1. We are the leaders of a new movement. We are young women and men united in
our commitment to justice, equality and respect. We are not held back by fears,

hesitation and compromises. We are proudly fighting for a future of equality and
integration, because that is the only road to progress for this country.

2. We are an integrated, youth- led civil rights movement. Our aim is to uproot
racism and sexism from society. We are black, African, Caribbean, South Asian, East
Asian, Turkish, Kurdish, South American, Portuguese and other ethnic minority youth and
anti-racist white youth who are part of Britain’s multiracial society. Our energy, courage
and readiness to speak the truth about injustice can change this society for the better.

3. We speak the plain truth about racism, so that we can root racist practices and
behaviour out of the education system and make a success of integration and achieve
equality. We demand that schools, colleges and universities recognise our right as
students to speak out about racism, without fear that we will get into trouble or be told
that we are being offensive.

4. We are proud to live in a multiracial country. Britain has been built, and is still
being built by people of many different races and cultures. We are all part of this
society. None of us are second-class. We stand united against the inhuman treatment of
immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers. We stand united against the acute anti-Muslim
racism in present-day Britain. Muslim women have the right to choose what they wear.
This includes the right to exercise their religious beliefs about dress. We all have the
right to celebrate our different cultures and determine our own identities.

5. We do not accept racist slurs, abuse and mistreatment. We refuse to accept racist
mistreatment from individuals or from institutions. We stand against racist harassment
and brutality from the police and against racist policies from the government.

6. We reject the idea that integration means giving up our identity and culture.
We have the right to be British as the people we are: as Africans, as Asians, as
Muslims, as whatever our cultural or national identity is.

7. We fight for an education system where equality is real for everyone, and
where our cultures are treated with equal respect. We demand equal, high quality
education for all. Our schools, colleges and universities must be places where we can
flourish and develop our creative powers to the full, and not be undermined by racist or
sexist stereotyping, discrimination and harassment.

8. We fight for schools, colleges and universities that reflect the diversity of
modern Britain. Our schools and colleges should be racially mixed so that we can
overcome discrimination and break down the barriers of prejudice. Integrated education
that actively challenges racism and sexism will move the whole society forward. We
demand a national school integration plan. We demand that the top universities admit
ethnic minority students in proportion to their numbers nationally.

9. We can win - When we act together, collectively, and take on racism we have
enormous social power. Our task is to organise our social power to transform British
society.
