Let’s pretend it was black or brown people. A group of right-wing citizens decided that they had a right to march anywhere they wanted. So they thought the Garvaghy Road, full of black and brown people, would be a good place to exercise their democratic right. The right-wingers, let’s pretend, had a history. Less than thirty years ago they kept insisting on marching through this black and brown neighbourhood and their insistence led to the deaths of over twenty people. Would the black and brown community have a right to say “They shall not pass”? Would they have a right to build barricades, link up with groups who believed in their right to live free of humiliation?
