A few years later, the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination came into force.

They represent the worst of humanity.<\/p>\n<p>But they are not accidents. They are part of a continuum of racism that begins with small things: stereotyping, suspicious looks, questions like: where are you really from? These micro-aggressions may not always lead to human rights abuses. But they can create the conditions for violations.<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>Last year, the General Assembly decided that this meeting should focus on countering nationalist populism and supremacist ideologies.<\/p>\n<p>The Special Rapporteur on racism has reported on the rise of racist propaganda in all regions.

Across the world, populists are exploiting the legitimate grievances of those who feel left behind. We must increase our efforts to make the Sustainable Development Goals a reality for all people, everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>But we must not legitimize hate speech. We must push back against those who blame our problems on migrants. We must ensure short-sighted nationalism does not derail global solutions. The challenges we face require global co-operation like never before. No country can address issues such as climate change alone.<\/p>\n<p>Multilateralism makes us stronger, not weaker. The 2030 Agenda is a framework all governments can use to respond to the needs and aspirations of their citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>Racism has always co-opted the discourse of the day, from the pseudo-religious justification of colonial oppression to the pseudo-scientific Nazi doctrines of racial superiority. Today, the language of human rights is being co-opted. Freedom of expression is used as an excuse to disseminate hate.<\/p>\n<p>Freedom of expression is a fundamental human right. It is a powerful tool to fight racism. But trolling does not support freedom of expression. It stifles it.<\/p>\n<p>Hate speech isn\u2019t free speech. It\u2019s racism.<\/p>\n<p>Dear friends,<\/p>\n<p>Words can kill but they can save lives too.<\/p>\n<p>I commend the Prime Minister of New Zealand for speaking out against hate speech in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Christchurch. I commend the Secretary-General\u2019s plans to create a system-wide strategy on hate speech. And I commend this Assembly for reaffirming its commitment to the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action last year.<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>Later today, we will commemorate the victims of slavery and the transatlantic slave trade. As we enter the fourth year of the Decade for People of African Descent, we must do more to address the impact of our past on people and institutions today. For example, Africa and the Caribbean are underrepresented in international institutions. The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ\u2019s 75<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary next year could be an opportunity to address this.<\/p>\n<p>Dear friends,<\/p>\n<p>Many heroes have spoken in this Hall, including Nelson Mandela, whose centenary we marked last year. \u00a0But I want to end by quoting a fictional superhero \u2013 T\u2019Challa who spoke these words in the movie <em>Black Panther<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence.
