According to Today’s Zaman, the group was composed of members of some civil society organizations and marched along İstiklal Street holding a huge banner that read: “We are marching for the brotherhood of people against racism.” The group also held banners that read “Hate is yours, humanity is ours” and “We will not allow racism.” A statement released by the Turkish Interior Ministry earlier said it is impossible to justify “some slogans and banners” during the rally, referring to those offending Armenians.
