Racial and Ethnic Harassment Laws

Racial and ethnic harassment laws are designed to protect individuals from bullying and mistreatment based on their race or ethnicity. These laws prohibit behaviors that create a hostile or intimidating environment, such as derogatory remarks, threats, or physical attacks. They apply in schools, workplaces, and public spaces. If someone experiences such harassment, they can report it to authorities or seek legal recourse. The goal of these laws is to ensure everyone can feel safe and respected, regardless of their racial or ethnic background.
