Tonight, in advance of tomorrow’s march marking the 53rd anniversary of the Bloody Sunday massacre, Éirígí activists in Derry staged a banner drop highlighting the bloody trail that imperialism has left in Derry, Gaza and elsewhere.
It's the 53rd anniversary of #BloodySunday.
On 30 January 1972 British soldiers shot 26 unarmed civilians during a protest march in the Bogside area of Derry, Northern Ireland.
The British state murdered 14 people on that day.
