Trevor Noah talks about how moving up financially, seems to destroy the dynamic of true community.

When you're rich, you start "buying" a community to help you, instead of working with your existing community & family. Deep.

[The Culturist @the_culturist_]

The 12 Apostles risked their lives to spread Christianity across the globe.

All but one were murdered for doing so — brutally.

Here's what happened to them, starting with Judas... (thread) 🧵

I haven’t done a thread in a while & I wanted to do one just to recap what Black & Asian people as well as immigrants have had to endure over the last week in the UK.

"There’s an incredibly important conversation that needs to be had. But it's not about boats... and it certainly isn't about people attacking shops and looting Greggs."

Historian David Olusoga talks to @JonnyDymond about the need for a conversation about immigration.

🚨 Some people did try and warn us that fascism was around the corner.

[#CharitySoWhite @CharitySoWhite]

To every charity that put out BLM statements or participated in black square summer, your silence right now as racist violence targets Black and brown communities is deafening.

Speak out. Support your racialised staff. Work towards dismantling systemic racist oppression.

This is phenomenal! Can we just address Ghetts as a modern day Shakespeare!?

Muitos pediram para que eu ignorasse, outros tantos disseram que minha luta era em vão e que eu deveria apenas "jogar futebol".

Mas, como sempre disse, não sou vítima de racismo. Eu sou algoz de racistas. Essa primeira condenação penal da história da Espanha não é por mim. É por todos os pretos.

Que os outros racistas tenham medo, vergonha e se escondam nas sombras. Caso contrário, estarei aqui para cobrar. Obrigado a La Liga e ao Real Madrid por ajudarem nessa condenação histórica. Vem mais por aí… 🙏🏾✊🏿

Disturbing news as it has been discovered that WHO sterilizes women in Africa

Your Comments on this...

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

Natalie Elphicke was suspended from the House of Commons for trying to improperly influence the judge in her now ex-husband's sexual assault case. She was welcomed with open arms onto the Labour benches.

Neil Coyle made racially disparaging comments to a journalist of colour, and had a complaint of sexual harassment upheld against him. His apology was accepted, and he was welcomed back into the Labour Party.

Barry Sheerman, a pro-Starmer MP, joked how there'd been a "run on silver shekels" when two Jewish businessmen missed out on peerages. He apologised, and there was no further action.

After doing everything that was asked of her, and apologising, Diane Abbott has been ritually humiliated under Keir Starmer's leadership of the Labour Party. The UK's first black, female MP has been left hanging by the party she has served for decades, and clearly held to a different standard than her white parliamentary colleagues.

Would you trust the Labour Party on handling racism fairly while in government? I certainly wouldn't.

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

On Sky News just now: compare how Neil Coyle and Barry Sheerman were treated to Diane Abbott.

It's obvious that the UK's first black female MP was held to a different standard than her white parliamentary colleagues.

[Tom Pollard @PollardTom]

The words of advice at the end of this brilliant @Voa1234 response to Rishi Sunak's 'sick note culture' speech should be a guiding mantra for benefits policy:

"Let's wind our necks in, understand how people actually live, and give people actual support"

With her comments on chattel slavery, Kemi Badenoch shows a poor grasp of our history but an excellent grasp of selfishness…The Guardian https://t.co/S9ggwJp9OC
