#BLACKINARCHITECTURE UK

from Architecture is Political Hosted by Melissa Daniel

Black In Architecture is a hashtag to amplify the voices of Black/Black British architectural professionals and students in the UK. It is also a black-led research initiative, proposing a new approach to achieving racial justice and ending structural racism and inequity in architecture. This is a start in defining the changes that we, as black people, want to demand in architecture and across the various dimensions of the profession - in education, practice, recruitment, professional memberships, regulatory bodies, media, events, to name a few. The aim is to gain richer insight into the persistent racial injustice in the profession, and how it often impacts on the everyday lives of black people in architecture - at home, at the workplace, in finding work and business opportunities, in higher education and in other situations. Juliet Sakyi-Ansah ARB RIBA AGIA, is a Ghanaian-British architect based in the U.K. She is currently studying for a PhD in architecture and the built environment, and is the Founder and Lead at The Architects' Project. Also in the conversation is Irvine Toroitich , Shade Abdul, RIBA and Zubaydah Jibrilu Website: https://blackinarchitecture.uk/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/blackinarch Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tap.narratives/
