"Interest Convergence", I haven't heard that term before, will have to look into that a little deeper, but the idea of this terminology is correct, which makes me think of integration. Integration, we fought for it with our, blood, sweat, and tears, but it ultimately benefitted White people the most, whereas segregation took us down a road of prosperity, independence, and unity, which is why White people are arguing against Donald Trump's anti-POC actions, because they know how deeply it will affect them and their businesses. Just imagine if Trump was to invoke all-out segregation laws, then imagine how many "Black Wall Streets" would pop up, in every major city and beyond, and imagine how many White businesses would either struggle or be forced out of business due to the absence of the "Black & Latino dollar". Segregation laws would effectively be a self inflicted boycott of White businesses, and one thing White people desperately fear is someone messing with their money. Let's consider segregation more deeply, the revival of this concept for this day and age is very interesting and inviting to us, so much so that White people are ready to protest Trump's policies, and they have even as far to tell Black people to stay home on April 5th, because they got this one. Stay tuned in people, this is going to be quite interesting.

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, when the revolution comes the Elvii will rise

There's nothing quite like showing up to a protest in my shitty country southern town and seeing so many people there with signs and hugs and smiles.

Hundreds of people in a place I didn't think had hundreds.

It was nice.

London Protests 2025: A Divided Nation on Display

On September 13, 2025, London witnessed one of its largest and most polarizing protests in years. The “Unite the Kingdom” rally, promoted by far-right activist Tommy Robinson, drew an estimated 110,000–150,000 participants carrying Union Jacks and St George’s Crosses. Organizers framed the march as a defense of free speech and British heritage, while critics described it as an anti-immigrant, nationalist spectacle.

The rally coincided with a counter-protest by Stand Up to Racism, which brought 5,000 people advocating multiculturalism and opposing sectarianism. Despite a heavy police presence of 1,600 officers, tensions escalated. Clashes broke out in parts of central London, with flares, stone-throwing, and violence leading to injuries among 26 officers—four seriously—and 25 arrests.

At the heart of the protest was Britain’s ongoing debate over immigration. With asylum seekers and small boat arrivals rising, frustrations over housing shortages, strained public services, and cultural change have fueled anti-immigration sentiment. While marchers argued they were exercising free speech, opponents accused them of veering into xenophobia and Islamophobia. The demonstration has reignited a national conversation about the boundary between legitimate political expression and hate speech.

Political leaders condemned the violence. Prime Minister Keir Starmer affirmed the right to protest but rejected racism and intimidation, warning against turning national symbols into tools of division. Civil society groups called for stronger safeguards for minority communities and stricter action against extremist marches.

The scale of the rally signals a growing far-right movement in the UK and highlights deep social fractures. Immigration, identity, and nationalism remain flashpoints that could shape Britain’s political future. Whether such demonstrations ignite further unrest or spark constructive dialogue will depend on how politicians, law enforcement, and citizens respond in the months ahead.

I think we need to bring protest songs back into the public eye; it’s feeling like a very Pete Seeger kind of autumn, hummina hummina

Protest Song Posting:

Ohio

By Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young

Because we all need to be familiar with the classics.

Lyrics:

[Chorus]

Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'

We're finally on our own

This summer I hear the drummin'

Four dead in Ohio

[Verse]

Gotta get down to it

Soldiers are gunning us down

Should have been done long ago

What if you knew her and

Found her dead on the ground?

How can you run when you know?

[Chorus]

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

[Verse]

Gotta get down to it

Soldiers are gunning us down

Should have been done long ago

What if you knew her and

Found her dead on the ground?

How can you run when you know?

[Chorus]

Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'

We're finally on our own

This summer I hear the drummin'

Four dead in Ohio

[Outro]

Four dead in Ohio (Whoa!)

Four dead in Ohio (four)

Four dead in Ohio (Ah!)

Four dead in Ohio (How many more?)

Four dead in Ohio (What?)

Four dead in Ohio (Oh!)

Four dead in Ohio (Oh!)

Four dead in Ohio (What?)

Four dead in Ohio (Ah)

Four dead in Ohio

Info:

Ohio was written in the wake of the Kent State Massacre.

On May 4th, 1970, National Guard troops deployed to the Kent State campus in Ohio fired upon unarmed protesters, killing 4 people. Several of those murdered or injured that day were not protestors at all, but just students trying to cross campus on their way to class.
