As opposed to other forms of trauma, where there may have been a car-crash or a loss, a person can address the emotions arising from dealing with this event in the past. However, racism is ongoing, and the cumulative effect of everyday reminders of racism, places an enormous mental burden on the shoulders of people of colour.<\/p><p>Confronting this burden is not necessarily a relief, either, and can be an isolating experience. Everyday racism is so frequent and insidious, it can be perceived as near normal, and Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) people have long had to minimise their own experiences and emotions in order to get on with their lives, while living in a racist society.<\/p><p>Furthermore, internalised racism sometimes results in people of colour not wanting to acknowledge the impact of racism. Either, this would be too traumatic, or it would make them feel singled out. Care should be taken to acknowledge the impact of racism, and its structural consequences, while also being sensitive to the hidden wounds of racial trauma and not make assumptions about how these may manifest for individuals.<\/p><p>Some people of colour will feel that they have never experienced racism, and that they don\u2019t see it as an issue. It is important to note that regardless of individual experiences or understanding, people of colour <strong>as a social group<\/strong> still face discrimination in Scotland and the fight for anti-racist education and workplaces is essential.<\/p><p>The teaching workforce in Scotland remains acutely lacking in diversity, with only 1.8% of teachers being BAME, and less than 1% in promoted posts. There are many reasons as to why this is, but one of them likely is the fact that young pupils of colour may not want to return to educational establishments where they themselves have experienced racial trauma.<\/p><p><strong>How can we expect to attract more people of colour to education professions \u2013 if the working environments are unsafe? <\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f6604b elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"7f6604b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7fb9ef7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7fb9ef7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In 2021-22 the EIS conducted research into Councils\u2019 recruitment practices pertaining to BAME staff.<br \/><br \/><\/p><ul><li>The Scottish Government\u2019s commitment is to reach 4% by 2030, but year on year data reports show this target will be nowhere near reached by then if progress continues at its current pace.
