Remi Reports - Freelance Writer

Only 1.3% of Speech and Language Therapists in the UK are Black with over 90% being white. This impacts on ethnic minorities receiving treatment as well as proffesionals in practice. I wrote a piece for @theleaduk to find out more about this: thelead.uk/speech-therapy…

Thank you to those who have showed interest in this article. It is now published and available to read on @BlackBalladUK here: blkbld.uk/SXAofa

Looking for Black British women fans of books that have been banned in the UK by Black women authors e.g. Michelle Obama's Becoming, Reni Eddo-Lodge's Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race, Girl Woman Other by Bernardine Evarist #journorequest #pressrequest

Censorship is rising in the UK, and books by Black authors are among the recent literature being targeted. In this article for @blackballad I share my thoughts and interview Nova Reid whose book was banned in a school library, on thoughts on censorship. blkbld.uk/SXAofa

@BlessedIsM I didn’t even know they were all banned in the uk, I have all of these titles. What happened?

It's come to my attention that this tweet has misled many into thinking the UK banned these books all over. Just to clarify they have been banned in a particular Manchester school. Apologies for any confusion

Thank you for highlighting this. It wasn't my intention to mislead. But just for clarity these books haven't been banned UK wide but in a particular Manchester school
