Racism in Australia: How the Racism Register Fights Back

Season 6 Episode 3

The Racism Register is a platform for people to share their experiences of racism in Australia, and for those witnessing racist incidents to report them as well. It was co-founded by Elizabeth Lang and Elizabeth Tekanyo — both experienced in anti-racism training — after constantly getting the question, “If racism is so prevalent, where is the data?” 

The co-founders explained how the Register works, why silence remains a major barrier to tackling racism, and how the data they’re collecting could drive meaningful change across Australia.
