REEN- Race, Ethnicity, and Education Network

REEN at the Graduate School of Education @UoE explores issues on racism and race inequality in education. Our views do not represent the university.

“As abolitionists, we do not see school exclusions as an end in itself but as an essential part of a much broader process of transforming the education & social justice system.”

From “What About the Other 29?”

That my alma mater chose to suspend the students who exposed racism is an absolute disgrace. Don't dare claim me as a success while engaging in this nonsense. Reinstate the students immediately!!

“how can we become preventative rather than reactive & work in harmony with families?

We asked the children, if there is one thing you could change about mainstream school, what would it be?

Unanimously they agreed: it was to remove isolation booths.” https://t.co/GGWlyfeBjk

This is from a @NExclusions guide

They dare to imagine schooling that is not harmful

They believe the most marginalised are not disposable

They invest in practical alternatives and futures which are nourishing, not a deficit

Only a limited imagination would not want this

“And no more unconscious bias training. Anyone still unconscious at this point must be comatose” @zahrabei

Exclusions are not behaviour interventions. They are uncreative responses to unmet needs” @lana_crosbie

We all know what is being invoked every time the term “extremist” is being attached to Black and brown bodies.

White supremacy, we see you.

❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾to everyone that posted/messaged in support.

1. We will not be silenced or intimidated.

2. Our work is too important, our coalition too bright, our ancestors too powerful.

3. We do not engage in “debates” in bad faith.

When REEN welcomed Zahra in Autumn 2020 over 70 educators attended - change must happen and people will be inspired by this work 🔥✊🏽

"I got fed up with my students ending up in prison or dead...I will not be in the classroom for as long as things don’t change...what we want to see is accountability and we want to see change” - So proud to see this piece on Zahra Bei of @NExclusions ✊🏾

Can’t wait to read this 👇🏽👇🏽

[REEN- Race, Ethnicity, and Education Network @ExeterReen]

🔥🔥👇🏽👇🏽 congrats to the team who’ve worked on this book - important work on the racialised nature of school food policy - get in on your reading lists - these are essential debates to be had

[Gurpinder Lalli @GurpinderLalli]

'Schools, Space and Culinary Capital', during a difficult few years for all, really grateful to see this book published, I discuss how school food policy is classed, gendered and racialised https://t.co/rR9LVbDkIO @BSA_Food @UOWEdObs @SchoolMeals_ @sfmtweet @Food_Foundation

The Home Office has announced today that restrictions on police stop & search will be permanently lifted

In 2021, Black people were 7 times more likely to be stopped & searched - that was WITH the restrictions. Terrifying to think how bad it will get:
