City of Thorp issued the following announcement on August 4.
With the recent rise of Black Lives Matter protests, many have started to question the use of the term BAME. An acronym for Black, Asian, and minority ethnic, it is meant to describe the inequalities faced by minorities and to measure diversity within organisations. But far too often BAME is used as an easy and lazy gateway to lump all “non-whites” together to show false signs of diversity and steady progress. More than 7.6 million people in the UK are defined under this single umbrella term.
