"Still Breathing 100 Black Voices" Out now at all bookshops. Edited by Suzette Llewellyn & Suzanne Packer. Proceeds donated to The Ashdon Jazz Academy.
Listening to a powerful lecture on the inhumane work of Dr Sims - “Grandfather of gynaecology” - using Black female slaves in the development of gynae techniques. Always hard to hear but so important to hear, share and advocate for change #Anarcha#Lucy#Betsy#nevertobeforgotten
Thank you all for filling out our very first community survey. This morning, our ED @MsLadyPhyll met with our Head of Comms, Josh, and Head of Community Engagement, @aisha2_shaibu, to go through the findings and start plotting next steps! #forusbyus
I really recommend reading this book #stillbreathing#100voices Always relevant and especially now with the racism that has shown itself following the football final
I finally received my copy of “Still Breathing 100 Black Voices on Racism”. This is an account of racism that will make your blood boil.
Many thanks to @2021_still Suzette Llewellyn & Suzanne Packer, for inviting me and including my experience amongst many others.
Thank you for this message dear Daf. "It’s arrived. Wow. I’ve been looking through it. Not only is it brilliant and important and painful but it’s also a thing of beauty. x"
PS: I can’t tell you how happy I am for #SuzetteLlewellyn (the leading lady of ‘BUCKY’) Her new book with @PackerSuzanne@HarperCollins launches today TOO! 👏🏾
Again “The more they try to make you invisible, the more visible in their absence they become. Making you more visible”
