Black Africans the main victims of racist incidents

Black Africans are the main target for racism with a new report showing Dublin and Limerick have the highest number of incidents of alleged racism.

The first quarterly study issued by iReport.ie — a site which seeks to log all reports of racism made to it in confidence — shows the highest number of reported incidents of racism took place in the afternoon, and then after 9pm.

Taken from July to September, the report, launched today, shows black people of African origin were the most targeted group, with 23 complainants. The next most targeted group were Asian people not from China.
