I am welcoming you again into my nocturnal mind to discuss the role and responsibility people, such as myself, working across the cultural sector, the arts and publishing in Western Europe, have to fight systemic racism in our societies. I start with a passage from All About Love: New Visions by bell hooks, mentioning the gap between thought and action when it comes to fighting for causes we believe in. I am urging people who have access and resources across cultural sectors, to go beyond educating ourselves about racism, but actually turn thought into concrete action. What are we going to do next?

The book I am reading from is All About Love: New Visions by bell hooks.
The authors I am mentioning are Fatima El Tayeb, Stuart Hall, Gloria Wekker.
I am quoting filmmaker and activist Deeyah Khan.
