JUDGE HARVEY KENNY

KATRINA GOLDSTONE,

KATRINA GOLDSTONE,

Madam, - The remarks of Judge Harvey Kenny about Nigerians (The Irish Times, January 15th) are offensive and are precisely the kind of careless rhetoric that encourages racist abuse and harassment. The are yet another example of lack of leadership or opposition to racism where it is most needed - from those with power and influence in our society. - Yours, etc.,

KATRINA GOLDSTONE, Anti-Racism Officer, Amnesty International, Fleet Street, Dublin 2.
