Branches will be aware that the CWU are strong supporters of the anti-racism movement. Therefore, in advance of this march in London we would like to provide a training opportunity for CWU representatives.
This one-day workshop ‘Defeating the narratives of Division’ will be facilitated by the Ella Baker School of Organising and will focus on the following topics:
What is the problem? A quick-fire group-based session on ‘what are the narrative of division issues in your workplace’ followed by ‘what are the solutions?’
Class alternatives to narratives of division A review of the economic and political choices that have led us to a point where too many of OUR people are looking to the right for solutions.‘Story of Us’ Exploring what it means to feel like you are in a unionised workplace, how we actively create that sense of class solidarity, and its role in helping us win at work.

It is time for the trade union movement to stand together against racism and division and call for the real solutions to the problems facing working people – fixing wealth inequality, rebuilding our public services and building workplace power in every sector.
