Description

created by admin

Racists slurs and behaviour is increasing among school children. For example, students from minorities are called with racist slurs, such as "niggers" while "white" students associated with the ethnic "others" are also discriminated against, i.e. "we feel sorry for you for hanging out with the dark skinners". Students report being bullied and marginalised due to the name calling. Furthermore, students report that teachers do not interfere sufficiently in racist incidents and that the attitudes of teachers are polarising against the students who are not "real Finnish".

Why racist

"Nigger" is a widely known racist slur to degrade the dark skinned individuals as the ethnic other. By establishing the inferior other and publicly associating the white skinned students "to be sorry for" because of their relations with the established "other" is extension of discrimination. The racist slurs are further reinforced when not condemned by the school staff.

Asettamalla tummaihoiset opiskelijat yhteisön ulkopuolelle ja antamalla ymmärtää, että yhteydenpito heidän kanssaan olisi syy sääliä valkoihoisia, lausuma tosiasiassa syrjii tummaihoisia.

Az „másik” alacsonyabbrendűként való meghatározása és az így kialakított „másikkal” kapcsolatban lévő fehér bőrű tanulók nyílt „sajnálnata” a diszkrimináció kiterjesztése.

Afferma l’inferiorità dell’ “altro”: l’associare pubblicamente il “ci dispiace per voi”, indirizzato agli studenti bianchi che intrattengono rapporti con i menzionati “altri”, rappresenta una estensione della discriminazione a chi non la pratica.

Opredelitev manjvrednega drugega in javno povezovanje “belske” (večinske) skupine študentov "kot usmiljenja vredne", ker so povezani s tako imenovanimi "drugumi", je podaljšek diskriminacije.
