Anti Racism: Operation Black Vote
Operation Black Vote is the first initiative to focus exclusively on the black democratic deficit in the UK. It believe that without a strong political voice for African, Asian, Caribbean and other ethnic minorities the ideal of equality of opportunity regardless of race and colour, will remain an ideal. They recognise that building a future Britain in which African, Asian, Caribbean communities have a voice is a long term project. There is an entrenched cynicism about politics within the black community, especially among young people, which cannot be addressed easily , or overnight. It's comprehensive programme includes political education, participation and representation; it's goal is for a fair, just and inclusive democracy, one that allows our creativity, energy and talent to fulfill it's potential and enhance British society. A website packed with information that will be very useful to
black teenagers.
