“We should never underestimate the lengths that the British state will go to silence and crack down on dissent and non violent protest... We made this film, The Day Innocence Died, about the aftermath of a civil rights march... and the British state responded by opening fire and murdering 14 people.” In a vital conversation, co-director Richard York of the Rainbow Collective breaks down the cyclical nature of state oppression. The Day Innocence Died documents the immediate legacy of the Bloody Sunday massacre—a moment where a community marching for equal rights and better living conditions under military occupation was met with lethal state violence. York warns that the historical lengths the state went to then are directly mirrored in the present day. As modern public authorities increasingly weaponize the courts to hold peaceful climate, anti-war, and human rights protesters on extended remand or threaten them with severe terror charges, the message remains clear: state self-preservation always target dissent first. https://thedayinnocencedied.com/ 📍 London 📅 13 July 2026 #TheDayInnocenceDied #BloodySunday #RainbowCollective #CivilRights #StateOppression ProtestRights FreeSpeech IrishHistory TheCanary IndependentJournalism 16 Jul 2026
