Reading and Writing series on Race and Architecture will welcome themes for sessions at the School of Architecture, Oxford Brookes University. The aim is to encourage inclusive participation in discourse on race and racism. The series will also encourage writings on issues of race, equity and design justice by those who often face institutional barriers.

The inspiration for a reading and writing group comes from Race | Space.

We reference the ARB’s ethnicity breakdown for the term Black or Black British. The focus on Black and Black British people is owed to the Founder and Researcher of Black in Architecture identifying as Black British herself. She is an expert of her own experiences and not an expert on race. Her work is driven by her curiosity and motivation to help build better and fairer communities.
