- Shortage of black professors: a failure to nurture talent
It does matter that just 0.4% of British professors are black – 50 out of 14,385Another day, another story of disproportions. Too many black youths being jailed, too few black youths achieving at schools, too few making their way to our elite universities. Now we know that when they do make it to university the chances of them encountering a black professor seem fairly remote. Does this matter? I think it does.Not perhaps in terms of gaining qualifications. There's no doubt other professors from a variety of backgrounds impart knowledge to everyone as best they can, without discrimination. But it matters in terms of aspiration. Black professors represent success. Human beings like to replicate success. They show the gifted student what is possible if they work hard. Their scarcity, by contrast, douses ambition. And more than anything else, we need ambition.So what's happening here? A lack of transparency, I suspect. The light seldom shines on the internal working of our higher education sector. When it does, what we see isn't pretty. Self-perpetuating elites, heads of faculty raising aloft others who remind them of themselves. A failure to progress talent through the system. Not racism, per se, but institutional racism if we are to use the term as was intended by old Stokely Carmichael when he invented it: processes and structures that when taken together – and often involving people of genuinely good intent – result in unwanted and discriminatory outcomes. So if the survey findings prompt pause for thought at our universities, that's a good thing.But let's be honest; the institutions aren't the only ones that need to be doing some thinking. Whatever happened to the dream deferred? It was our dream. Are we doing enough to fulfil it?

The Paris court decided Friday to fine French Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux 750 euros (897 U.S. dollars) over his racism comment about a young man last year.
The court also ordered Hortefeux to pay 2,000 euros in damage to MRAP, an anti-racism group that filed against the minister.

- Saudi women are being driven to rebellion | Nesrine Malik
The driving ban in Saudi Arabia does little to actually protect women, it is merely a backward, pre-emptive act of repressionWhile all eyes are on Libya, Syria and Yemen, a different kind of rebellion is taking place in Saudi Arabia. A group of Saudi women have set up Women2Drive, a right-to-drive campaign, with a launch date of 17 June.Last week one of its members, Manal al-Sharif, took to the streets and drove a car for a couple of hours, filming her trip (her father assisted) and posting it on YouTube. On Sunday, she was arrested along with her brother, who reportedly has now been released.This isn't the first time that there has been a push to drive in the kingdom. In the early 1990s, members of a similar campaign were arrested and some were fired from their jobs.Against the backdrop of the Arab uprisings, it might seem like a frivolous thing to ask, especially when we are told that Saudi women do not need to drive, as they are so covetously protected and provided with drivers to save them the trouble.The irony is that although the entire system is constructed to prevent men and women finding khalwa, or privacy, together, it is permissible to be alone in a car with one's non-Saudi driver – the perfect confluence of racism and patronage that exposes the absurdity and confusion behind arbitrary laws of public female deportment in Saudi Arabia.There is nothing empowering or protective about not being allowed to drive. While I was living in Saudi Arabia, in a family of five females with no man in the household, we were permanently at the mercy of our driver to run even the most basic of errands.If he was late, indisposed or unable to tend to us for some reason, the only alternative was to hail a taxi – a very unpleasant prospect for a woman in a Saudi city.

- Letters: Racism, feminism and banning the veil
The vote in the French lower house to ban the wearing of the face veil in public is a dangerous development in the intensification of Islamophobia in Europe (Racism veiled as liberation, 15 July). That it has been proclaimed as a victory for women's rights makes it all the more appalling. Racism is being legitimised by giving it a feminist spin. Banning the veil, or any other sort of Islamic dress, has nothing to do with liberating women. Liberation, if it is to mean anything, is about self-determination. This must include choice about how to live and dress. It is a myth that women only wear the veil because men force them to. Many women wear the veil in defiance of their parents. Why? Because they see it as a statement of pride in their religious identity and a refusal to be cowed by state-endorsed demonisation of Islam.If there are women forced to wear the veil by a male family member, how will the state forcing them not to wear it help? Such enforcement can never be progressive. The result will be that, far from being liberated, such women may become completely excluded from public life. It has become mainstream common sense to denounce Islam as somehow uniquely backward and oppressive. For those of us who genuinely believe in challenging oppression and fighting for women's liberation, we see it for what is, racism. Across Europe the only beneficiaries of such laws will be the far right.Judith OrrAuthor, Sexism and the System• There may be a small minority of women who wear the face veil in France, but I have lived in East Ham for 10 years and over this time I have noticed an increase in the number of women covering their faces.

- Letters: Government shows a lack of leadership on race equality
The writers of your piece entitled UK riots: 'Those who seeks to racialise this problem are taking us backwards' (10 August) are right to warn against rushing to racialise the riots. There has been a lot of speculation on the role of race in the recent riots. But whatever the causes, policymakers need to respond to the racial inequalities that have implications far beyond violence on the streets.Racial discrimination still affects the life chances of too many people in the UK. Evidence consistently shows that many minority ethnic communities experience poorer outcomes than the rest of the population in education, employment, health and housing. Yet the government has not undertaken any substantial work on race equality, and our work indicates that it is doing very little to ensure its policies do not worsen the currently existing inequalities.This inaction is likely to come under scrutiny next week when the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination examines the government's actions on challenging these issues. UKNGOs Against Racism, a group of organisations convened by the Runnymede Trust, will present a report, informed by a series of consultations with community groups across the UK, to the UN committee. Our submission is based on robust evidence and makes concrete recommendations for improving race equality.We are calling for the government to develop a race equality strategy, outlining how it intends to tackle ethnic inequalities. Government must ensure that our laws and policies lead to more equal outcomes for the UK's ethnic minorities. The government's response to the inequalities in our society is particularly crucial given the need to understand the causes of the riots that have occurred across England recently.Societies should be jud _NULL_
- Put race equality in mental health back on the agenda | Patrick Vernon
Key issues are being overlooked in the new mental health strategy, says Patrick Vernon of the Afiya TrustRacism in mental health institutions and wider society no longer appears to be an issue if the coalition government is to be believed. The impression given is that we are moving to a post-racial big society where 'state multiculturalism' is expunged from British values and public consciousness.This move is reflected in 'No health without mental health', the new cross-governmental mental health strategy. This builds on some of the aspirations of its predecessor New Horizons developed by New Labour in its last 12 months in power.At face value we recognise the new strategy's important focus on children and young people, anti-discrimination campaigns and the ongoing commitment to psychological therapies. However, the new strategy fails to address key issues around race and mental health, typified by the absence of any black and minority ethnic (BME) and service user-led organisations in its 'A call to action' document.In the strategy, the government talks about parity of esteem in recognition that mental health services should be on the same level as other major conditions such as cancer and stroke. But what we are left with is a disparity of esteem for BME communities.The overwhelming evidence, detention rates of up to 63.6% and higher than average rates of supervised community treatment orders, is clear. Yet no attempt at dialogue is being made to take forward the knowledge and experience of BME service users, practitioners and organisations on the need to develop culturally sensitive services.BME communities, particularly African, Caribbean and Muslim people, are still perceived either as a menace to society or victims of their own misfortune in terms of culture, fait 主要な問題は、新しい精神保健戦略の中で見過ごされているが、精神保健機関やより広い社会の中でAfiyaのTrustRacismのPatrick Vernonさんは、もはや連立政府は信じられるとされている場合の問題と思われると言います
- English Defence League: Q&A with Matthew Taylor
The Guardian reporter will be online for a debate about the EDL and the politics surrounding it from midday Thursday (UK time)This week, both journalists and Scotland Yard's domestic extremism unit has been investigating Anders Behring Breivik's alleged links with far-right groups and individuals in the UK, while anti-racist campaigners believe the man responsible for the mass killing in Norway had been communicating with activists from the English Defence League.While pinning down any such links is a valid exercise, the very fact that Breivik identified the UK as somewhere with a healthy and active far-right scene – he emailed his 1500-page manifesto to 250 British contacts shortly before he began his attack, according to a Belgian MP – should be a great cause of concern in itself. But it does not necessarily surprise me.I have been covering the far right in Britain for the past 10 years, from the rise of the British National party, particularly its move from its birthplace in the south east to targeting Labour-supporting areas in the north, and its subsequent decline. More recently, I have been reporting on the emergence of the EDL.Last year, I spent four months undercover on EDL demonstrations, witnessing its growing popularity. At each demonstration I attended, I was confronted by casual racism, a widespread hatred of Muslims and often the threat of violence. But I also met non-white people, gay rights activists, disaffected working class men and women, and middle-class intellectuals. I came to the conclusion that the EDL is not a simple rerun of previous far-right street groups. And as we watch the BNP implode, we should be clear that the end of one far-right political party is not the end of the far-right threat in the UK, or across Europe.These are some of the is _NULL_
- Father Austin Smith obituary
The Catholic church of St Anne's in Liverpool was full to overflowing for the funeral of my friend Father Austin Smith, who has died aged 82. He was a complex, learned man, acutely aware of the political climate and yet rooted in his native city which had suffered the decline and dismantling of communities.In October 1971, Austin established the Passionist Inner City Mission in Toxteth. He continued to be a much loved and active presence in the Liverpool 8 district for the following 40 years. His influence extended far beyond. For many years, Austin was assistant chaplain at Walton prison. It was only ill-health that forced his retirement after 14 years' service.Born in Liverpool, one of two sons of Jim and Josephine Smith, he was educated by the Christian Brothers, and joined the Passionist religious order in his early teens. Pursuing his interest in philosophy and church social teaching, he began to earn a national reputation as a preacher and lecturer and was closely involved with Young Christian Workers and Young Christian Student movements in the 1960s.Then, encouraged by the fresh vitality after the Second Vatican Council, Austin made the choice not to settle in the comfort of monastic life, but began to articulate and propose new ways to reach out to people in places stigmatised as marginal. With the blessing of his congregation, he established the Passionist mission in Toxteth.His contribution to the struggle to overcome racism is well documented. Significantly, in 1981, during the Toxteth riots, Austin played a positive and pivotal role in articulating the deeper issues that were at play. He was uniquely placed to act as a go-between for the local community, the church hierarchy and the city leaders.He was a modest man, unimpressed by power or authority, sensi リバプールのセントアンズのカトリック教会は82歳で死亡した私の友人の父オースティンスミス、の葬儀のためにあふれに満ちていました
- Barack Obama's White House bows to the conservatives again
Inflamed by Fox News, a politically-edited video cost Shirley Sherrod her government job, Even when it was exposed as a blatant lie, the White House did not defend herIt is a tried and tested technique. A story surfaces on an obscure, journalistically dubious, conservative website. It spreads to Fox News who churn out their standard-issue anti-liberal outrage. Then, in an effort to catch up, the rest of the mainstream media piles in.So it was last week with a video of a black department of agriculture official, Shirley Sherrod, apparently speaking about not giving a white farmer as much help as she could because of his race. Responding to Fox-inspired howls, Sherrod was rapidly forced to resign by agriculture secretary Tom Vilsack. White House officials clucked approval, apparently relieved they could show that having a black president did not mean being anti-white. Even the venerable civil rights group the NAACP lambasted Sherrod's anti-white racism.But the then a fuller video emerged, revealing the full context of what Sherrod had said, rather than the much shorter, edited version that conservative misfit blogger Andrew Breitbart had posted. It showed beyond doubt that Sherrod had not been describing recent events, but had been talking about her experiences 24 years ago. More damningly, neither had she been racist. Her full speech was in fact a moving story of her discovery that race did not matter and that the real divide in America was between haves and have-nots. Far from abandoning the white farmer, she had helped to save his farm. That version was confirmed by the farmer, who heaped praise on Sherrod on CNN.The behaviour of the conservative media was revealed in all its grim dirty tricks. But what was truly shocking was the reaction, not of Fox News, who can be e 炎症は、フォックスニュース、政治的に編集されたビデオコストシャーリーシェロッド彼女の政府の仕事でさえもがそれは真っ赤なうそとして公開され、ホワイトハウスはherItを守ることはなかったとした、テクニックをテストした
- The west goes wild as Obama and the Democrats ride again
With one cool shot, the US president brought down both Osama bin Laden and Republican claims to the mantle of western heroWesterns have never been seen as Democrat movies. But this is based on a misunderstanding. The western genre of American film is generally thought of as morally crude, politically reactionary and so on, but in reality it was always more complex. From Fort Apache with its depiction of military folly to The Searchers, a dark tale of racism and otherness, the master of the western film, John Ford, always explored ambiguous themes and invested his films with deep intelligence.Many other classic westerns portray characters who abhor violence – although they always use it in the end: Destry Rides Again and Shane both have heroes who are reluctant to take up arms. In these and other westerns it is only the bad guys who shoot for the sake of it and relish the wild side of the law. Yet somehow, in myth and political symbolism the bad guys are remembered as the good guys, the films of the wild west associated with the law of the gun. And it is Republican America, most successfully in the persona of Ronald Reagan and most dangerously in the would-be heroism of George W Bush, that has claimed the heritage of the mythic west.This is why cool-talking, straight-shooting President Barack Obama has just changed history. He has overturned more than three decades in which the Democrats looked through the lens of the western like wimps from back east, and Republicans posed as tough sheriffs. Now there is a new sheriff in town and a new message: if you want years of bumbling, messy, murderous war, a Republican is best, but if you actually want a president who gets his man like a real US marshal of legend ... vote Democrat in 2012.For a long time, Republicans have cast t つのクールなショットでは、米大統領が民主党の映画として見。。u200b。。u200bたことがない西部heroWesternsのマントルの両方にオサマビンラディンと共和党の主張をなびかせている

- Stop EDL's Bradford march of hate | Marsha Singh
If the Conservatives are serious about localism they must heed the petition of the people of Bradford and ban this racist marchLater today a delegation from Bradford will go to the Home Office to hand in a petition, signed by over 10,000 local people, calling on the home secretary to ban the proposed English Defence League (EDL) march in our city at the end of the month.The EDL is a racist, anti-Muslim organisation that is coming to Bradford with the sole intention of whipping up tensions and trying to provoke a riot. It is made up of football hooligans, racists and even former loyalist paramilitaries who are now living in England.Unfortunately, we know only too well what this type of terror can bring and Bradford is still recovering from the disturbances of 2001, the consequences of a previous racist incursion. Those events did great damage to our city and any repeat may well cause irreparable damage.The call for a ban has not been taken lightly. We live in a democracy where the right to protest is fundamental but with rights come responsibilities and there has to be limits on people who set out to terrorise, frighten and provoke trouble.We are calling on the home secretary and West Yorkshire police to listen to the will of the people of Bradford and stop this march of hate.Over the last few weeks I have been out campaigning with Hope Not Hate in building the petition. This is not some bureaucratic or passive appeal to the authorities but real people demanding that those who are supposed to serve and protect us, actually do just that.I have been involved in anti-racism for over 30 years but I have never seen such community engagement as I have witnessed in this campaign.
