"What social media thinks" might be a concern of a #politician but must not be a concern of the judges. Social Media could have influenced #juries but a #judge must not be influenced by #SocialMedia. 1/4

Speakers analysed how both are reproducing narratives of racial discrimination & inequalities in a context that is informed by minoritising communities, #problematising specific religious #values, & essentialising the signification of social, religious, & cultural identities.
