Happy Birthday, Emmett Till. He would've been 81 years old today.

At just 14, two white men kidnapped and brutally murdered him through mutilation for 'whistling' at a white woman.
Several decades later, Carolyn Bryant admitted to lying that Emmett Till made a pass at her.

Thomas Sankara was a revolutionary African leader.

He drove out French imperialism from Burkina Faso and withdrew from IMF and made the country non-reliant on foreign aid.

He was assassinated in a coup led by his close ally, Blaise Compaoré supported by French imperialists

Britain faces the worst cost-of-living crisis in a generation.

⬆️Energy bills
⬆️Food prices

❄️Educators pay

It doesn't have to be this way – you can do something about it.

@BBCPolitics @BBCNews How on Earth are some tories managing to blame Johnson and Sunak’s *actual crimes* on two of the many professions that actually kept this country going during a pandemic? Teachers and nurses used as punching bags again!

@zkellett Behaviour management me: shut down the conversation asap
The real me: it’s definitely wheels!

[Alex @ACNHistory]

Planned and delivered a fantastic lesson for year 8 on the MAIN causes of WW1.

Class on task throughout, spent most of the lesson circulating, conversing and correcting.

5 minutes before the end

“Sir are there more wheels than doors in the world?”

All hell breaks loose
