She shouldn’t be heard
She shouldn’t be seen. A powerful day by day account of an Afghan girl. A glimpse of a deep tragedy of today’s Afghanistan. Thank you ⁦@WhitlockMonica⁩ #Afghanistan https://t.co/iC0RTq5QU0

With every warm wish for Valentina’s speedy recovery

[Steve Rosenberg @BBCSteveR]

I miss Valentina & her kiosk. I miss her positivity & warm-heartedness. Valentina has been undergoing cancer treatment. To cheer her up I turned the Valentina’s Kiosk theme into a song & the legendary @BBCSingers have recorded it for her. Here is Valentina’s Song. @BBCRadio3

.@BBCSounds Invisible Souls uncovers the exploitation of fishers from the Philippines, Ghana and Sri Lanka by a Scottish company. Despite years of waiting and investigations, justice remains elusive. Listen and support the fight against modern slavery 👇

I just listened to this: a really powerful piece of reporting by @WhitlockMonica for File on 4. The stories she gathered from people who came to this country and worked in the fishing industry are shocking.

Harmonising wolves, burrowing boars, talkative shrews & a 'thrush nightingale' replying to whistles of the remarkable sound recordist of Polish forests, Izabel Dluzyk. As the producer @WhitlockMonica
says, Izabel did not let lack of sight hold her back...

Wedding trumpets in Bukhara, Uzbekistan. You can hear them on BBC Radio 3 https://t.co/RbXEjznQE3.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

On #WindrushDay @sikorskiradek we also remember 66 Polish refugees who were on the ship that made British history.

Survivors of Hitler’s war, Stalin’s Gulag and an escape that had taken them from Siberia, through Iran to the Caribbean.

Our history is richer than we realise.
