A new anti-racism network is encouraging people in Australia to report racist atttacks
A new anti-racism network is encouraging people in Australia to report racist attacks
May 17, 2021 A survey by Victoria University found 64 per cent of respondents had experienced racism or a member of their household had in the last 12 months, but only 13 per cent reported it. The report finding the main reason for keeping silent was they felt nothing would change as a result, or there could be negative backlash. Now, Victoria University and Wyndham Community and Education Centre have launched what they call an Australian-first local anti-racism network. The network involves upskilling local community organisations to become the first line of defence for people experiencing racism, to help more people speak out, access services and put the incidents on the record. https://www.sbs.com.au/news/a-new-an...racist-attacks |
