Sarah Woolley BFAWU general secretary
Denis Goddard French anti racist activist

On Saturday 5 February trade unionists and workplace activists from across Britain will come together at the ‘Fighting for anti racist workplaces’ conference - hosted by the TUC and Stand Up To Racism - to talk about how we oppose the government’s racist offensive.
Boris Johnson and Priti Patel’s Nationality and Borders bill is attempting to effectively remove the right to seek asylum in Britain while the scapegoating of refugees and migrants continues. The government’s CRED report denied the reality of institutional racism exposed by the Black Lives Matter movement, despite the massively disproportionate death rate amongst black front line workers and communities.
The government’s new police bill targets BLM activists and the GRT community and strengthens police powers despite the ongoing reality of black communities facing disproportionate use of stop and search and deaths in police contact.
The government is playing the game of divide and rule, attempting to fool working people that ‘others’ - migrants, refugees and Muslims - are to blame for the problems in our society.
This ‘divide and rule’ strategy legitimises racism and risks opening the door to the racist and fascist right.
We need to take up these arguments in our workplaces and build the unity we need to oppose racism and austerity.
The conference will discuss how we do this and how to maximise the trade union turnout at UN antiracism day events initiated by Stand Up To Racism and also supported by the TUC.Показать больше

When Boris Johnson rolled out the red carpet for the far-right Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán earlier this year, it was clear that he saw no problem in normalising an antisemitic, Islamophobic, anti-LGBT, anti-roma authoritarian who is ruling by decree.

This, along with the resurgence of Le Pen in France as well as Macron's own racist actions, statements by Jair Bolsonaro that he intends to rule Brazil even if he loses next year's elections, is one of many signs that although Trump is no longer US President, the racist right remains a major international threat.

This international plenary will hear speakers from across Europe including Sandor Szöke, (Hungary), Martvs Chagas (Brazil), Marwan Muhammad (France), Cornelia Kerth (Germany) and Petros Constantinou (Greece) on their struggle against racism & the far-right in their countries.

The global Black LIves Matter movement is fighting, and in some areas winning on key issues such as racist policing, reparations and decolonising education. We're delighted that Trevor Prescod, an MP from Barbados will talk about the struggle of Caribbean countries for reparations, including those owed by Conservative MP Richard Drax. Elise Bryant, Coalition of Labor Women President will bring sollidarity from the US Black Lives Matter Movement.

The humanitarian situation facing refugees, especially those fleeing Afghanistan is at the centre of all our thoughts, and Mohammad Asif, Director Afghan Human Rights Foundation will talk about the importance of fighting internationally and especially in Britain for refugees to be provided safe haven.

Following the rise in racist attacks since the start of COVID-19 including the horrific far-right terrorist attack in Atlanta this year in which 8 people were killed, Zoe Reed from the Society for Anglo-Chinese Understanding will join the session to discuss working across communities and the labour movement to join the struggle against the rising wave of hate crime against Chinese, East and South-East asian communities with the fight to stop the tide of racist, Islamophobic, antisemitic and anti-Roma hate crime.

We're also joined by leading anti-racists in Britain such as Bell Ribeiro Addy MP, Shavanah Taj (Wales TUC Gen Sec), Anum Qaisar-Javed MP, & more to discuss how those in Britain can link up with international movements.Показать больше

1 Year On From George Floyd's Murder - #BlackLivesMatter - We Need Action Now

With leading anti-racists & justice campaigners from Britain & the US [...]

With leading anti-racists & justice campaigners from Britain & the US including:

Diane Abbott MP • Kehinde Andrews, Author of “The New Age of Empire'' & Profesor of Black Studies • Victor Sylvester, Roger Sylvester Justice Campaign • Elise Bryant, Coalition of Labour Women President & United Against Hate (US) • Aman Ali, Head of Community Engagement & Development at MEND • Bell Ribiero-Addy MP • Cammilla Mngaza, Free Siyanda Campaign • Lawrence Davies, Equal Justice solicitor for Belly Mujinga case • Anna Rothery, Lord Mayor of Liverpool • Shaka Hislop, ex footballer & Show Racism The Red Card ambassador • Natasha, All Black Lives UK • Andrew Boateng, campaigner who was accosted by police while cycling with his son • Rev Kobi Little, President of the Baltimore NAACP • Ryan Colaço, campaigner and target of racist stop & search • Sabby Dhalu & Weyman Bennett, Co-convenors of Stand Up to Racism

The murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer a year ago sparked a historic wave of global protests and a massive upsurge in the #BlackLivesMatter movement.

Without that movement, Derek Chauvin would likely have never appeared in court, and George Floyd's family would never have obtained justice. The movement also played a major role in the defeat of Donald Trump, the world's no 1 racist.

But structural racism and police violence is far from over.

In Britain, Black people are nine times more likely to face stop and search than white people - 18 times more likely under Section 60, where no reasonable suspicion is required.

The COVID-19 Crisis has disproportionately affected BAME communities in a huge way medically and economically, with thousands of preventable deaths and hundreds of thousands more forced into poverty.

Most shamefully, there is the endless list of deaths in police custody - where no British police officer has ever faced prosecution.

Instead of addressing this, the British Government responded to the #blacklivesmatter movement by launching a major racist offensive with a ‘Race Report’ that denies the reality of institutional racism, a Police and Crime bill targeting antiracists and a wave of legislation attacking refugee and migrant rights.Показать больше

Stand Up To Racism National Education Union (NEU) Fringe Meeting: After Johnson's Race Commission - Fighting for Anti Racist Education

TONIGHT! Wednesday 7 April - 5pm

Speakers:

Kevin Courtney Joint General Secretary NEU * Diane Abbott MP * Professor Gus John award winning writer & education campaigner * Griffiths Nguete NEU Rep and English Teacher Daniel Kebede Senior Vice President NEU * Reem Kadhim one of the student organisers of the protest and walk out at Pimlico Academy over racist uniform policy * Weyman Bennett co convenor Stand Up To Racism

Chair Venda Premkumar Joint branch & district secretary Redbridge NEU

Boris Johnson’s race commission has caused outrage by its denial in of the realities of institutional racism - and its undermining of attempts to examine the legacy of Britain’s history of slavery and colonialism.

The fact that the Commission considered imposing its ‘truth’ about Britain on teachers and students through a government approved textbook is even more concerning.

After a year of pandemic that has hit black communities disproportionately and in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement, the government is determined to deny the reality of racism.

It has targeted the BLM movement in its new police bill, while stoking up the scapegoating of refugees and migrants with Priti Patel’s new asylum legislation.

But whatever the government says - as events at Pimlico school in London have so recently shown - the need to fight for anti acist education and to combat institutional racism is more important than ever.
