JVL Seminar: Race, Identity Politics and Class
Jewish Voice for Labour continues to offer education opportunities and most recently JVL’s Antiracist Alliance Network (ArAN) organised a session on “Race, Identity Politics & Class”. These are videos of the two presentations, firstly from Dr. Toyin Agbetu and the second from Pragna Patel.
There was an appetite for further debate and work on this and we will be looking at this issue again in the Autumn. Meanwhile your comments on, for example, how to balance the importance of highlighting the experiences and conditions that we share as working class people and their allies, with the importance of recognising, valuing and learning from the fact that experiences and oppression are different depending on our identity. However, we should not focus on that to the extent that we drift into division, which will work only in the interests of the ruling class.
