Equinox is a European anti-racism organization,[1] launched in March 2021 with the support of the European Commissioner Helena Dalli.[2] Equinox was co-founded by Alfiaz Vaiya[3] and Sarah Chander.[4] The Ireland-based human rights activist Bulelani Mfaco is also a member of Equinox.[5]

Representatives of Equinox denounced police violence in the EU towards racialised minorities. Equinox considered that the EU authorities did not sufficiently support civil society organizations combating racism.[6] In March 2021 Equinox put forward a blueprint for reforms recommended to fight structural racism at the EU level.[7]

At the occasion of the 20-year anniversary of EU's Racial Equality Directive, Equinox criticized the legislation for being insufficient to address structural racism, as it is narrowly focused on individual acts of racism.[8]
