Stopping racism is everyone's responsibility
Racism can get ugly. Think of the incidents of racist abuse on public transport that frequently attract media coverage.
It's an unpleasant experience to witness racist vitriol or confrontation. It's even worse when you're on the receiving end of it. Those who have copped a racist spray or attack often say it makes them feel like a lesser being.
Not all racism takes such dramatic form. Sometimes it can be silent or subtle. But even relatively mundane acts of racism have an impact on those who experience them.
