Check out this thread on Mahmood Mattan, a Welsh Somali man who was wrongly convicted to death for the murder of Lily Volpert in 1952. He didn't do it- and was his charge was quashed years after his death in the 1990s [39] https://twitter.com/BLMCardiff/status/1269281865309061121
This film by @GavinPorter_ featuring @ali_zay89 and others touches on community cohesion and police-community relations around the 1919 race riots 101 years ago. A young man called Mohamed Abdullah died during the 1919 race riots. [40]
We have shared these links between questions of police and community relations between BAME communities in Cardiff and the police in South Wales run deep, and are intergenerational [41]
Finally, this link on the #CardiffThree is also part of the legacy that predates the relationship between BAME communities and the police in #Cardiff, particularly Butetown. It runs deep. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/idt-sh/Lynette_White_Cardiff_Murder [42]
A firework has been thrown at the police at Cardiff Bay.
The Hassan family agreed to this demonstration on the condition it was a peaceful demonstration.

We urge all to disperse in fear of safety and to leave in groups for safety, minimum of 2 per group. This is not a drill, we r v concerned for safety of EVERYONE at the demo and everyone in G-town, B-town, Docks and the Bay. [44]
