The black manifesto
This manifesto outlines evidence of ongoing racial inequality in the UK and calls on political parties and the next government to take meaningful action to address it. It presents data showing disparities faced by black and minority ethnic groups in areas like the criminal justice system, employment, education, health, housing and poverty. The document was produced by dozens of organizations seeking to empower and engage minority communities in the political process. It sets out key questions for political candidates on economic and social policies and calls for responses that will be shared publicly. The manifesto's goals are to set a race equality agenda for the next government, motivate minority voters, and ensure the new administration is committed to reducing inequalities through potential new legislation and other measures.
The pied piper brap
The history of the BME third sector in Britain has been largely shaped by UK race relations policy over the past 60 years. BME organizations originated as a response to racism and discrimination and have taken on roles assigned by public policy, such as service providers for niche communities. While policy support has benefited the sector, it has also limited its development by narrowly defining its functions. An understanding of the sector's unique relationship with race relations policy is key to envisioning its future development.
