Kids of Colour is a project for young people of colour aged 24 and under to explore 'race', identity and culture. We create spaces to challenge the racism that affects young people and their communities; building collective resistance and solidarity.

Kids of Colour provided invaluable support to the Manchester 10 and their family and friends over the years they went through the courts. I know that important work continues - I have seen it in action and I know it has made a massive difference

Thinking of the boys and their families. So many of us are devastated you are not home yet and hoping the end is near. Please use this for whatever the boys would like.

I’ve been following the tragic miscarriage of justice surrounding the Manchester 10. Can this money be used for book tokens for the boys and to pass on the message that so many of us care for them, they are not forgotten and we will fight for their release.

I am so outraged by the injustice of the Manchester 10 trial, and the obvious systemic racism involved. Please can this be used for books that these young men may want?

Professor Farida Vis is sadly leaving MMU. She was an active co-chair of the Race Staff Forum since summer 2020 and led the initiative to set up a research centre focused on the study of race and racism. As a farewell gesture, Farida has kindly requested that the funds raised as part of her leaving collection be donated to Kids of Colour.
