Facebook has updated its rules to tackle posts containing depictions of "blackface" and common anti-Semitic stereotypes.
Its Community Standards now explicitly state such content should be removed if used to target or mock people.
The company said it had consulted more than 60 outside experts before making the move.
But one campaigner said she still had concerns about its wider anti-racism efforts.
