I've written up my recent work with @SV2G as a blog - Freedom and resistance: St Vincent in the age of Revolutions warwicklanguages.wordpress.com/2024/10/15/fre…

Last week my friend @D15Kate visited in Marlow the grave of George Alexander Gratton restored by @SV2G and the same day I found out that Windward Family is in Harewood House where George 'Bertie' Robinson was employed as a footman. Very much remembering their lives this #BHM

We are deeply sorry to hear of the passing of Lord Herman Ouseley, who died after a short spell of ill health last night. We send our deepest condolences to his family and friends at this time. May he Rest in Peace.

As we celebrate Black History Month 2024, let us embrace the theme of Reclaiming Narratives. This month invites us to reflect on the rich tapestry of stories that shape our understanding of Black history and culture. It is a time to honour the voices that have been silenced and to uplift the diverse experiences within the Black community. By reclaiming these narratives, we can foster a deeper appreciation for the contributions and resilience of Black individuals throughout history. Together, let us commit to learning, sharing, and amplifying these vital stories, ensuring they are acknowledged and celebrated for generations to come. #ReclaimingNarratives #BlackHistoryMonth #BHM2024

Racial discrimination is unjust and fundamentally affects peoples physical and mental health. One major factor is stress which over time increases the likelihood of dying too young. New report from @marmotihe is relevant for addressing health inequalities across the country.

On 23 August, International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition, we honour the 1791 Haitian uprising that helped end the transatlantic slave trade, reflecting on its causes, impact, and legacy across continents. #history #slavetrade #caribbean
