The Racial Justice Network

Race and Climate Justice series. Empathetic and holistic sessions which support the learnings to undo the legacies of colonialism.

Dear Activists and organisers!We have a very special session this month! We are coming together in spirit to continue raising awareness of the importance of the history of the people that have contributed to the reparations movement here in the UK. Here is the Racial Justice Network we say, let us RESIST, REMEMBER &amp; REPAIR. A world where we can coexist and people and all planetary beings can exist with their relationships. Solutions III: Centering Reparations in our movementsOnTuesday 28th June, 2022 at 6 pm UKhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/337449991007 For that reason we are having a PRACTICAL session where we understand how the reparations are being applied in our local communities, in spirit with the 13th recommendation. A beat where we remember the colonial legacies and centre the most marginalised in all the shapes of repair that we need. More specifically, we will hear about the importance of alternative education spaces, as a means of visibilize struggles of resistance, and previous historical figures of our history. Before we come together in the spirit of reparations please have a look at some words to ground our discussions around: *Maatubuntununyansa (Maat+ ubuntu + nunya = knowledge in Ewe + yansa = wisdom in many West Afrikan languages) basically means conscientization that enables Afrikan people to advance from all knowledge relevant to the Maangamizi and its solutions towards grasping the wisdom of building Maatubuntuman in Ubuntudunia as the ultimate global embodiment of our holistic Pan-Afrikan Reparatory Justice endeavours.*Maangamizi – According to Professor Maulana Karenga Maangamizi, the Swahili term for Afrikan Holocaust and continuum of chattel, colonial and neocolonial enslavement, is more appropriate than its alternative category Maafa. For, Maafa which means calamity, accident, ill luck, disaster, or damage does not indicate intentionality. It could be a natural disaster or a deadly highway accident. But Maangamizi is derived from the verb -angamiza which means to cause destruction, to utterly destroy and thus carries with it a sense of intentionality. The “a” prefix suggests an amplified destruction and thus speaks to the massive nature of the Holocaust.Ubuntudunia (Ubuntu+dunia) is a combined Nguni &amp; Kiswahili word which means a Multipolar World of Global Justice.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqPaEcWEOx0 Please have a look at the website: https://stopthemaangamizi.com/ AséRace and Climate Justice Collective
