Stand Up to Racism is a broad-based anti-racist organisation that brings together trade unions, community organisations, students, campaigners, faith groups, cultural figures and anti-racist activists.

Our aim is to oppose racism, fascism and the politics of division. We do this by building mass anti-racist and anti-fascist action that unites those who want to oppose the far right’s hate.

We are fighting to build a movement against racism, fascism, Islamophobia, and antisemitism.

We want a movement that rejects any scapegoating of refugees, Muslims, Black communities and other oppressed groups. For too long, politicians, the media and the far right have looked to divide ordinary people by blaming these groups for problems instead caused by inequality, austerity and the failures of government.

We campaign nationally and locally by organising demonstrations, rallies, public meetings, workplace and community events, gigs, conferences, school and college activity and solidarity actions with refugees and migrants.

We believe that unity, solidarity and collective action are the strongest weapons in our arsenal. Our work shows that racists and fascists can be challenged and defeated when we stand together.

We are an activist-led organisation. We are coordinated through elected officers and an executive committee, who help organise our national campaigns, events and mobilisations.

Our work is rooted in our local groups that bring together a wide array of people and organisations. It is the activity of these groups that provides the foundation of our campaigns.

We are supported by affiliated trade unions and organisations, whose backing helps strengthen the anti-racist movement in workplaces, communities and campaigns across Britain.
