Topic
The Struggle for Migrant and Racial Justice in Britain: Lessons from History
Date & Time
Selected Sessions:
Feb 18, 2021 06:00 PM
Description
From the mid-20th Century, Britain was home to numerous movements for racial and migrant justice. These movements made significant contributions to challenging racism in Britain, whilst being instrumental to the anti-colonial struggle for freedom taking place internationally.
Is this history relevant to us today, and how? This webinar, part of the #SolidarityKnowsNoBorders series, will examine how this history can inform struggles for justice today. It will seek to draw inspiration, principles, and practical ideas from these experiences and consider how they can contribute to movement building efforts currently underway under the banner of the Fair Immigration Reform Movement (FIRM) Charter.
The Charter is a collective list of demands and principles uniting organisations and groups in Britain calling for comprehensive reform to the current immigration system, and is a starting point for building a nationwide movement that can bring these demands into being: www.firmcharter.org.uk
