Message from Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination 21 March 2010

[18 March 2010] Worldwide, Social and Human Sciences

  This day marks the 50th anniversary of a tragic moment in human civilisation, when police gunned down 69 anti-Apartheid demonstrators in the South African township of Sharpville. That massacre appalled the world. To make sure it would never be forgotten, in 1966 the United Nations designated March 21 the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.
