Racism. Get Up. Speak Out

When have you stood up to racism? Although unacceptable in our community, racism is widespread and affects many individuals in the City of Greater Dandenong.

Have you witnessed racist behaviours or racial discrimination? One in seven Australians say they experience discrimination because of their colour or background.

Racism. Get Up. Speak Out. is a community project that encourages local people to speak out against racism. The experiences shared will contribute to a collection of anecdotes, stories and films that celebrate the positive action people take when they witness racist behaviour. This website features some of the stories of local people who are speaking out against racism.
