Analysis: Jason Arday’s death will send shockwaves through a divided academia

" For the University of Cambridge now there will be the difficult task of holding together an academic community divided and shocked by the controversy and now the death of Jason Arday.

Rows about research rarely break through into national debate, but this was Cambridge, an elite university whose history and reputation has been built on excellence in research, original thinking and academic integrity." There has been deep unease among some academics of colour who feel the ferocity of the debate was due to Jason Arday being a young black academic.
