Otherness: Interrogating the Politics of Racial Identity in Modern Britain

We hosted a screening of BAFTA and Oscar-winning shorts that interrogated the politics of racial identity in Black and South Asian communities in Britain.

How do we navigate racial bias in seemingly liberal environments like the workplace and schools? The post-screening discussion with the filmmakers explored the concept and discourse of otherness, exoticism and cultural politics, focusing on the past, our present reality and a possible dystopian future.
