“The pressure to condemn serves a purpose. It seeks to limit our capacity to agitate. Often, it is weaponized to undermine us, or to shift the focus away from structural and state racisms, and onto our communities.” - Remi Joseph-Salisbury, I Refuse to Condemn

Join our #BecauseWe'veRead December 2020 unit as we dive into the newly-released book of powerful essays, I Refuse to Condemn.

For this conversation, we'll be joined by the editor and contributors of I Refuse to Condemn whose essays we’re reading this month! They are incredible activist-scholars, -researchers, and change-makers from the UK & USA, and will be reflecting on experiences and resistance to demands of condemnation all around us.

Join us for a conversation with Asim Qureshi, editor of I Refuse to Condemn and CAGE Research Director; Tarek Younis, critical clinical psychologist and lecturer; and social geographers and academic researchers Shereen Fernandez and Azeezat Johnson.
