This week the Welsh government released an “Action Plan to Combat Racism” that includes Black Panther quotes and calls for racial quotas in government.
The decentralized Labor Party-led government led by First Minister Mark Drakeford has this week issued a comprehensive “plan of action” to make the British nation an “anti-racist country”, pledging to tackle rampant and systemic racism in Welsh schools, workplaces and hospitals. ” “. society in 2030
Announcing allegations of “everyday racism”, including school bullying and mispronunciation of foreign teachers’ names, the government document promises to “create a culture of zero tolerance for racism and change our systems and institutions to “eliminate” racism. “.
With a clear nod to the report’s leftism, the government quoted the slogan of the Marxist-Leninist paramilitary group Black Panthers: “If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. ”
To realize the ostensibly vision of a more equal society, the plan aims to establish an ethnic minority quota of all civil servants of 20% by 2026 and to eliminate the so-called “ethnic pay gap” by 2050.
However, this does mean that minorities will be overrepresented in government, as the last census in 2011 showed 95.6% of the population of Wales to be white.

The Welsh Government also plans to provide “anti-racist education” in educational institutions to create “a safe, positive and inclusive environment for all staff and students”.
The newspaper argued that previous attempts to eradicate so-called racism in Wales had failed because they focused on “fixing” problems with ethnic minorities.
Rather, the government is now trying to address “historical power imbalances between whites and ethnic minorities” and “resolve how racism is rooted in organisations.”
“The legacy of racism continues,” the statement said.
Justifying the “unprecedented” approach, Race Council Wales founder and CEO Uzo Iwobi told the BBC this week: “We feel like we are looking at the life experiences of ethnic minority communities for the first time. .
“It tries to understand the root causes of racism, to look at the truth: How do we rule people? How do we manage people? How do we work with others to deliver more equitable, authentic and inclusive public services? ”
