There are lots of things you can do if you witness racist behaviour. Bystander intervention may be able to stop a racist incident, prevent it from escalating and potentially prevent or minimise social or emotional harm to the targeted person or group. Taking a personal stand also contributes to the establishment of social norms which make racist behaviour unacceptable in our community and has the potential to affect individuals’ attitudes in the long term.
