The first issue of Stolen Tools, the Anti-Racist journal, will launch on June 20th 📆
Stolen Tools was inspired by a reflective practice group on racism by young academics in the Health Inequalities Research Group at @KingsCollegeLon

In June 2020, our branch endorsed @kcldecol statement for Black lives. We welcomed KCL's professed commitment to eradicating racism, but we called on it to address the continuing legacies of colonialism and imperialism within and outside our campuses that perpetuate racism.

Despite Goldsmiths professed commitment to decolonisation, the 9 academic staff who’ve received dismissal notices have been targeted precisely because they work on subjects like Islamic history, the Modern Middle East, Arab and African migrant literature. Support @GoldsmithsUCU!

The detail of who has been targeted for redundancy at Goldsmiths and what it means in the bigger picture is laid out in this statement goldsmithsucu.org/2022/04/29/guc…

In summer 2020 15k KCL students signed a petition calling for removal of Guy's statue who made millions through the slave trade. The interim Principal said students should "walk around the statue" instead. Is colonialism still alive at KCL? Come at 11:30am tomorrow to find out!
