/16) saw around 150 people turn out for an event in Leicester's Jubilee Square calling for solidarity and unity in the wake of last week's somewhat unsettling EU referendum result. Reports from elsewhere in the country suggest there's been a disturbing spate of what's thought to be racially-motivated hate crimes. So for the organisers of last night's gathering, it was time to come together and send out a clear message that such behaviour will NOT be tolerated here - and despite our political differences - divisions must be healed. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Leicester's Nisha Chopra spoke to some of those taking part.
