Edinburgh University is one of many institutions across Great Britain currently reviewing its significant role in the promotion of white supremacy/racism and endorsement of African enslavement.

Decolonising is criticised as 'woke' and dismissed as delusional by those who don't want us to understand how European colonialism embedded systemic racism in "all areas of people activity - economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex and war" -(Dr Frances Cress Welsing, The Isis Papers, 1991). To be authentically anti-racist, we need to understand what racism is and how it works, which is why decolonising our minds and applying that knowledge, is vital for all activists fighting social injustice - "If you do not understand white supremacy (Racism) - what it is, and how it works - eveyrthing else that you understand, will only confuse you"(Neely Fuller Jr. 1971).

Led by activist, public speaker, organiser, and decolonial researcher Marsha Garratt, this online workshop reviews how to decolonise, including the pain, embarrassment, frustration, stagnation, isolation, and anger that come when developing anti-racist thinking.

Using research from her book - 'So now I'm 'mixed-race'? Understanding Black mixed people, white supremacy, and resistance' (due to be published later this year), Marsha shares how she uses decolonial research to resist internalising white supremacist teaching, and celebrate the personal liberation gained by confronting the truth. This workshop is not to be missed!
