Dr. Rowena Arshad OBE, Head of the School of Education at the University of Edinburgh, discusses the evolving identities and diversities in black and minority ethnic youth during Black History Month 2016. Recent engagements with the Scottish and EU Referendum show that young people are largely outward looking, comfortable within themselves and far more accepting of diversity and differences. Have their views outstripped those who govern and make policy? How in particular are black and minority ethnic young people self-representing and what opportunities do they have to contribute to tomorrow's agenda? Furthermore, when black and minority ethnic young people become politicised and engaged, will this be attractive or a cause of concern? Part of the Our Changing World lecture series, recorded on Tuesday 11th October 2016.
