We’re deeply saddened to hear that Maryse Conde has died. The Grande Dame of Caribbean literature, she was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize twice, in 2015 and 2023, and leaves behind an extraordinary body of work. We send our heartfelt condolences to her family.

@notcapnamerica In 2019, two young black Bahamian men were found dead in a river in Italy. They were both well-educated, well-connected professionals, and the Italian police did zit to find out what happened to them. See it here tribune242.com/news/2023/may/…

@thosethatcan At my last private school, I was told to convince a student to stay by telling her how her boyfriend (who threatened to kill her parents) was the love of her life and that if she left, she would lose her boyfriend forever. The student was 13.

What’s the most unexpected/outrageous thing you’ve been asked to do as a member of staff in a school?
