This is a photograph of the Black Lives Matter protest. Police estimate there were 1,500 people protesting. We were organised into groups of 10, and practicing social distancing whilst wearing masks and gloves.
It was a very powerful and emotional time being part of such a large group, gathered for a simple purpose, to stand up against institutionalised racism. It was the largest protest the Isle of Man has seen in over 40 year.
