Continuing the theme of the excellent Voice of the Fans exhibition from @leedslibraries.bsky.social and @britishlibrary.bsky.social, here's a piece from LOP/Northern Star about anti-racist activities at Elland Road in 1992.

How perdy is my writing space @sunnybankmills.bsky.social 🤩Well it’s not mine, it’s borrowed. But I love it!

Be kind 🥰 #yorkshire #writers
