What to Do About Racist Behaviour?

By: Sarah Clark (ILEX) - Updated: 10 Mar 2024 | comments*Discuss
 
Racist Behaviour Racist Neighbour

It can be incredibly distressing if you are on the receiving end of any kind of racism, especially from neighbours. Thankfully, reported racist behaviour is quite rare in the UK and there are stringent laws in place to ensure that it stays that way.

What’s Considered to be Racist Behaviour?

If you’re a victim of racism or racist behaviour, it means you’ve been treated differently by your neighbours by virtue of your race, colour, nationality, citizenship, or ethnic or national origins. You can even suffer from racial discrimination just because somebody thinks you are a certain race or nationality, even though you’re not. The legal system is a little confusing when it comes to judging what counts as ‘racial’ discrimination, and what’s discrimination due to religious belief. There have been legal cases identifying Romany Gypsies, Jewish people, Sikhs and Irish Travellers as a race, yet Rastafarians and Muslims can complain about discrimination due to religious belief.The kind of racist behaviour you might experience from neighbours could include harassment or intimidation by them, members of their family, their friends or visitors to their home. It includes any type of discrimination against you that’s based on your colour or race.

Racial harassment is anything unwelcome or hostile that happens just because of someone's race, including physical and verbal threats and violence.

Racist Behaviour when you’re Looking for a Home

When you’re looking for somewhere to live, the law ensures that you can’t be refused a home because of your race. It’s illegal for private and social landlords to treat you differently whether favouring another person on a social housing waiting list, refusing to rent to you, or treating you differently once you’ve moved in. A private seller is not allowed to refuse to sell you a property on the grounds of your race either.

Racist Behaviour Once You’ve Moved In

At first, you might not be sure whether you’re actually being discriminated against anyway. It could just be ‘funny looks’ or you could think you’re overhearing people talking about you. Perhaps you get the silent treatment from the locals and you can’t quite put your finger on it?

People can sometimes be suspicious of a new neighbour and so you could try to nip any tensions in the bud by attempting to befriend new neighbours, inviting them round for a cuppa, saying hello at the local shop or school gates. You might find that you were being over sensitive after all and the problem’s solved.

Unfortunately, life’s not always that easy, and sometimes people can be ignorant enough to get involved in racist behaviour against you. Start taking note of specific incidents, what happened, when and where, how often the racism happens, how it affected you and anyone else. If you can establish that the harassment is racially motivated then you may have grounds to make a complaint. If you’re in social housing, most local authorities and housing associations have policies in place to deal with accusations of racist behaviour, which include mediation to start with, but could result in an Anti Social Behaviour Order (ASBO), an Injunction or even eviction. If you own your property your first port of call should be your local police.

Racial Victimisation

If you are forced to make a complaint about any kind of racial discrimination, you shouldn’t be victimised because of it, or treated differently. If things do start to become difficult for you where you live and your neighbours are behaving badly, you could be entitled to get help with any bullying, harassment or worse. Victimising someone who has made a complaint about racism is illegal in itself, and it’s also possible to get protection from discrimination if you’re simply helping another person make a complaint about discrimination, by giving evidence in court for example.

Unusual Cases

A woman from Suffolk was recently accused of racial harassment when she placed an old-fashioned golliwog in her front window. Although the charges were eventually dropped due to insufficient evidence, the woman was arrested after a black neighbour complained that seeing the doll had offended her and her family. Prosecutors said that in order to establish that an offence had been committed, they would have had to prove that the doll had been placed there deliberately by the accused woman, who was alleging that a family member had inadvertently left it there.

If they had been able to prove this, however, it would technically have been possible to convict her of racially aggravated harassment, causing alarm and/or distress.

The problem lies squarely at the councils and police. If you're a victim you literally receive no support. Police shrug you off or downplay any incidents and that's if they bother to attend. Gone are the days when the police do any investigating instead leave it to the victim to gather evidence,notes, recordings and a passport photograph of the offender(s). Councils also provide no help, various website blurb exisits pretending to provide assistance which is of no help in reality. Offenders are usually housed by the council and couldn't care less about making everyone else's life a misery. In short, you're on your own. A brick through the a racists window gets more justice and peace then reporting to the police or council.No wonder the country has gone to crap with crime, racists, drugs and anti social behaviour out of control. Come to the uk, do what you want with no repercussions.

Racist tensions and hostilities would not exist in the UK if not for the government's disasterous multiculturist and failed mass immigration policies and the lurch toward woke ideology. Lack of integration, common civic understanding and values of newcomers with native Brits alike has led to poor cohesion and made race relations much worse. Immigrants that play the racist card are not doing themselves any favours other than increasing distance, suspicion and non acceptance from native brits, leading to polarisation. This country is rapidly becoming a very tense and unpleasant place to live. This cultural disaster is entirely the governments terrible ownership. The real tragedy of all this is that this was all totally avoidable had the quality, numbers, and management of migrants been better handled.

Black People, knows this there are no laws to protect you from racism as out police protects Nazi groups across England,Scotland & Wales all the way to Australia, America and New Zealand. If you have a racist neighbour your property will lose value. One more thing the Europeans don't care about your rights in Africa & have murdered you in your billions over the past 2023 years, 2024 will be no different. The police will continue to protect racist and join racist groups across the UK, America, Australia & New Zealand. Victim support don't support victims of racist hate crimes. Steve Lawrence for example. The Mayhill Riot, Swansea another. The 1919 Race Riots in England & Wales. The Human Zoo's. Peace and tranquility isn't a gift people. The Boar Wars 26 concentration camps more died in Africans than in WWII by the Germans. The UK didn't get rich by hard work, but from racism, this is our history. The Germans copied what we did in South Africa. #Black Lives don't Matter.

@Leela. Those neighbours don't want you there obviously, they are trying to make you're life as difficult as possible until you leave. The problem is do you leave for the best and hand them a symbolic victory, or to do you want to play the long game which may result in the council and police getting involved and a court case to fight going forward?. If they are aggressive that could put you in danger and turn your life upside down. It's a difficult choice to make, no one should be driven out, but unfortunately some people can turn, even for no reason and declare war on you. The only person that can make the call is you. I would personally move.

Since I moved from day one started during my move, the neighbor who lives upstairs at 201 D, has been making racial slurs and faces at me and my friends who were helping me move. At first, I thought I was not sure whether I was actually being discriminated. The ‘funny looks’ and cursing I thought I was justoverhearing her talking about me. I also talk to the neighbor who lives across from my unit, checking in to see if the neighbors or any one was troubled during my move and mentioned about the women who is been cursing me, my kids since my move. The women upstairs would yell at me and my kids saying that you people F smell, you people f stink, you f people smell like poop. She continued to disturb our peace where she would start sweeping the patio if we are sitting on the patio or she would bang the floor at 2:30 am and yell vulgar slurs. When she comes home she sprays air freshener out at the stairs and yell vulgar racist slurs. I was afraid to leave my daughter at home she was scared of all the banging from upstairs as the women will hurt her, so I started taking notes on when, how often and where the racism happened.she is yelling and banging on the floor would try to even capture on the video if I could.

I moved in yesterday to my new home in Leeds. From London. I am from Liverpool originally. I played all day with the children today, gave them bubbles to blow, a picnic blanket, their mother my bbq coals and lighting fluid. We played his and seek and raced. Then the ‘men’ came along later on and bullied me. Because I am white. They intimidated me, laughed at me, verbally abused me, and made me cry. I am 57 and on my own. I just wanted to know and be one of my neighbours.

I live in Prestwich North Manchester, so far we only have one black person living in our neighbourhood, unfortunately he lives next-door to me, he hasn't done me any wrong, but me and my wife don't like foreigners, whether they are born and bred in the UK, I can say that goes for my whole family. We just don't like them.

I'm in a situation in my townhouse complex, where the management teamhas removed my sound proofing.I just found out because after two years of stress and beingscared for my life hearing death treats against me and my family,i have lost so much weight because of the stress they caused me.This is all happening with me not noticing that they remove all my sound proofing. I finally reported this to the new complex manager, and I told him that me and my family are being threatened , he responds back quote You can contact police anytime if you'll be physically attacked.  Why wouldn't he tell me to contact the police no matter what, if some one is threatening you. Then the same day I came home and the sound proofing is back, the smell of new sound proofing is filling my unit, this is how I know they just put new sound proofing back. I am right now shaking while writing this because I'm so scared.Scared for my life. Please help, I live alone and don't know what to do or how or where to report this. Please help I live in etobicoke,Ontario,Canada

I have neighbours which are racist to me because I'm Chinese (They’re white British people) and also a minor. When we first moved into our home, they spray painted our door saying some racist stuff like ‘go back to your country’. We didn't know who did it and just tolerated it. We had a little boy to our left who had always just been a little loud and sometimes kicked their ball at our windows. They didn't do much. We had this other neighbour on the left who at first were passively racist. They started doing petty things like parking in the space in front of our house. So we decided to put cones in front of our house so they didn't park there, but after the first day, they moved those cones to the alley where all the bins were. I got pissed then my mother put a piece of paper saying ‘WHY!’ on their car and they shouted at my mother. My blood was boiling but I stayed silent. I wanted to puncture their guts. Then they continued parking in front of our house and moving our cones which are not even on the road but in front of our house. I never spoke to them. Then today they decided to be petty and took our recycling bin and even scrub off writing that said our house number. My mother was infuriated and I was too. The bin was in front of their door and my mother just took it. One of the neighbours came out and said ‘What are you doing?!’ and started cursing at my mother. I got so enraged that I finally talked back and they said ‘Teach your child some manners’ and we went back into our house. I wanted to say so much more but I didn't. My mother did too but she can't speak English well. Now I'm suspecting that they were the ones who spray-painted our door since they're the only blatantly racist people. I want to report them but we have no camera or proof. So now I decided to sit down and share my experience.

What is best in life?To repeatedly hurl racial slurs at your enemies, to see them apply for welfare, and to hear their lamentations when they realize you’re right about them.

Being racially abused by my neighbours being called derogatory names, threats of physical harm, and harassment.I reported it to both the council and the police but because I am white and they are black it seems no action has been taken and behaviour continues. Even accused me of being a racist because I’ve complained about their music which is on until two or 3 am with bongos and screaming into a microphone but apparently I am the one who is racist because I’ve reported the noise?You couldn’t make this up. It is so bad that I’m moving house.

Since moving into our Cottage on Christmas Eve 2019 our neighbour has been making our stay untenable and unbearable. For the past 15 months, she has been making inflammatory & untoward remarks in the neighbourhood about us. Several of the neighbours when passing our Cottage would stop & exchange pleasantries. Since her nuisance started most now seldom speak to us. Whilst this is something which has not affected our stay at the Cottage, my neighbours continued slander has. We regularly attend Church, several Senior Army Officers’ with who I have served attend Church & reside in the neighbourhood. My wife recently when talking to a friend from Church warned that our neighbour was making unwarranted remarks about us especially me – I am the only coloured & Jewish person in the neighbourhood. Until the Pandemic struck, both my wife & I worked long days…for me a daily commute to Town & my wife, to the NHS Hospital Swindon. Since the enforcement of the pandemic restrictions, I have been working from home except when face-to-face meetings require me to travel. My wife throughout the pandemic has continued to work in the Community & NHS Hospital. We have never approached nor confronted our neighbour regarding her innuendos, she has also placed notes through our letterbox; one such note stated “…people like us are not welcomed in this neighbourhood…”. I was astounded to read its contents and destroyed the note. We never sent a rebuttal or questioned her of the note’s unsavoury contents. A second note, which I have kept, where the neighbour admits to eavesdropping when my wife & I are having private conversations in the garden. This is very unneighbourly & rather alarming that our neighbour purposefully eavesdrops in our private/intimate conversations. She habitually repeats our private conversations in the neighbourhood. This is very disturbing & distasteful. I engaged at great cost a Lawyer to stop my neighbour from the continued unwarranted barrage of defamatory remarks but alas, the neighbour completely disregards my Lawyers letters. My neighbour continues to damage my reputation for which I am unable to do anything...her racist behaviour is distasteful & believe my neighbour to be an uneducated, sad & lonely individual seeking attention...what an awful person! I reported this awful sad, lonely neighbour to the Police, as a last resort, alas, the Police whilst acknowledging my complaint have done nothing...we are now forced to move away from our Cottage.

I came on this site to see if I could get any advice, my neighbour is being racially abused by another neighbour, it's been reported, I've spoken to police, council and our MP, but she no longer feels safe in her own home so is applying for emergency housing. Her family have lived there 12 years. I have lived there 2 and I cannot believe what I have seen. Her health and her families safety come first, but I am angry at the lack of action against the perpetrators. I am ashamed to be white English. To the Romanian lady saying she bought a house in a council estate, I am sorry to say, I live on a council estate and I can agree there seems to be an underbelly of socially inept, ignorant people in these places. They are a hot bed of rascism and alcoholism and abuse, obviously not all, but I live in Norris Green, Liverpool and it is the case. Most white English live on benefits and feel entitled. They cannot understand how someone from another country can get a job, work hard and buy a house or a car. Yet, if they worked they could do the same. I apologise to everyone here for the animalistic behaviour of some horrible white English people. I am not like them. I like to thi k they are a minority but it seems not. Or if they are, they live in groups. Peace be with you all. X
Mitch - 13-Apr-21 @ 6:25 PM
Hi, Last year me and my husband, both Romanians, bought a lovely house in a council area houses. From day 1 we heard talking about us, literally while moving, we not even had a word with them before. Time passed and we were busy enough working long shifts from home, and doing small renovations in our free time. The kids from the area ( loads of kids from small age to 10-11) in first few weeks after moving , throwed with eggs in our cars and house windows, than with mud in the back windows, than.with stones, and then started to play ball in the outside wall(aka living room wall) with a golf ball?!? Few times went outside and explained them that is not nice to play ball in my living room wall as I live there and working from home and specially with a golf ball. All the time politely and calm, not even raised the voice...and now... because we told them not to play ball in the wall we started to receive 'the look' and we could hear them again calling us names and swearing us. As we are working both from home, both our cars are almost all time parked in front of the house, in a designed car parking area, and things started to happen. My husband's rear wiper car was took off and broke; after I've washed my car, next day, the top was full of mustard,mayo and bacon...and yesterday my husband's car was vandalized with fence paint. Most of my lady neighbors were home, outside having a daily chit chat - kids all around in the area, all going back and forwards around the car while I was vacuuming inside the car that was vandalised; could hear them laughing and their comments. At one point after I finished vacuuming wanted to.wash it a bit too, when I've seen the fence paint on my white car over the front....I usually don't confront people but this time, went to ask, as they were all this time out, if they saw any of their kids playing with paint as someone just throw paint on my car while vacuuming inside and immediately 2 of the so called ladies started to scream that wasn't them, call me names and saying f***ing Romanians, go back from where you camed, if you had money to buy the house, paint your car...and they didn't stopped for at least 2 hours mocking me...swearing,even kids calling me names and trying to intimidate me. When finally realized it's me against them, they see us as an intruder in this community of them,it was too late, they literally started to talk loud,scream and do a show on the street. I'm thinking of putting a complain about it, but I'm too afraid to do so... Besides I'm stressed, terrified now, I'm also afraid to go outside :( Everytime I've done garden work I could hear them talking about us, and swearing. Tomorrow cctv cameras will be installed and hopefully they will leave us alone. Unfortunately police is useless, they still think they can sort out these type of situation just talking with them :(
Cris85 - 13-Apr-21 @ 8:10 AM
Everyone keeps talking about being racist. I have lived in my home for 5 years and two of those years have been hell. There's a ratchet woman that lives next door with her horrible children, they constantly harass anyone that is white. If we say anything about it they call us racist. They only target white people. They think when black people harass white people, it is not racist or a problem. The police stated that we should leave.

Hello, I have lived at my residence for many many years have had a very good repo with all my neighbors, last year one of my neighbors accused us of doing something which in the many years that we have live here have never done never done, we asked why they would say that, they stated someone told them, but they would not say who so that we could comfort them, from that point arguments occurred about 3x, that was last year around April, recently every time we came out of ours house the neighbor stated with “Racial Slurrs” number 1 we are too old for this and should not have to endure situations like this, to me it is just plan ignorance to do something like this. The last thing the neighbor said was that “Our time is coming”, which to me is a threat. I am a Law Abiding Citizen, pay taxes, don’t live of the government, we don’t look for trouble however, we now feel that we will have to defend ourselves, we don’t condon violence but I feel that it could result to that. At this point it just makes me sick to even think about it or everytime we step outside what to expect. I don’t want to sell my house I like where I am at, Also, we have went to file a police complaint so it is on record. Another over the years these were our favorite neighbors we use exchange gifts, invite to parties everything, cooked, spend the day together you name it we did it. They really have shown that they are truly racist the true colors came out. Thanks for listening

Hi, I really sympathise with all the comments. Being British Chinese means I get to see the worse in people. In all instances of moving house, it has always been white English people behaving appallingly and in a racist manner towards my family. Whilst sitting in the garden, I don't even get any peace as their children kick the ball at the fence and call me names like 'chink'. We have had to deal with noisy neighbours having parties all night and thinking it is perfectly acceptable. Finally we have moved to a detached house, and although not perfect it allows some breathing space. Good luck
