This St Patrick's Day, @POTUS your roots are calling, demand a ceasefire and stop the transfers of arms. More than 30,000 people have now been killed in Israel’s onslaught on the occupied Gaza Strip, many by US-made munitions.
Write for Rights 2023 ✅ A huge thank you to all those who came along today to draft letters of solidarity and advocacy on global human rights issues 🕊
Happy International Human Rights Day. 🇺🇳 Great support today in @BlackBoxBelfast for @AIActivistsNI @AmnestyNI annual #WriteForRights as part of the #NIHRF 🕯️⛓️
Come and drop in anytime between 11am-3pm in the Green Room at the Black Box for the annual Amnesty Belfast Write for Rights Event! This is an opportunity to put pen to paper to express solidarity with those suffering from human rights abuses globally ✊
Our response on Rwanda scheme ruling This judgment is vital to protect people seeking asylum in this country, but the Government must now draw a line under a disgraceful chapter in the UK’s political history. #RefugeesWelcome amnesty.org.uk/press-releases…
Amnesty activists will be joining this public rally tomorrow at 630 in Shaftesbury Square. Belfast is coming together to show a strong message that there is no place for hate in our city.
The cruel #TroublesBill must be scrapped. Families deserve nothing less than full truth, justice and accountability. #BillofShame @AmnestyNI @GTeggart @PatrickCorrigan
The cruel #TroublesBill must be scrapped. Families deserve nothing less than full truth, justice and accountability. #BillofShame @AmnestyNI @GTeggart @PatrickCorrigan
At the Ballymurphy Massacre final march on Sunday. The appalling Troubles bill is an insult to all those who have fought for truth, justice and accountability for decades. It must be scrapped. #TimeforTruth #BillofShame
Housing people who have fled terror & conflict in spaces as small as parking spots is shameful. #BibbyStockholm is more than just a boat - it's a stark symbol of the UK's inhuman ‘no asylum’ policy that's turned its back on human rights. We demand a fair asylum system now.
We are bringing together activists to discuss the pressing issue of hate speech in Belfast City Centre and how we can organise against it. There is no place for hate here and our city must be a safe and welcoming space for everyone. Come along and have your say. All welcome!
Yesterday, we were proud to join @causewaypride0 in Portrush, the home town of the legendary LGBT+ activist Mark Ashton. We fully support the campaign for a permanent statue to mark his contribution across these islands. @CausewayCouncil should deliver without delay.
Also, @CausewayCouncil / @VisitCauseway, it's time for a memorial to Mark Ashton!
Fantastic day in Portrush for @causewaypride0 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ 'One community should give solidarity to another' - Mark Ashton #Pride2023 #PrideIsProtest #EveryoneIsWelcomeHere
Amnesty activists will be attending Causeway Pride on Saturday in Portrush to stand in solidarity with our LGBT+ members, friends and colleagues across the North. If you'd like to join, just send us a DM or email [email protected].
Incredibly excited for @causewaypride0 this weekend. There’s a screening of @PrideMovieUK on Friday night and a lovely rally planned for Saturday. Thanks to all who are making Causeway Coast and Glens more welcoming than when Mark Ashton left in 1979. Do come along.🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

BREAKING: We lit up Parliament with faces of victims of the Northern Ireland conflict This week, Parliament will debate passing a law that will BLOCK victims from getting justice It threatens peace & denies rights The #TroublesBill MUST be scrapped WATCH & SHARE 👇
A huge thank you to Congressman Mike Quigley of Illinois, who took in an Irish intern (me) for the summer. 🇺🇸🇮🇪 I had the opportunity to learn so many valuable lessons which I can’t wait to bring home to Ireland. All thanks to Rep. Quigley, his incredible team, and WIP 🤝🏻
Housing people who have fled terror & conflict in spaces as small as parking spots is shameful. #BibbyStockholm is more than just a boat - it's a stark symbol of the UK's inhuman ‘no asylum’ policy that's turned its back on human rights. We demand a fair asylum system now.
Massive congratulations to you all. Transformation is at hand! New friendships and networks … ; get ready to be inspired and motivated. Wish you all the very best.
