ABSTRACT
At Burnage High School in Manchester, England, in 1986, Ahmed Ullah, a 13-year old Asian boy was murdered in the playground by a white teenager who had a history of bullying and disruptive behaviour. For many ethnic minority children, racist intimidation and bullying is the gauntlet that they have to run in the classroom, the playground and the world at large on a daily basis; incidents like the murder of Ahmed Ullah stand as a symbol of what could happen to them. 1
