Our billboard is up! Responding to children in Bristol who think racism needs to be addressed, not just a theme in Black History Month or a headline after an incident. We invite you to imagine a world without racism & consider how we can get there. @UWE_Research @EmergingMindsUK

We consider that this approach contributes to knowledge and understanding about exploring the nuanced and complex relationship between the children's external worlds and internal feelings, and suggest a framework for others to use and adapt. Pls check it out. @EmergingMindsUK

The research responds to the relative lack of literature concerning the racialised experiences of young children. We discuss how we developed the arts-based method of body mapping as an ethical approach to foregrounding the children's voices. @RespectProjBris

How & what do we memorialise? The RESPECT team were out with @MontpelierHigh to explore young people’s insights & how we make sense of the slave trade today. Learners suggested plaques to celebrate family, statues of wise women & stones to remember the forgotten. @UWEBristol
