⁉️Roma people lost EU representation and for other groups experiencing racism, it also looks like the parties forgot about a huge percentage of our population! Where will this Parliament go concerning inclusive policies when that little representation we’ve had vanished⁉️

A story that began with a disturbing anecdote from an African reporter, laughed at in a Dutch job centre, ended with @LHReports biggest data investigation into structural discrimination in Europe. A thread 🧵

Last week we presented findings at the EP from a research we did for @ENAREurope in view of the upcoming #EUElections2024 and some of it made it here 👇@deivgenes @tommasibea @MGraziaMontella @SahizerSamuk @tinailaria

The proportion of racialised MEPs @Europarl_EN looks set to dip below current 3.3% vs estimated 10% of population. Factors include Brexit, fewer seats for progressives, less focus on racial justice, say @JuliePascoet @ENAREurope & @tinailaria @IntegrimLab

Delighted to see @EUAntiRacism @MarionLalisse and @EUAntisemitism granted upgraded status as part of EU's ongoing efforts to combat hate. Congrats to them! However, much work remains to ensure approach is consistent, comprehensive, and addresses all forms of racism equally!

While welcoming the decision to upgrade the three existing anti-racism coordinators, we urge the @EU_Commission to eradicate any doubt that hierarchies of discrimination exist when combatting discrimination ‼️ @vonderleyen @JosepBorrellF @helenadalli

We are far from being #UnitedInDiversity. Black people continue to be one of the most discriminated groups in EU. New report from
@EURightsAgency shows anti-Black racism is pervasive in all areas of life. We need structural solutions to tackle #structuralracism

What does being Black in the EU mean?
A new #EURightsAgency report reveals widespread racism, harassment & discrimination. It also points to rising inequalities at work, education & housing.

‼️ Any 'solution' that involves disproportionately and violently targeting refugees depending on their origin should not even be on the table for a political entity that has built its whole identity on the idea of solidarity.
