Preferred term

racism in Northern Ireland  

Definition

  • Northern Ireland is commonly portrayed as a society dominated by tensions between the majority Protestant community and the minority Catholic community. This emphasis tends to overshadow the historical relationship between people of color and the Irish (on both sides of the border) for more than a millennium.
