Critical Thinking

"Marc Wadsworth is an antiracism and antisemitism campaigner and a founder member of the Anti-Racist Alliance (ARA) and the antiracist campaigns involving the murdered teenager Stephen Lawrence.

Marc made a documentary Divided by Race United in War and Peace about his father's fellow Caribbean war veterans and their struggles against colour prejudice and racism. The BBC remade the film, with Marc as a producer, broadcast in May 2015 as Fighting for King and Empire: Britain’s Caribbean Heroes.

Marc helped to secure "Black Sections" (caucuses) within the Labour Party, first tabled in 1983. Marc was then founder of the Anti-Racist Alliance in 1991 and helped set up the campaign for justice after the 1993 murder of Stephen Lawrence. The ARA succeeded in getting human rights lawyer Geoffrey Bindman to draft a bill to make racial harassment and racial violence specific criminal offences, proposals which became law years later."
