1/6 🧵I’ve given a few talks recently about trans-Atlantic slavery in British history, to people who really don’t want to hear it. I don’t mean haranguing shoppers in Oxford Street, but talks to church, community and business groups comprised of small ‘c’ conservative White people who’ve been willing to hear me out, even if they find it uncomfortable. I’ve kept it factual and based it on two main databases: slavevoyages.org on British participation in the trans-Atlantic slave ‘trade’ and ucl.ac.uk/lbs/ on slave ownership. On every occasion, there have been two main objections. In case its useful for others, this thread sets out what they are, along with my own attempts to answer:

Fascinating look into what swimmers feel and what they interpret from those feelings. bit.ly/3ZXBpiR @gmc_swim @HARTResearch @AdEvansSport Swimmers have an acute awareness of how things feel, and when what they’re feeling is associated with positive or negative outcomes

'The grass belongs to the players' - Robbie Deans Good principle for youth sports coaches and parents alike. Game time is the kids' show. Shouting from the sidelines is at best a distraction... ...and at worst risks hindering not only kids' enjoyment but their development.
