Bedlam Liberation Representatives

09/10/2021

Hi! It's a new year, and so we're looking for more voices at Bedlam to represent our communities. Please get in touch if you have any ideas :), especially post-covid specific.

For people who self-identify as an ethnic minority/BAME:

ALL INFO BELOW IS ON THE VOTING PAGE HERE: https://www.opavote.com/en/vote/5595397599789056
Many within the community here aren't comfortable with the terminology of BAME, and during my election/work as a member of Bedlam I have sought to change this. It wouldn't be fair (or, indeed, constitutional) to unilaterally change the terminology, so I would like to seek opinions through this poll.
Please select your preferred terminology. Voting closes 11:59 09/02/2021.

See here for some background: https://www.ethnicity-facts-figures.service.gov.uk/style-guide/writing-about-ethnicity

Vote for Change terminology used within the EUTC for ethnic minority representation (currently BAME).

Hello all!

I also posted this on the main page but thought would post for you all here as well

Here is a summary of what BAME@Bedlam has been discussing, in the hopes that once we all understand the issues we can take action more effectively.

If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask me! Am so happy to hear from you all, BAMER or no

Removal of privilege is not oppression...

Over recent years I have been really working on trying not to envy anyone. It’s not easy. But quite a few, in absolute truth...
