Thanks to Dr Michelle Yaa Asantewa for running such a great event at the River Ravensbourne Festival in South East London the other day. It was fantastic. She led the river blessing ritual here to honour Mama Osun. What a brilliant day! 🧵⬇️

By the way, the collage of tarmac cowpats is from one street alone: our beautiful Promenade, 110m x36m in its main pedestrianised section. That’s how bad this problem has become! That’s why we’ve acted as we have.

In 1824, a terrible accident saw a detainee and his brother burned to death inside.
