Ethnicity

Ethnicity is a risk factor for racist crimes. Although white people can experience racist crimes and harassment, the risks are much higher for non-white groups. Around 4% of black people, 5% of Indians and 8% of Pakistanis and Bangladeshis experienced racist crimes during 1995, compared with 0.5% of white people
