Following the death of George Floyd on May 25th 2020 students at the University of Kent campus joined together as a strong collective voice to support the US Black Lives Matter anti-racist protests in demand for social justice and police accountability. On 6th and 12th June 2020, students led peaceful protests through Canterbury city centre in light of systematic racism, police brutality and in solidarity with protests around the globe. This photographic exhibition is a glaring visual reminder that ‘Enough Is Enough’
