Project releases school video on racism

KNOW Racism, a national anti-racism campaign, has launched an educational video aimed at secondary schools with a view to raising awareness of race concerns in the classroom.

Dealing with such issues as tolerance, respect, diversity, discrimination, racism, stereotyping and multiculturalism, the video is designed as an teaching aid on the topic of racism and interculturalism.

Know Racism chairman Joe McDonagh is convinced that educational initiatives like this can make a difference in building awareness of racism in Ireland.
