RJI is joining the Assata Shakur Brigade mission to Cuba this month, to take menstrual products such as cups, tampons and sanitary towels. The travel is self-funded, so your donations will go directly to bringing urgent aid to the Cuban people.

The framing of teaching “awareness of racial biases and discrimination”, is not be enough to change these outcomes because racist ideology is built into medicine so it can’t just be about the care being given but reckoning with racist logics in medicine and not just in midwifery!

We are appalled and weary of the ongoing attacks against Muslim, Black, Brown and Migrant people in the U.K.

We have compiled some safety tips to consider in the upcoming weeks and months. We hope they are helpful to you and your communities⬇️

Strip-searching of young people has to stop when majority of the time these searches turn up nothing, it’s tantamount to child abuse. @ShareefaEnergy for @RJInitiative underscores the importance of being an active bystander when we see police harass children & young POC!

[Shareefa Energy @ShareefaEnergy]

Over 60 children a week are strip searched by police in England & Wales.

Black children are 6.5 times more likely than white children to be subjected to a strip search by police.

Awful statistics. We ask more of the public to challenge stop and searches to reduce statistics
