'Racism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism or Islamophobia are poisoning our societies' – UN chief
Urging people everywhere to speak out against hate speech and hate crimes, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres today reiterated his call for tolerance, respect for the other and the importance of recognizing diversity.
“Racism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism or Islamophobia are, as I mentioned yesterday, poisoning our societies,” the Secretary-General told journalists today at a briefing at the UN Headquarters in New York.
“It is absolutely essential for us all to stand up against them everywhere and every time,” he added.
