Meghan Markle has recently discussed the appalling racist treatment she received during her time as a senior royal. In alignment with its past, this behaviour towards the Duchess becomes part of a long-standing history of the Crown’s anti-blackness and bigotry.

A deportation of 20 people to Jamaica is scheduled for the 2nd December. All call Britain their home and many will be forced to leave children and families behind. Please please please sign the petition and send your local MP’s an email (template will be in bio), head over to @nobordersmcr for more info about what you can do!

The EDI collective stands in solidarity with the trans community, today and every day. If you are the victim of transphobia at University and need someone to talk to, email us at edicollective@gmail.com

The EDI Collective are absolutely disgusted at this incident of racial profiling and offer our solidarity to the student affected and all students who have been affected by incidents of racism within the uni. Our Collective offers support in instances like this so please contact us at edicollective@gmail.com if you ever need to report anything or need someone to talk to. It is not difficult to condemn violence and we don’t understand why the university consistently fails to stand up for their minority students.

Olive Morris dedicated her life to fighting for an equal world. Her efforts in Manchester and Brixton place her firmly in the ranks as one of the most inspirational Black British women throughout history. She was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and sadly passed away at the age of 27 but her accomplishments and legacy lives on and we firmly believe that she’s an incredible figure who should be celebrated by the masses.

We’re looking to expand our team to ensure that each department in SALC is being represented. Please contact us at edi.collective@gmail.com or DM us if you’re interested in being a part of this student led collective. For more info on what the EDI collective is and does please click on the link in our bio!
