SOCIALIST FORUM
Why Is Racism on the Rise?
7.30pm Wed 11 August, Robinsons Bottom Bar
opposite the Europa Hotel (Great Victoria Street)
Speaker: Barbara Muldoon - [ARN Steering Committee (personal
capacity)]
The new wave of attacks on ethnic minorities in
South Belfast have once again brought in to sharp focus the
horrific edge of racism. For a long time it has been argued
that racism cannot be a feature of society within N. Ireland,
since sectarianism over shadowed every thing else.
The nature of the attacks brings into question the role of
institutions like the Housing Executive and the police. So
too does the inaction of politicians.
Barbara Muldoon who is active in the ARN and represents many
refugees and ethnic minorities on the receiving end of racist
policies will outline the reasons for the rise in racial attacks. |
The third European
Social Forum (ESF) will take place from 14-17 October in London.
