Racism in the UK: British kids tell us about their experiences

Huge protests have taken place in towns and cities all across the UK this month against racism.

They started after the death of an African-American man called George Floyd, who was stopped and pinned down by police in the US city of Minneapolis.

But racism, and the inequalities it can cause, exist in the UK too, and many people are now speaking up, saying something needs to be done about it.

Amari, Eli, Ayisha, Hadija, Rakelmi, Zakiyah, Lydia, Orin and Sienna have been telling Newsround how they feel about what's been going on.
