“My experience of a life impacted by racism and racial discrimination and inequality, and the indignity that goes with it, was sufficient motivation for me to take the opportunity to be part of efforts towards eliminating racism in the context of law enforcement”, said Yvonne Mokgoro, Chair of the International Independent Expert Mechanism to Advance Racial Justice and Equality in the context of Law Enforcement. Mokgoro was part of a dialogue with member States on racism and racial injustice during a meeting of the Human Rights Council – which featured for the first time people directly affected by such injustice addressing the Council.
