Minds of POC

NO LONGER ACTIVE * A developmental consultancy service focused on improving support for people of colour. For any enquires please e-mail: [email protected]

[Minds of POC @MindsOfPOC]

Hi we’re Minds of POC!

Our service began due to the sore lack of knowledge around people of colour’s mental health.

We want to enact change the best way we can through consultations, workshops & training. We hope this lays the groundwork to the true structural change needed.

I am once again warning you all that I am this close 🤏🏼 to opening a gym that centers disabled and trans people’s needs with wheelchair-friendly machines, no loud music, soft overhead lights, individual shower rooms, fat-positive trainers, and classes led by drag queens.

"The very serious function of racism is distraction"

There's no clearer example of these distraction tactics than the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities Report, which alleges they couldn't find any evidence of structural racism faced by racialised groups in the UK
