Keynote by speaker Atilla Yoldas: Racism & Anti-Racism

One in ten Swedes has been a victim of a hate crime. 70% of hate crimes are related to racism. It affects those who have a different origin, language, pronunciation, or skin color.

From everyday racism and discrimination in schools and on the job to violent hate crimes – racism is deeply rooted in all parts of our society. Ethnicity is the most common reason why children and young people are harassed in schools and also the reason why many adults aren't even called for job interviews.

Atilla has grown up in the racism of Sweden. At the same age that his childhood friends learned to spell their names, Atilla was called racist slurs. The unfair yardstick by which he, his family, and many others with an immigrant background are judged has no place in a democratic society, whether it manifests in schools, workplaces, or in the streets.

In this anti-racist keynote, Atilla talks about the boy within him who carries scars from a structure that we have the power to change together. He paints a picture of how racism functions today and provides different tools to combat it in various layers of society. In a country that should be one of the most equal, we still have a long way to go before anti-racism becomes irrelevant.

Atilla's lectures with us were extremely good. The content aligned well with both the description of it and our expectations. The presentation was tailored to the very diverse audience we had. Atilla could explain his reasoning in a simple way that both students, professionals, and the general public could understand and absorb the information. After the lecture, I received feedback from various sources with praise and comments that it was one of the best lectures these well-educated professionals working with domestic violence victims had attended. We would gladly book Atilla again!
