Anti-racism resources

As a University we are committed to becoming an actively anti-racist institution. We recognise that further work needs to be done and that this is a process that will take time as well as meaningful action and change.

We have created a list of some resources on anti-racism so that our Keele community can learn more about racism and its effects.

Please note that some of the resources may contain explicit language and upsetting scenes.
