The Pending Anti-Racist Agenda in Spanish Public Media

• Criticism of the lack of anti-racist perspectives in Spanish public media and the uncritical amplification of racist discourses.
• Media lack of diversity leads to the exclusion of marginalized groups and reinforces racist stereotypes.
• The 'More Diversity in Public Media' campaign, targeting the broadcaster À Punt, is demanding workforce diversity and inclusive reporting.

Media Responsibility and Racism

• Journalists must stop acting as megaphones for the far-right without challenging or analyzing the falsity of their claims.
• Media outlets often prioritize sensationalism over addressing structural racism, ignoring systemic issues.

The Need for Diversity

• Integrating professionals from diverse ethnic backgrounds into newsrooms is crucial for richer, more respectful, and less stereotypical reporting.
• Greater diversity would help introduce underreported topics into the news cycle, such as:
  • The exploitation of Moroccan female farm workers in Huelva.
  • Police raids based on racial profiling.
  • Racial discrimination in the housing market.
  • The 'blackface' controversy in Alcoy’s Three Kings Parade.

Future Objectives

• There is a call to adopt a 'Diversity Plan' across Spain, following the model of 3Cat, the only autonomous broadcaster with such a framework.
• Activists highlight that important dates, such as the anniversary of the Roma arrival in Valencia or International Afro-descendant Women's Day, remain largely ignored by public media.
• Non-minority journalists are urged to reflect on their own ethnocentric biases and silent complicity in sustaining structural racism, emphasizing that cultural struggle is inseparable from broader social justice movements.
