People of Black ethnicities are well known to be disproportionately burdened by coronavirus and have poorer health outcomes. Public health messages encouraged physical activity during the pandemic as it is evidenced to positively affect the immune system, however people of Black ethnicities are often reported as failing to achieve the recommended daily amount. Health message framing during COVID-19 specifically in relation to ethnicity and physic…

For Thai-American artist Skowmon Hastanan, the slave ship relates not only to the transatlantic trade of the past, but also to…

It takes its cue from the cultural theorist Stuart Hall's keen assessment: "The fact is that `black' has never been just there.
