I can’t even praise Wizkid for the history he made because he really ended it on a sour note. The most sour note even, I hope he takes accountability, apologises & does better moving forward.

Join us in today in a vigil to reflect on the death of Sarah Everard, Sarah Reed and all those who have died at the hands of gendered and police violence. Bring flowers, all genders welcome.

at the end of Feb I'll be leaving The Advocacy Academy! Simply not enough superlatives to cover the range of emotions, it's been the ride of my life.

Never underestimate the power of young people to change the world.

The Halo Code pledge was created by Black activist group @thehalocltv, who say 20% of Black women feel pressure to straighten their hair at work despite legal protections.
