What is it like to live as a black person in the UK?

Posted on August 21, 2020 by honestaboutmyfaith

If we want to take a stand against racism then we need to educate ourselves so we can have a better understanding. I am grateful to Keegan and his sister Dianah fo speaking about their experiences as black people living in Cambridge.

'Micro-aggressions are hard to deal with mentally' says Keegan.

He and his sister Dianah live in Cambridge and these are their experiences as black people in the city. They recorded and sent this video to us via @BBCUpload https://t.co/GZcvPJM9Zg pic.twitter.com/HKVITY3Mp7

About honestaboutmyfaith

Hi, my name is Graeme and I’m married to a very patient wife. We have 4 children, 2 rabbits, a terrapin (and not a lot of peace and quiet!). I’m a Regional Minister for the Eastern Baptist Association in the UK (the views expressed in this blog are my own) and I am especially interested in making Church accessible to people who have no church background and also in how we disciple people in order to equip them to live out their faith in the 21st Century.
