Teach British Schools About Anti-Racism
Teach British Schools About Anti-Racism
Why this petition matters
We call for the school curriculum to be amended to educate all school children in the United Kingdom about the existence of racism in the UK and how to combat this.
Educate young people on the very prevalent suffering and injustices, as well as the systematic oppression many people of colour face in the United Kingdom. Teach the youth how to spot racism, and how to act against it. We need to accept Britains past, and openly discuss this. Explore the roots of racism in the UK today, understand and explain how to overcome them. We need to discuss how to make amends, and let young people contribute to the conversation.
The most valuable source of education comes from those who have experienced racism. Provide resources to young people to educate themselves further. Do not let our education system become biased.
We can only progress if we educate.
