Submission: Inquiry into Racial vilification law in NSW (2013)

In the year of 2011-2012, 6.1% of Redfern Legal Centre’s clients identified as being Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander and 30.6% were of culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. 

Our clients bring to us their life experience of discrimination and vilification. Racial profiling and stereotyping continues to influence how they are provided with services, education, employment, access to premises and policing, as well as how they are treated by neighbours and others in the community.
