The Anti-Racism Resource Centre was created by the Community and Race Relations Committee of Peterborough to be a clearinghouse of information related to ending hate crime, racism and discrimination in Peterborough and surrounding areas. The impetus for this website came from a series of racially-motivated attacks on Asian-Canadian anglers in southern and central Ontario in the summer of 2007, attacks which have continued into the summer of 2009 (see http://www.ohrc.on.ca/en/issues/racism/anglerinquiry/anglerinquiry for more information). It is our hope that by facilitating access to justice for victims of racism and hate crime, and providing educational resources on anti-racism to the general population, that the Anti-Racism Online Resource Centre will serve as a valuable tool in creating a more just and inclusive society.
