Each month we will be posting a new digital tool-kit with reading materials and resources to aid in counter-movements and the enhancement of critical media literate and de-colonial perspectives. This month, we share essays, articles and tools related to the experience(s) of being a person of colour in Europe, contributing to a pan-European discourse and dialogue on race, identity and belonging.
