Racial equality is important every day of the year. However, certain dates offer unique chances to raise awareness and inspire change. For example, the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, observed on 21st March, encourages people to reflect on global efforts against racial injustice. Similarly, Stephen Lawrence Day, held on 22nd April, is a powerful reminder of the ongoing need for social justice. Furthermore, Windrush Day, celebrated on 22nd June, honours the significant contributions of the Windrush generation to British society.These dates are excellent opportunities to discuss racial equality and promote meaningful change.
