BETWEEN IGNORANCE AND MURDER - RACISM IN TIMES ...

The present work is fundamentally resting on two pillars. First  the international
web-conference on Addressing Contemporary Forms of Racism: Challenges Posed by the Pandemic and
the National Responses organised at Changsha  PRC on July 3rd  2020  hosted by the Human Rights
Center of Central South University  Cross Cultural Human Rights Centre of Vrije University
Amsterdam and China Top Think Tank-Wuhan University Institute of International law. The
conference provided a platform for connecting scholars from different parts of the world  such
as China  the United States  the Netherlands  Germany  South Africa and other countries 
serving well into the future. The presentations given have important theoretical significance
and practical value to eliminate racism and promote inclusiveness for the international
community. Second  the pandemic as point of reference for a new wave of racism and prejudice 
conjoined by especially one case of an attack: the brutal murder of George Floyd by U.S. police
force and bystanders. While this incidence had been not linked to the pandemics as global
threat  it clearly gave evidence of the ongoing parochialism  dominant on the global political
stage. As such  experiencing racism as part of a contemporary global health crisis is going
much beyond its topicality. Thus  also the importance of its analysis cannot be limited to
anti-Chinese sentiments as they are so virulent against the backdrop of the COVID-19
crisis.**********Informations: https:  youtu.be x3BPuuakm_s **********or: http:  www.csuhrc.com
