At about the same time last year, George Floyd, an African-American man was murdered in the US. His death sparked an unprecedented wave of protests against police brutality and structural racism in the US but also across the world.
A year later, what's the situation like when it comes to racial justice in Europe? While some politicians at EU level seem keen to do the necessary work, countries such as France are adopting racist laws that target religious and racial minorities.
But what exactly needs to happen? Why is it so essential to have movements advocating for change that are led by racialised people? Can we really expect change from a continent that has such a hard time acknowledging its colonial history?
To understand where we're at and where we need to go, we discuss with Claire Gilder, one of the co-founder of recently launched Equinox Initiative for Racial Justice, a people of colour-led initiative working to advance rights and justice for all people in Europe.
