BAME

Not at a certain institution situated close to a diverse range of food & other shops with representation from the West Indies, Spain, Nigeria, Iran, Lebanon, Vietnam, China, India... It now appears to have every single one of its board and senior management positions occupied by those in the AC1 classification.... wonder how that happened?

I totally agree with the opinion but BAME people have to work a lot harder than others to achieve the same level of success or at least a step progress. The recruitment system has to change, there has to be at least one BAME executive member in the board, favouritism has to be removed and a lot of things have to change (I am talking about NHS). I am positive that things will change and everyone will be equally treated regardless of ethnicity.

Mr. Beeknoo, your comments reminded me of a Queens Christmas Address in which she characterized the UK and the colonies as "like one big happy family". The "Great" in Great Brittan came and was built upon exploitation and discrimination, and here I am thinking more broadly abut about exploitation based on gender, race and class. One question is, should the wider community "promote" BAME communities and individuals or should, as was advocated by the suffrage movement and more recently protesters following George Floyd's death, or should we all start to address the systemic discrimination that exists in most countries around the world? However, I support your approach and ask if you have any ideas how the wider community can move from the general ide to specific actions with measurable outcomes in pursuit of your goal.
