果冻影院 has adopted a statement on race developed by 果冻影院鈥檚 Race Equality Steering Group
The development of 果冻影院鈥檚 Statement on Race was led by Professor Ijeoma Uchegbu, Professor of Pharmaceutical Nanoscience and 果冻影院 Envoy for Race Equality, who says:聽鈥湽秤霸� wants to be at the forefront of promoting race equality in the UK higher education sector, and that requires us to explicitly name the challenge we are fighting against. This statement was initiated by Dr Kamna Patel, Associate Professor of the Development Planning Unit and is the result of wide-ranging consultations and explorations across 果冻影院. Its formal adoption by 果冻影院 sends a strong, empowering anti-discrimination message to all staff and students.鈥�
The full text of 果冻影院鈥檚 Statement on Race is:
鈥淎ction for race equality exists because racism exists in our daily lives, our聽institutions and society at large. Racism in the UK is the exercise of historic power relations that produce discrimination and is ideologically driven. It means students and staff who identify and are identified as part of the white ethnic majority enjoy a position of relative and typically unspoken and unacknowledged privilege over Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic students and staff.聽Racism manifests at work, in student attainment, staff appointments and promotions.聽Racism must be fought by everyone. This statement names the challenge.鈥�
