In response to numerous reports of various forms of racism, the Law School, through its Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Committee, affirms that racism is unacceptable within the law school environment. As part of that effort, since 2024 we have regularly scheduled a number of activities every year especially in TB2. This is part of the Committee’s commitment to actively identify and oppose racism. These activities focus our attention on ways that racist ideas and actions may implicitly and explicitly be perpetuated in our school – and what we can do to stop them. While these activities are tailored mainly for law school students, all members of the University of Bristol are welcome.
