Erwin James was always so generous with his time and it was a privilege to work with him. Everyone at Safe Ground is really saddened by this news; his was a really, really important voice.

Just a few of the beautiful pieces of work that resonated with us at @KoestlerArts today. We're so proud of patron and long time friend of Safe Ground @JTaylorTrash who curated this years exhibition, 'In Case of Emergency'. The exhibition closes on Sunday, catch it while you can!

We are dedicating some time to a longer piece of writing about recent conversations we've been involved in concerning identity, persona, language, safety and code-switching. In the meantime, what does 𝗦𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 mean to you? ripgermain.com/gidiup

'Screwface' by artist #RIPGermain recently prompted a conversation with boys involved in the #criminallegalsystem, about the black male experience, particularly around stereotypes, assumptions and performance of self.

A fantastic @Safe_Ground #ManUp presentation from our HMP Altcourse group. Challenging conversations around masculinity/prisons/needs and power. “This gave me confidence.’ I wish learning would have been like this at school’ ‘This is the first time I’ve ever finished something ’

In the face of it all, we urgently need to consider our personal and collective coping strategies during a time when it feels like so much is out of our hands and unfolding out of reach. As difficult as it can be, let's continue to think critically and speak openly.
