Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination!

It also marks the start of the Week of Solidarity with the Peoples Struggling against Racism and Racial Discrimination (March 21 - 27th).

"The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination is an opportunity to renew our commitment to building a world of justice and equality where xenophobia and bigotry do not exist.
