“Fratelli Tutti” is the title of the encyclical, or particular education document, which the pope published last year amid the COVID-19 pandemic to press for solidarity, family and care for the environment worldwide.

In his tweet, Francis cited no particular case of racism or place. Throughout his papacy, he has championedin the rights of marginalised people in societies, including migrants.

The annual U.N. ceremony on March 21 falls on the anniversary of the day that police in Sharpeville, South Africa, burst fire and killed 69 people at a peaceful explanation against apartheid laws in 1960.
