We need to stop talking about race!

Ndidi is exhausted that race is still framed as a topic of debate. She wants to stop talking about race, and focus on lived experiences of people from Black, Asian, and ethnic minorities to better understand and improve experiences for young people and adults. We are joined by Jon Cornejo who is an anti-racism consultant, as well as an organiser at Charity So White. Amjad Ali is our second guest – the Co-Founder of BAMEed, a movement initiated in response to the continual call for intersectionality and diversity in the education sector. The group discuss how we need to reframe the conversation, how it compares to gender-based violence, and how the idea of race is flawed. Be prepared to be challenged, and to learn a lot from the experts! This week’s #AskYouth question is “Do you think we need to talk more about race? Why? – we talk to a 13-year-old rep from Brent Youth Parliament, as well as an 18-year-old student and activist. Like educational podcasts? You’re bound to learn something new on every episode of #AreYouConvinced.
