why now ??
Right now racism is at its highest with more reported cases of racism happening world wide as well as just in the United Kingdom. These cases are getting more and more severe with more physical abuse happening rather than verbal. People are now afraid to leave their homes, get on buses on their own etc as they are worried they will be the next case of a racist attack. Most people believe that racism can only work one way this is a lie! Racism can occur between any race/culture with any race/culture being the racist in the situation their in, also just because someones your friend and they say they that they don't mind that doesn't matter you are still being racist. People find it unfair when friends are racist to each other as to try and be friends with that group they join in and are then named as a racist. Racism happens everyday across the world, especially in schools where friendship groups are important to people and where teachers sometimes don't do anything to help or don't even know about what is occuring in their schools. This is what we are trying to stop as if more people are aware of racism happening then they will be more alert to it and will discover it before it could get any worse for the victims.
