It’s great to see coverage by @prweekuknews of our new Taskforce for Diversity in Communications with @NHSProviders 👇 prweek.com/article/188868… #NHSCommsDiversity

Cringing at the amount of classism being spouted as anti-racism… the only people who benefit when you mock working class white folk for lack of qualifications or appearance etc are the middle and upper classes who orchestrate and sanction white supremacy from positions of power

Racism, discrimination & violence takes its toll on mental health & can precipitate mental illness in those who are vulnerable. All have the right to live & work in a safe environment. Look after yourselves, your families & communities. See our resources: rcpsych.ac.uk/mental-health/…

Thanks to the 300 people who came along today to talk about the impact of racism, Islamophobia and violence on them, their families, communities and our services. Your courage is enormous. The #allyship was palpable. It’s a privilege to be CEO @WYpartnership and be alongside you.

Black and brown people’s right to exist in safety shouldn’t rest on their ability/willingness to serve the rest of the population. Also let’s call racism and Islamophobia what it is. Words have meaning. 3/3

The labour of black and brown people without seeing their humanity - that’s sort of the reason race/racism was invented. Playing into this narrative that there are “good” (and therefore bad) immigrants isn’t helpful, however well-intentioned 2/

I really appreciate the support I’m seeing on here in the wake of the riots. But. These “an immigrant saved my life” posts aren’t necessarily doing what they’re intended to…it’s perfectly possible within our current structures to benefit from 1/

A core and fundamental part of racism is DISTRACTION!!!! Mosques are being brutally attacked, and the media are asking, ‘Why is it so important to you to use the word Islamophobia?’ I beg your bloody pardon? They know exactly what this is, but their job is to frustrate you, so I refuse to join the circus. I beg of you, please do not indulge in this vile gaslighting.

We offer our utmost solidarity to Muslim communities and people of colour affected by the racist violence unfolding across the country.

Even if Imane Khelif were transgender and/or intersex, she shouldn't be dissected and discriminated against. It’s great that a lot of folks are defending her, but don't let your empathy end there. Trans and intersex folks deserve dignity and respect as well.

Difficult but important read about the experiences of Black staff working in PR and comms. Essential information for anyone looking to make a change

If the first thing you say about trans people is about bathrooms or sports & not about how to make the world safer for these beautiful children of God, you need real help.

Thank you to the @NHSC_BMELeaders for asking me what #FreeToBeMe means to me as part of @SAHM_UK For me it’s about the intersectionality lens that being someone of SA heritage may have, which for me is also about being a Muslim woman too #SouthAsianHeritageMonth #NHSMuslimWoman

I can not think of another organisation, which has survived so many reports demonstrating a deep racist toxic culture, where those responsible are trusted to create a new culture and no one resigns.

Today's scribbles watching people cheer a man promoting murder, to cries of 'we will win'.
