This powerful documentary follows pop star Leigh-Anne Pinnock as she confronts her experience as the only black member of Little Mix, and as a black woman in the music industry. Leigh-Anne talks about the racism she experienced growing up.

This guide by Alana Lentin & Debbie Bargallie has been created to give the user tools to understand the history and sociology of race, racism, and antiracism.

These concepts contribute to enhancing racial literacy in society.

This guide outlines why anti-racist approaches are important in curriculum development and explores the barriers that have hampered race equality in education.

Whilst this guide is primarily focused on school based learning, it has some useful information learning for all educators, and states that "Curriculum development is only one of many areas where anti-racist approaches are needed in schools. Anti-racist approaches to parental engagement, teaching diversity and anti-bullying work are just a few examples. We hope that this guide is a valuable addition to your wider professional learning and development on race and racism."

This website provides tools, workshops and ideas to support Early Years practitioners and educators in Scotland to build an anti-racist curriculum which responds positively to the diverse needs of individual learning where all cultures, religions, identities and languages are recognised and valued.

The materials have been developed in partnership with a racially diverse group of children, young people and educators across different sectors of Scottish Education.

This unit is for all educators who want to make a start at understanding what anti-racism is and how educators, learners, allies and individuals with lived experience of racism can start our anti-racist journey, as individuals, communities and wider society.

This toolkit is designed to be used with young people aged 11+ to stimulate discussion, thought and reflection around key themes such as identity, belonging, diversity and community. 

Actively addressing these issues encourages young people to build meaningful relationships with their peers and develop a strong sense of their identity, therefore reducing the risk posed by extremist narratives. 

Activities require minimal resources to enable them to be used in a variety of settings such as centre based, detached, schools and one to one work. 

This web based report presents census data on religion, ethnic group, country of birth, national identity and language. These statistics show how Scotland, its people and its culture are changing. Key themes include migration and Scotland’s ageing population.

NMAAHC's offerings for educators are designed to stimulate new ways of thinking and cultivate a passion for lifelong learning. 

In fostering spaces of inclusion and belonging, it is important to recognise, name, and address when individuals or groups with marginalised identities are experiencing harm, such as bias or discrimination. The concepts of "calling out" or "calling in" have become popular ways of thinking about how to bring attention to this type of harm. Knowing the difference between these concepts can help us reflect, then act, in the ways we feel will best promote constructive change.

The Black History Month programme in Scotland has been organised every year by the Coalition for Racial Equality and Rights since 2001. In Scotland, Black History Month has historically encompassed “the history of African, Caribbean and Asian people in this country; people who often have a direct link with Scotland through slavery, colonialism and migration. Black History Month focuses on people whose sacrifices, contributions and achievements against a backdrop of racism, inequality and injustice are often forgotten about.” Some nations and organisations celebrating Black History Month, however, focus only on the history of people of African and Caribbean descent.

fostering an understanding of racial literacy is more than just an educational goal—it's a necessity for building inclusive and anti-racist learning environments. Educators have an opportunity to shape young minds to navigate and understand the complexities of race, identity, and systemic inequality. To support this crucial work, we've curated a collection of racial literacy resources designed specifically for educational settings. These resources, ranging from lesson plans to free professional development webinars, are selected to not only deepen understanding but also to empower students to engage in meaningful discussions about race and antiracism.

Whilst these resources were designed for school aged children, they can be used/adapted for adults

Parents and caregivers must actively learn about race, equity, and justice and understand how racism impacts our society. When adults understand racism in our society, they can then teach their children. When children have this knowledge, they can aid in building a more equitable society for all of us (NAEYC). This resource list can help parents and caregivers begin their journey in understanding racism, but anti-racist work must be attended to in an ongoing way.

Because race is part of our public conversation and integrated into so many aspects of our world, young people want to and should be part of that conversation, no matter their race. White students in predominantly white classrooms should be discussing race for those reasons and because they are members of a multicultural society and world.

Empower Change and explore our anti-racism resources hub. We believe in fostering a world where equality, justice, and understanding prevail. Our commitment to combating racism is reflected in this collection of free resources designed to educate and empower.

Wellcome has developed this resource to help us achieve racial equity in our organisation and work. This is not legal advice, it is a framework for how to be anti-racist at Wellcome and when engaging with Wellcome.
