The international day was started in memory of the Sharpeville Massacre in South Africa on 21 March 1960.
ㅤ
However, 60-years later we are once again witnessing the rise of the far right and fascism, the EU and US are no exceptions to this.
ㅤ
In addition, the year 2024 is likewise the 80-year mark since the Auschwitz concentration camp was liberated and the horrors of the Nazi regime were exposed. Back then, the world agreed – never again!
ㅤ
Yet, to this day the world leaders are still hell bent on ignoring the humanitarian catastrophes, the suffering and the ongoing mass killings and genocides. We therefore call for an end for all the killings, be it in Sudan, Yemen, Palestine, Western Sahara, Rojava in Syria, or anywhere else –never again, means never again!
ㅤ
While political leaders have made racism and discrimination mainstream everywhere in the world, the number of displaced people and refugees has long since passed 100 million. People are fleeing war, oppression, and climate chaos, while legal escape routes are closing.
ㅤ
This racism is evident in the EU’s deadly pushbacks, increased border militarization, and utter disregard for human life. While In Denmark, refugees and asylum seekers face temporary residencies, forced deportations by armed police, and inhumane treatment inside the deportation camps, while migrant workers are treated harshly and face the reality of daily racism in schools, workplaces, and on the streets.
ㅤ
Racism divides us! Racism makes us fear each other! Racism kills!
ㅤ
There are times in history when we must stand up, and the situation is as serious and urgent, as it is deadly – The regin of racism must be stopped!
ㅤ
Join us on the 22nd of March and take a stand against discrimination, racism, and fascism - we are the many, and we can win.

𝗡𝗢 𝗣𝗔𝗦𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗡!
