Glossary

anti-racism
refers to the active process of identifying and challenging racism in all its forms.
ethnically diverse
refers to groups which are diverse in terms of ethnic background. This might include a sports team made of players from Black, Asian, White and Latin American backgrounds.
non-racist
refers to the process of not actively identifying and challenging racism. In other words, someone who is ‘non-racist’ might oppose racism, but they do not actively do anything to stop it and are therefore complicit in its perpetuity. not included in text
pedagogy
refers to the process of teaching and learning. There are models of pedagogy that exist which help educators to deliver classes effectively.
racism
refers to the process of discriminating against an individual or a group based on their race, ethnicity, religion or cultural background. There are many different types of racism that exist which include overt, symbolic, institutional and systemic.
racially minoritised
refers to the process whereby people, depending on their race, are designated into groups. By using minoritised, however, we acknowledge that race, for example, has been socially constructed and formed, creating power imbalances. Therefore, certain racialised groups within a UK context, have been minoritised, but are in fact majoritised globally.
