Black Liberation is needed more than ever in an age of multiple international crises. African, Arab, Asian, Caribbean and other black communities are being hit hard by war, rising racism, the cost of living crisis and climate breakdown. Racist ideology and the legacy of imperlialist colonialism dehumanises our communities. The Black Liberation Alliance is hosting this one day event open to African, Arab, Asian, Caribbean and other black communities to educate and organise within our communities for an agenda of emancipation, liberation, justice and equality both here and across the globe.
