The huge NF letters spray painted in white on a wall outside Shadia Al Hili's home, in Salford in the 1980s, meant very little to her at first.
Oblivious to their meaning and with no understanding of the far-right, fascist political party the National Front, Shadia, who was born to a Moroccan and Yemeni parents, barely acknowledged the white, painted letters until one day a boy pointed them out to her.
Laughingly he joked about the "irony" of her standing in front of the sign - and only then did a confused and innocent Shadia find out what the painted letters stood for - and the bigoted politics behind them.
