About RACISM. IT STOPS WITH ME

The Campaign aims to:
- ensure more Australians recognise that racism is unacceptable in our community
- give more Australians the tools and resources to take practical action against racism
- empower individuals and organisations to prevent and respond effectively to racism.
What you can do to fight racism
Step in and stand up against racism. It shows the target that you don’t support racist behaviour toward them or anyone else.
It is a powerful sign of support. It also makes the perpetrator think twice about what they are saying or doing.
