The SCS has sent the following letter to management at Goldsmiths, University of London in support of Dr Kesewa John , who is at threat of redundancy. Please RT, and sign this petition, which was started by students of the MA Black British History change.org/p/save-black-b…

Dr Dr Kesewa John, convenor of MA Black British History, has not even been in post a full year & now faces redundancy along with the collapse of this vital course. Goldsmiths, University of London management Shame on you. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/u… Pls sign & amplify the petition: change.org/p/save-black-b…

When I was at the Institute of the Americas, Kesewa was one of my tutors - she was always majorly supportive and willing to give feedback at a moments notice (not to mention her talents as a scholar) - what is happening at goldsmiths is a blatant injustice !
