There was a great turnout for the event, where the audience heard from a range of guest speakers from across the Faculty and Students\u2019 Union.<\/p>\n

First to speak was Professor James Thompson, Associate Vice-President for Social Responsibility. He told attendees: \u201cBlack History Month is important for the University, but all 12 months of the year we should be celebrating BAME (Black, Asian and minority ethnic) staff and students.<\/p>\n

“We should be active in dealing with discrimination and provide a platform for all voices to be heard.\u201d His words echoed the sentiment of The University of Manchester\u2019s BAME Network: Because race equality benefits us all.<\/em><\/p>\n

Next to speak was Professor Paul Mativenga, Vice Dean for Social Responsibility. \u201cLook backwards at our [University\u2019s] heritage; we hired the first Black professor in the UK\u2026 We have a rich heritage.\u201d<\/p>\n

He was, of course, referring to W Arthur Lewis (pictured)<\/em>, the Saint Lucian economist who\u00a0began lecturing at Victoria University of Manchester in 1948. He would later earn the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics for the work he published during his time at the University.<\/p>\n

More to do<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But while the University has made progress in its commitment to equality and diversity, there is more to do. Georgina Lewis and Berrisford Edwards, Co-Chairs of the BAME staff network, told attendees the goal of the network is to keep challenging the University. Georgina said: \u201cIt\u2019s important to contribute to making a positive change.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to figures presented by Georgina and Berrisford, the network\u2019s next goal is for the total number of BAME academics in the position of Senior Lecturer or above to reach 16%. It\u2019s currently 10%. They are also working for the total percentage of BAME staff at the University in a Grade 6 position or above to reach 11% (it\u2019s currently 7%).<\/p>\n

Next up was Diversity Officer for the Students\u2019 Union \u2013 and the only international student to currently sit on the SU Executive \u2013 Riddi Viswanathan. She told attendees that her job is to support students regardless of their background.<\/p>\n

Riddi noted that BAME students \u2013 and particularly international students – are underrepresented throughout the Student Union, which was something she wanted to address when she took up her position. She now organises events specifically for international students, and revealed: \u201cComing to the UK inspired me to be who I am.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI cannot be away from my culture\u201d<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next to speak was Joanne Jacobs, Directorate for the Student Experience, who was joined by three students from the Equity and Merit Programme. One of them, Sophia Kununka, spoke of the culture shock she experienced when first joining the University, and of how she overcame it by simply being herself and embracing her heritage. \u201cI cannot be away from my culture, so I will bring African sociability to my PHD office,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The Equity and Merit Scholarships Programme was set up to assist talented students from some of the world\u2019s poorest countries. You can learn more about it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Other students to take to the stage included Chemical Engineering student and poet Yusuf Tarajia (check out his work here<\/a>) and Jonah Ogbuneke, who set up the Love For The Streets<\/a> campaign raising awareness of the homelessness crisis in Manchester. Jonah, who is also a Chemical Engineering student, is one of our VoluntHeroes<\/a>, and explained that volunteering is all about working for the passion, not the money.<\/p>\n

Rethinking Black History Month<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dr Dawn Edge is Academic Lead for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion at the University. She pointed out that Western culture has its own definition of Black history, but that BHM allows us to challenge this narrative.<\/p>\n

Dr Edge asked the audience to think about what came next. \u201cWhat is the fight now? What are we all standing together for?\u201d<\/p>\n

Her concluding message summed up the overall feeling of the event: \u201cThere\u2019s lots to celebrate, but also lots of change to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
