Child Q, Black Children Overpoliced and Disproportionately Sanctioned

À propos de cet épisode

<p>In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Anna and Dr. Aziza from Black Female Doctors UK, a non-profit organisation of medics, dentists, surgeons, scientists and PhD holders aimed at empowering and supporting each other and our community. We discuss Child Q and how Black students are over policed, usually less supported and disproportionately sanctioned by the educational system.</p><br><p>Black female Doctors has a goal to raise much needed awareness and funds to help support the educational and legal needs of ethnic minority children who have been unjustly treated by schools and the police. The intention is for the funds raised to be given to a charity called 'Just for Kids Law' who exist to help children and young people overcome all the difficulties they face, from problems at school and issues with immigration status to trouble with the police. They are also the charity representing Child Q, whose appalling treatment from her school and the police, being strip searched, has left us all heartbroken and devastated.</p><br><p>Follow <a href="https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Blackfemaledrs-UK?utm_source=whatsapp&amp;utm_medium=fundraising&amp;utm_content=Blackfemaledrs-UK&amp;utm_campaign=pfp-whatsapp&amp;utm_term=88ec17e36963430eb2039c003e06b35d" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this</a> link to support and learn more about this initiative. </p><br><p>Dope Black Dads is a place where we are changing the narrative and having progressive conversations about black fathers with the aim of creating a safe digital space within the community.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Join the conversation and the community online through our social channels:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Twitter: @DopeBlackDads</p><p>Instagram: @DopeBlackDads</p><p>Facebook Page: @DopeBlackDads</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you want to get in touch with us, email us at hello@dopeblackdads.org or follow our conversations in-depth on our Facebook Group by searching 'Dope Black Dads'.&nbsp;</p><p>Welcome to <strong>The Marvyn Harrison Podcast</strong> — a story-driven conversation exploring identity, fatherhood, masculinity, relationships, culture, politics, sport, and modern life.</p><p>In each episode, Marvyn Harrison sits down with leading thinkers, creatives, athletes, policymakers, and cultural voices to unpack the defining moments that shaped them.
