A little #Throwback to George’s duet with Mary J. Blige which was released 24 years ago today! “He became my friend and he was one of the most beautiful people.” - @maryjblige speaking to @BBCRadio2 about working with George ❤️

George became a trailblazer for LGBTQ+ acceptance & was proud of his sexuality. He came out in 1998 & fought for everyone's right to be who they want to be & love who they wanted to love. 🌟Vote for George to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame: vote.rockhall.com

These damning figures reflect what we already know to be true - that institutional racism exists at every juncture of the criminal justice system. These systemic issues demand a systemic response. theguardian.com/world/2023/feb…

Today we celebrate the life and enduring legacy of academic, activist and cultural studies pioneer Stuart Hall, born on this day in 1932 The impact of Hall's anti-racist scholarship on our understanding of British culture and society cannot be overstated runnymedetrust.org/blog/black-his…

"Kindness In your eyes, I guess You heard me cry You smiled at me Like Jesus to a child" #OnThisDay in 1996, George released ‘Jesus to a Child’ as the lead single from his third studio album ‘Older’. Do you remember the first time you heard this song? 🎶

George Michael, 25 June 1963 - 25 December 2016. George passed away on Christmas Day six years ago. Since then this day has been a special one to remember him, his music and the difference he made to the lives of people affected by HIV. You’re very missed, George.

It’s been six years since we lost the beautiful George Michael. When he was arrested and outed for cottaging his ‘apology video’ featured mirrorballs and urinals… it doesn’t get more iconic than that.

What a wonderfully, unexpected Christmas gift 🎄 George would be so thoroughly pleased @officialcharts

@NanaBon1975 @thebethkelly Wow! And just what you deserve Beth!!

That’s all of us…

I love this man with all my heart @rizwanahmed

'Rishi Sunak isn't even British!' Sangita Myska eviscerates this racist caller who says Tory party member won't vote for Sunak because 'he doesn't represent Britain'. @SangitaMyska

@LBC @SangitaMyska Thank you Sangita, you were quite brilliant Just to be clear, we brown people don’t have to do ANYTHING to prove our Britishness to people like this or anyone for that matter

@NanaBon1975 @AnaPopovici8 @WandsworthPCFSW Just brilliant to see!!! Great stuff!
