Members of the regional black members self-organised group

8 October 2022 12:30pm–4:00pm

UNISON Yorkshire & Humberside Regional Centre, Quayside House, Canal Wharf, Leeds, LS11 5PS

Abdul Rashid & Pam Sian, Chair & Vice Chair of the Regional Black Members Self Organised group, invite members to celebrate Black History Month. This will be an an opportunity to meet Black members from across the region as we come together to celebrate Black heritage and culture.

In UNISON, Black is used to indicate people with a shared history. Black with a capital ‘B’ is used in its broad political and inclusive sense to describe people in Britain that have suffered colonialism and enslavement in the past and continue to experience racism and diminished opportunities in today’s society.
