Racial discrimination

	What is the racial hatred act
		'Racial hatred' is an umbrella term used to describe a range of behaviours from abuse or harassment based on race, to racially biased reporting and the use of offensive stereotypes in the media.
		The racial hatred legislation was heatedly debated among politicians, the media and civil liberties groups before it eventually came into operation in October 1995.
		Thus, unless it is able to establish one of the exemptions, a radio station is potentially liable for the broadcast of racially offensive statements made by announcers, interviewees, or by any member of the public participating in a talkback session, regardless of whether the interviewer endorses the remark.

	Your Rights: The Right of Free Expression: Criminal law restrictions on freedom of expression: Racial hatred
		The offences of inciting or stirring up racial hatred have been progressively expanded since they were first introduced in 1965.
		Racial hatred is defined by the Public Order Act 1986 as hatred against a group of persons in Great Britain defined by reference to colour, race, nationality - including citizenship - or ethnic or national origins.

	Incitement to ethnic or racial hatred - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Incitement to racial or ethnic hatred is a crime under the laws of a number of countries.
		Under the Law of the United Kingdom, "incitement to racial hatred" was established as an offense by the provisions of §§ 17-29 of the Public Order Act 1986.
		As of 2005, the British government are attempting to bring in a similar law for incitement to religious hatred, but this has met with tough opposition by civil liberties groups, comedians, and others, who argue that it would stifle religious debate.

		If members of minority communities face incitement to hatred and call for legislation to defend them against this, it is surely the duty of socialists to support them, or at the very least listen to and honestly assess the views expressed by those who are the actual victims of oppression.
		The Racial and Religious Hatred Bill is in reality a welcome (and long overdue) move by the government to address a loophole in Part 3 of the 1986 Public Order Act, which criminalises incitement to racial hatred.
		When the far Right incites hatred against Jews, even if it does so ostensibly on the basis of their religious beliefs, it is clear that the aim and effect is to incite racial hatred.

	Britain: The case against New Labour's religious hate law
		When members of a “racial” group are also members of a religious group because they share a common religion, it is a question of fact whether adverse treatment against the group is based on “race” or “religion”.
		Instead of sweepingly broad new offences of stirring up religious hatred, we need a carefully tailored provision that makes it clear that all “racial groups”, including those who also belong to religious groups, are equally protected when hatred is stirred up against them because of their ethnicity.
		Hatred is not an activity; it is an emotion or a state of mind.

	Criminalising Racial Hatred: Learning from the Canadian Experience [1994] AJHR 3; (1994) 1 AJHR
		On the specific issue of laws dealing with racial hatred, Canada provides a very useful comparative reference, particularly in light of recent decisions of the Supreme Court of Canada which address the constitutional status of prohibitions on expressions of racial hatred.
		In Canada, public expressions of racial hatred are the subject of a combination of federal and provincial statutes, involving both civil and criminal sanctions.
		[A]lthough the organized public expression of racial hatred appears to be confined to a relatively small number of extremists, attitudes of racial hatred have existed and been officially promoted and condoned throughout Canadian history as ideological support for the racial oppression and discrimination inherent in colonial capitalism.

		While this usually refers to discrimination against minority racial groups in Western societies, it can also refer to the opposite situation, and in that case is often called reverse discrimination when it is due to affirmative action or other attempts to remedy past or current discrimination against minority racial groups.
		Racial profiling of minorities by law enforcement officials is considered by some people to be a form of racism.
		Racism infers an assumption of racial superiority and a harmful intent, whereas separatists sometimes prefer the term racialism, indicating a strong interest in matters of race without a necessary inference of superiority or a desire to be harmful to others.

		This is born not necessarily of racial superiority or hatred of other races, but a desire for uniformity and continuity based on historical factors and culture.

		Both violence and incitement to violence, racial or otherwise, is already a crime—a fact acknowledged in Keating's May 28 speech by reference to long-term jail sentences handed down in Perth.

		The other day I ran across a newspaper report of a most remarkable and bizarre study wherein the researchers decided to examine the responses of 24 white college students to determine the hidden racial beliefs of white Americans overall.
		This next point is that no experiment which purports to judge racial relations can have any validity if it only examines the responses and attitudes of one race.
		Had they used members of both races and compared the outcomes then they might have had something meaningful to say about racial bias, but, as it is, the study illuminates nothing.

		A verbal attack on members of a racial group is an attack on their common humanity.
		A verbal attack on members of a religious group, expressing intemperate criticism of, or hostility to, the beliefs, teachings or practices of their religion, is not an attack on their common humanity, unless in reality it involves an attack on their ethnicity.
