New website allows public to report racism

See it. Send it. End it.

That is the message behind a new website being launched today that lets the public report racist incidents in confidence.

iReport.ie has been set up by the European Network Against Racism, who said there is a serious lack of data on the subject at the moment.

They're encouraging users to break the silence and come forward if they see anything.

Emmanuel Sone encountered racist chanting on public transport after moving here from Cameroon.

"I was embarrassed, feeling insulted and threatened," he said.

"You felt really not welcome, it’s a feeling you get but the reality could always be different

"People need to stand up in a civil society we cannot allow something like that to happen."
