021 Why is silence not an option? | Stuart Lawrence

This special final episode of the Black Men in Education series ends with a powerful message highlighting the relevance of a diverse curriculum; the importance of a well-rounded education and why it is crucial to be anti-racist.

I sit down with Rt. Hon. Stuart Lawrence, author, public speaker and educator.  Stuart Lawrence, is the younger brother of Stephen Lawrence who was murdered in an unprovoked racially motivated attack in 1993.

We discuss Stuart's book, Silence is Not an Option, his thoughts on racism, the eradication of history and the importance of developing a rich, inclusive and diverse curriculum.
