The fact that a Jewish director of a highly acclaimed film about the Holocaust, made in collaboration with the Auschwitz Museum, is being accused of *antisemitism* by right wingers simply because he decried the violence done to Palestinian civilians in his name says so much

Feels very fitting that this is how I found out he died. Just a sea of Barry Lyndon x 21 Savage edits. Farewell, Ryan O’Neal.

Lucius Blake only has two official credits on IMDB. But he may have been the most prolific black actor in early British cinema, with more than 30 silver screen appearances.

Hear how @MarcDavidJacobs discovered Blake's hidden career https://t.co/dKqErMoe4X

Was so happy and proud to be at MDJ's brilliant talk 🥰 Have a listen to his radio interview!

[Elena Angelides @ElenaAthena_]

Blake's works have been unearthed by researcher @MarcDavidJacobs, who thinks he might be the most prolific black actor in early British cinema.

Very much enjoyed setting up this segment & having Marc join us in the studio with the brilliant @BBCNuala today on Newshour 🎙️⬇️

I have heard MDJ talk and have no doubt this is going to be an evening very well spent. Book yerselves a place!

We did @thekiltwalk! 15 miles, 6 hours, and I only have one blister 🥳

I got the best cheerleading sign ever and we've raised over a grand for @ProjectScotland and @volunteer_scot - wowza!

A beautiful day discovering Gore Glen with @ecospaceship. Trees and water help when you're feeling heartsore. About 7.5 miles we reckon, Strava broke half way through.

It's all practice for @thekiltwalk raising funds for @volunteer_scot @ProjectScotland https://t.co/CyusLQCxpW

Training for @thekiltwalk continues. Today involved walking and talking for 7 miles on the @JohnMuirWay from North Berwick to Gullane.

Our first proper practice for the @thekiltwalk to raise money for @volunteering_uk and @ProjectScotland - my legs are feeling it! Much love and thanks if you fancy sending some pennies our way: https://t.co/CyusLQCxpW
