LSE Limelight #20: Anti-racism student movements

“I thought it would be really interesting to look into what exactly is a student movement, what exactly does it achieve, why students decide to use occupation as a form of protest.” – Eileen Gbagbo, third-year International Relations student at LSE.

In this episode of LSE Limelight, we talk to Eileen Gbagbo about an article she wrote on anti-racist student occupation movements. We talk about the purpose of these movements, why they are relevant and how they set out to shed light on the prevalence of different forms of racism.

Presented and produced by Beatriz Silva.
