Porco Dio presents a benefit for Residents Against Racism :

About Residents Against Racism:
The rise of racism in Ireland in recent years has been actively aided and abetted by the state. Ministers and TDs have whipped up racist prejudice to divert the blame from themselves for the problems faced by Irish society. Government response to those fleeing political and economic injustice has been to deport them as quickly as possible, with little regard for their rights under international law. Gardai and other state officials have been guilty of racist abuse, both physical and verbal.

Residents Against Racism was set up to fight against state racism, and to oppose all manifestations of racism. In recent years we have successfully campaigned in support of refugees facing deportation, Garda frame-ups and other forms of harassment from the state.
