Thousands of people have attended an anti-racism rally in Belfast following days of unrest provoked by a knife attack.
Organized by the Unite Against Racism organization, the Together Against Hate rally is taking place outside Belfast City Hall.
It follows days of violent demonstrations held across the city in the wake of a stabbing attack which saw Stephen Ogilvie lose his eye and suffer deep cuts to his head, face and back.
Several attendees at the rally held placards reading slogans such as: "Racists go home," and: "The problem is evil and violence, not race."
