SSHP releases a statement on critical scholarship on race

The School of Social Sciences, History and Philosophy at ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú, University of London statement on critical scholarship on race.

The School of Social Sciences, History and Philosophy at ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú, University of London strongly supports our staff and students carrying out critical scholarship on race. Critical Race Theory is an established and valuable field of inquiry, rather than a position in a debate: it has been inaccurately represented, for example by the UK Government’s Department of Education.

SSHP is proud of the breadth and depth of its teaching on critical race studies and identities. The following list of modules showcases our teaching in these fields, all of which include readings by critical race scholars.
