Diversify the british school curricula
Change the school curricula so that learning about black history, white supremacy and privilege are compulsory as well as diversifying reading lists for gcse subjects and being given a variety of perspectives on historical events
Education is the most powerful tool and it is important that it is instilled from a young age that racism is unacceptable. Furthermore it is not enough to not be racist, we have to be anti-racist and children need to know and be taught how to stand up to and challenge oppressive views.
