New Report Reveals Experiences of Unequal Treatment by Gardaí amongst African and Brazilian Communities
Dublin, Ireland — Monday 31 March
A new landmark research study by the Irish Network Against Racism (INAR) and published today by the Policing Authority reveals that people of African descent and Brazilians in Ireland report widespread discriminatory policing, racial profiling, and a deep lack of trust in An Garda Síochána.
INAR launched the report of its 2020 findings from the iReport.ie racist incident reporting system. With the total number of incidents reaching 700 (there were 530 in 2019), the system also recorded 159 Criminal incidents, a record 51 racist assaults and a record 594 hate speech incidents.
