If you have experienced any form of racism on a Sciences Po Campus and feel comfortable sharing your experience for publication by Pour Nous please share your story with us below.

Why are we gathering your testimonies?
1) To create a platform for people to share their experiences, to talk about them, to be heard and hopefully, to feel a bit less lonely seeing their experiences mirrored in other people's testimonies.
2) To document and archive mistreatment and marginalisation which often fall through the cracks of regular reporting mechanisms.
3) To continue to build a body of evidence against negligent and denialist actors and voices within our university and beyond to which we can advocate our demands.

Back in 2020, Pour Nous' first step involved collecting your testimonies on how racism permeates Sciences Po and overwhelmingly impacts the lives of Black, Indigenous, and students of color. Your testimonies formed the basis of our first Anti-Racism report and represents one of the completely student-led efforts to document racism at this institution. Given the institutional and French context actively preventing desperately needed conversations on racism, these testimonies are an invaluable medium to combat impunity for offenders and demonstrate its systemic nature.

Please feel free to reach out to us at contact.pournous@gmail.com if you have any questions or concerns about sharing your stories.

*Unfortunately, we do not have the resources nor the certification to provide professional emotional, psychological or psychiatric support. We understand the importance of finding help that is sensitive and trained to recognize and treat the effects of racial trauma. We recommend you visit this website which aggregates a list of France-based psychologists and psychiatrists who fight against systemic oppression: https://psysafeinclusifs.wixsite.com/psysafe/get_involved. The list includes French, English, and Spanish-speaking professionals as well as LGBTQIA+, disability, and SGBV specialists.

**For legal reasons, we will anonymize not only the sender of the testimony, but also all individuals named in it.
