We are saddened and enraged by the death of Professor Jason Arday. A peer, friend and former trustee of the Racial Justice Network.

Jason was a deeply valued member of our community whose scholarship and advocacy confronted racism, exclusion and inequality within education and beyond. His loss will be felt profoundly by those who knew, loved and worked alongside him.

We send our sincerest condolences to his family and friends during this devastating time.

May Professor Jason Arday Rest In Power.

Our most recent blog post features an intimate commemoration and reflection as we approach the first anniversary of the transitioning of our late Comrade, Dr Pious Nyandoro.

The piece reflects on his passing as a symptomatic failure of a system that continues to shape whose lives are seen as worthy of dignity, protection, and remembrance. It forces readers to ask questions such as: How has Europe succeeded in presenting itself as the global guardian of democracy and human rights while simultaneously operating one of the world's most repressive, hostile immigration regimes? In addition to asking readers to question whether we have become so institutionalised in the management of suffering that we no longer recognise the need to challenge the political systems that drive and perpetuate it?

Most pointedly, the blog calls on us to continue the work to which our Comrade Dr Nyandoro devoted his life: truth-telling, political education and collective resistance.

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us in celebrating the Racial Justice Network's 10th Anniversary ✨

We are incredibly grateful to have shared this milestone with so many of you. Seeing friends, supporters, collaborators, community members, and partners come together to reflect on the past decade of our work made the celebration all the more meaningful.

As we look back on 10 years of organising, movement-building, learning, and collective action we are filled with so much gratitude for all that has been achieved and for the many people who have helped shape this journey.

We wanted to give a special thank you to our artists, performers, speakers, community stallholders, volunteers, and everyone who contributed their time, energy, and creativity to make the day possible.

Here's to the relationships, struggles, victories, and solidarities that have brought us this far and to the work that still lies ahead🥂

From our funders and partners to long-time collaborators, supporters, volunteers, staff, and community members, this decade of organising, resistance, learning, and growth would not have been possible without you.
Together, we have worked to dismantle racism, confronted colonial legacies, built powerful relationships, and created spaces rooted in justice, solidarity, and collective action. We are incredibly proud of everything we have achieved over the last 10 years and grateful to everyone who has walked alongside us.
We can’t wait to celebrate this milestone with you.

For the past 10 years, RJN has worked alongside communities resisting racism, challenging colonial power, and building spaces rooted in solidarity, care, and collective action. This June, we invite you to celebrate that journey with us✊🏾

Our 10th Anniversary Celebration will bring together community members, organisers, artists, collaborators, and supporters for an afternoon of storytelling, exhibition, reflection, performances, and conversation.

Together, we’ll honour the relationships, struggles, creativity, and resilience that have sustained this work over the last decade, while looking towards the futures we still need to build.

Whether you’ve been part of RJN’s journey for years or are connecting with us for the first time, we would love for you to join us for this special moment.

There’s now less than two weeks to go before we stop selling tickets for the Northern Race Equality Conference 2026, in collaboration with Ella Baker School of Organising and Race Equality Network! ‼️✨

Join us for a day of powerful conversations, political education, workshops, and collective organising with communities, organisers, academics, artists, and activists from across the country.

In increasingly hostile times, spaces like NREC are vital for building solidarity, exchanging knowledge, strengthening connections, and imagining collective pathways towards racial justice and liberation.

Whether you’re attending to learn, connect, reflect, or organise, we hope you’ll join us in building this important space together.

Meet the speakers 🇧🇷🇬🇧✨

For our Afro-Diasporic Futures report launch, expect to hear directly from organisers and leaders based in Salvador Brazil, whose work is redefining what care and community-led practice look like in action.

We’re excited to bring together a wealth of Brazilian voices 🇧🇷 alongside speakers from our own team; people working across multiple fronts to confront systemic racism and gender-based violence in their respective fields, regions, and beyond.

If you’re interested in learning from organising in different contexts, how all our work connects and want to explore how to engage in this kind of work, this event is for you.

✊🏾Share with someone who should be part of this conversation.
