Join The Civil Rights Caravan

The Civil Rights Caravan is now beginning its month-long journey thru England. The Caravan, a form of grassroots resistance, is demanding;

* Full rights for asylum-seekers, undocumented workers, migrants, and victims of racist attacks

* The right to asylum and an end to detention, deportation, vouchers and dispersal

* An end to racism and racist violence The Caravan will link up with a series of events being planned across the country, such as protests at Campsfield Detention Centre in Oxford on 17 September, the demonstration for asylum rights in Newcastle on September 30 and the National Demonstration against Racism in London on 14 October.

The Route:

You can support the caravan by a donation to 'CARF' at BM BOX 8784, London WC1N 3XX or help organise locally; people in each town on the route are needed for accommodation, food, entertainment and publicity.
