A London May Day march in 2016
FOOTAGE has emerged of an incident in which a black woman appears to be called a “n***er” on the London May Day march.
Community activist and feminist Lesley Woodburn described how a group of young white people racially abused her for a banner she was carrying with a friend on May 1.
The banner displayed the dictionary definition of the word woman: “Woman: Adult human female,” which she said she was carrying to “defend our sex-based rights as women and girls,” in relation to contemporary debate about sex and gender.
