P. 141
The following poem has been written to address the growing concern
over the presence of racism among individuals working in crucial
sectors such as social services, the police, the NHS, and other
organisations that serve our diverse communities.
It reflects the disturbing reality that some of those entrusted with the
responsibility to protect, serve, and care for all citizens are, in fact,
promoting hatred and inequality through their social media
platforms.
The poem serves as a call to action for each of us to stand against
such behaviour.
If we come across racist or discriminatory posts made by individuals
employed in these sectors, it is our duty to report them to their
employers.
These organisations, committed to upholding the law and ensuring
fair treatment for all, would undoubtedly be concerned to learn that
some of their employees are undermining these values.
By bringing these instances to light, we help ensure that those in
positions of trust are held accountable and that our communities
remain safe and inclusive for everyone.
