What do you do if you see, or experience a hate crime? With the rise of unprovoked, racially motivated attacks in both Australia and abroad, it's the difficult question on everyone's minds. In this episode, we chat with Professor Gail Mason from the Sydney Law School, who specialises in criminology, and the study of hate crime. We examine both the existing legislation, the ways in which it may factor into our lives, and the support that we still need to provide to marginalised communities. Footnotes is a podcast created by the Sydney University Law Society; for students, by students, and available wherever you get your podcasts.
