On the streets of Leicester, England, groups of young people, mainly Hindus and Muslims, have been facing off. Since August 28, videos have shown groups of masked youths heading into the streets amid rising tensions. Although community leaders have called for calm, many people, including our Observer, fear the violence will resume in the coming weeks.
Representatives of both Hindu and Muslim communities gathered outside Leicester's Jame Mosque on September 19 to call for calm. After several weeks of tension and violence involving Hindus and Muslims, they called on "inciters of hatred to leave [their] city alone"
