The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination is observed annually on 21 March - the day police in Sharpeville, South Africa, opened fire and killed 69 people at a peaceful demonstration against apartheid "pass laws" in 1960. https://t.co/zcOdTO5Suc

Today is not #HarmonyDay. Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Harmony day is the classic whitewashed Australian way of trying to deny that racism exists. Don't fall for it!

Just your annual reminder that the creation of “Harmony Day” was John Howard’s attempt to gloss over racism in Australia. It’s actually the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Globally and locally, we’ve got so much to do #FightRacism

21 March is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination Since 1999, Australians have known it as Harmony Day because John Howard didn’t “accept there was underlying racism in Australia” So why would we waste time eliminating something that doesn’t exist? https://t.co/KPgbUcvWTm
