  • 201: Raising Racism at Inquests
    Jul 3 2024
    In Episode 201 Emma-Louise Fenelon speaks to Emma Snell of JUSTICE and Christian Weaver, a barrister at Garden North Chambers about Achieving Racial Justice at Inquests: A Practitioner’s Guide (2024), a guide recently published by JUSTICE and INQUEST.
    His Honor Judge Mark Lucraft KC, Chief Coroner of England & Wales from 2016-2020 endorsed the guide saying the following:
    “This important guide equips practitioners and coroners to recognise, raise and investigate issues of race or racism when they arise, sensitively and without reticence. It is an invaluable resource, not only for promoting racial justice, but for improving fact finding, increasing racial awareness, and providing better representation to families.”

    Emma Snell is a Senior Legal Fellow at JUSTICE.
    Christian Weaver is a barrister at Garden Court North Chambers and the author of The Law in 60 seconds: A Pocket Guide to Your Rights, and of the upcoming Your Right to Protest: Understand It, Use It. For those interested in other publications from INQUEST, see here
