This is a must read. Government report on black people and their human rights in Britain today 👇

Personal conversations being had very publicly. Great to see space being made for them here. facebook.com/Channel4/video…

We need to spread and listen to more stories and voices like this young black Barrister. Imagine if there were more black judges who grew up on council estates. Would the justice system look very different? youtu.be/v8HOXpw19VI via @YouTube #Blacklivesmatter #racism #BLM

This was a great watch. Voter suppression has a long, racist history, this is today’s form of it.

EXCLUSIVE—Trump’s election campaign wanted to deter millions of Black Americans from voting in 2016. The ‘Deterrence’ project can be revealed after Channel 4 News obtained the database used by Trump's digital campaign team #DeterringDemocracy 📺WATCH NOW channel4.com/news/revealed-…

@KaijuKisser @AnthonyDawsonPt @OWC93 @Channel4News Agree. It’s this self fulfilling prophecy we need to fight

@Channel4News Hats off to @Channel4News for great journalism. 👏 Let’s call this what it is unacceptable #racism. The kind of #discrimination that intentionally holds back racial progress

@LetsTalkLTAR Really interesting read

@LetsTalkLTAR 👏 we want to see more of these conversations happening in public rather than behind closed doors - communication makes a difference.

@LetsTalkLTAR Listening to people's personal stories can be both educational and healing for people. Thanks for this

@nytimes What an amazing person he is. It should not be the job of POC to educate white people about racism. In this case restorative justice meant the school, with his help and consent, healed a wound, bridged a gap and made a positive change - something all antiracists want to see.

Rainier Harris, a senior at Regis High School, a Catholic high school on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, writes about how the school took a new and innovative approach to the racism he experienced there: "it’s the only way real change can be made." nyti.ms/3j2Rnls

The conclusion at the end of this article and idea of #restorativeracialjustice is really interesting to explore. To change systemic racism we need to reach across the divide and talk to each other. #racismintheuk #racism #discrimination #blm #justice #peace #love

Something that shooting the documentary highlighted again and again, #Racism is not just a political issue, it's a human issue and we are all human. #BLM #racismintheuk #BreonnaTaylor #GeorgeFloyd #nojusticenopeace #peace #love

@68wtf @EssexBarrister Exactly!

@EssexBarrister Thanks so much for sharing on here after such an unacceptable day. People need to read this sort of stuff because unless you’ve experienced it, you don’t know that this is a reality for so many professional people. It needs to stop. Awareness is the first step. Thank you.

I thought I’d explain what happened today because I’m absolutely exhausted and tbh I think a light needs to be shone on this. Especially given so many people like me seem to experience the same thing.

@EssexBarrister This is saddening, but great to hear people like you speaking up about your experiences. We need to hear people's personal stories. Our mission is to use these to educate and open minds. #Littleblacktruth #racismintheuk

Thankfully, the prosecutor and I were eventually able to have our conversation and the case proceeded smoothly. This really isn’t ok though. I don’t expect to have to constantly justify my existence at work.

This is an example of how racism is experienced daily. We need to be talking about these stories and sharing them. #Littleblacktruth #racismintheuk
