You have heard from the women, you will hear from our men too today #YouTalkWeListen x

[Michelle Charters OBE @M_Charters]

I have purposely not spoken until today because of the pain I felt, but today I introduce you to the voices of Liverpool Black women and men who 'Speak Out About Racism'. #YouTalkWeListen @Kuumba_Imani @jezzahezza Want to know how we feel, listen.

British journalist John Masouri has always had 'so much things to say' about Reggae, he put it ALL in one big book about every artist song, producer, event and story of the historic Reggae Seventies in Jamaica and the world. "A must-have reggae Bible" says Alex Wheatle. I agree.

Thank you to everyone who joined our Walk of Remembrance.

From powerful and emotional spoken word, to meaningful moments of connection through music and movement while we walked the streets, coming together like this is what our city does best ❤️💪🏾✊🏽✨

Good Night & Sweet Dreams ❤️💚🖤

Glad to know that this stupid, hate-filled crime has been erased from sight. The Jamaican, Caribbean and African women inspired by Mary Seacole will continue to give unselfish service to Britain's sick, despite continuing racism.
