Action for Race Equality (ARE) stands alongside Professor Jason Arday and with all Black scholars and professionals who experience racialised and disproportionate public scrutiny.

While Professor Arday has been officially cleared of wrongdoing by his university, the continued intensity and framing of media coverage highlights the unequal standards too often applied to Black public figures.

This practice does more than undermine individual achievement; the importance of positive Black male role models for our young people cannot be underestimated. Jason was one of ARE’s Routes2Success first Role Models and is remembered fondly, and his later achievements are viewed with great satisfaction and pride.

Such media coverage reinforces the systemic racism that continues to shape experiences across academia, the media and wider society.

We call out discriminatory reporting, champion fairness and accountability, and support the creation of environments where Black excellence is recognised without suspicion.

Finally, we call on news outlets to report responsibly and to avoid perpetuating the racial bias and unequal standards often applied to Black public figures.

ARE are proud to announce that its Chief Exec Jeremy Crook OBE has been conferred a Honorary Doctorate in Social Science from the University of Wolverhampton.

It was awarded to him in recognition of ‘Jeremy's exceptional achievements in his field, his contribution to advancing race equality nationally, and his enduring commitment to supporting disadvantaged and underrepresented communities.’

Born in Walsall, he enrolled at Wolverhampton Polytechnic in 1984, eventually graduating with a BA (Hons) in Social Science before working at BTEG (later ARE).

Jeremy has since held leadership and advisory roles with numerous organisations, including the Home Office’s Strategic Race Board, the Mayor of London's Violence Reduction Unit, His Majesty's Prison and Probation Service, and West Ham United Foundation influencing policy across ARE’s core areas of education, employment and criminal justice.

Congratulations Dr. Jeremy Crook OBE.
