About This Podcast

The Stephen Lawrence Research Centre (SLRC) opened its doors in 2019 and is a uniquely positioned physical space in the UK Higher Education landscape to study the politics of race and racisms in its many forms and guises. The SLRC is the current home of the Stephen Lawrence Exhibition and the Stephen Lawrence Archive. The archive was kindly donated to De Montfort University by Baroness Doreen Lawrence of Clarendon, Stephen's mother and former Chancellor of DMU and has inspired the conversations in this series in memory of Stephen.
