International Day for the Elimination of Discrimination Racial remembers the victims of the slaughter of Sharpeville on 21 March 1960, in which South African police killed 69 peaceful demonstrators against apartheid. This tragedy marked an important milestone in the fight against racism, but this fight is not won at all.
After more than forty years, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance are still extremely serious problems. In fact, discrimination is deeply embedded in the economic, social and political in many societies, besides being a cause of a large number of violent conflicts. Unlike the dominant groups, members of certain racial or ethnic groups continue to be more exposed to poverty and have less access to adequate health services and education. The persistence of old patterns of racism condemns many to a life of marginalization and humiliation. And in the last decade has created new forms of hatred On the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, we should honor all victims of past and present, to intensify our efforts to build a future free of this scourge and world in which equality is a reality for everyone.
