Too many women are forced to remain silent about their abuse as they are afraid they won’t be believed. It's up to all of us to educate our children to help bring an end to a toxic culture of disbelief, a culture that isolates survivors and silences their voices.

Had such a brilliant time delivering our last anti-racism national session. Excited now to support 10 local authority EPS’ in the next stage of their anti-racism implementation journeys!

Enjoyed working with Fordbank staff this afternoon supporting them to develop their NVR framework to actively resist racism. Fordbank staff, I was proud of your level of self-reflection today & can’t wait to see how this work evolves 😀

The riots may have stopped, but systematic racism prevails, the prisoners will come out of prison with the same beliefs - ‘white silence’ at the level of the individuals, institutions, organisations- is what we need to break

Although the fascists are massively outnumbered by anti-racist counter protestors there is a worryingly large number of Nazis and far-right freaks on the streets of Glasgow today #NaeNazi #StopRacism -#StopFarRight

It’s like looking in a mirror. 🪞

Check out the joint attention between this little one (10 weeks) and her big brother - who’s teaching an absolute master class in how to stimulate baby’s brain.

I mean, are these two locked in or what?

Brother is at baby’s level, up close, face-to-face and grinning from ear to ear.

Their eye contact is unbroken. No distractions… just them.

And he’s mirroring her vocalizations in a way that’s obviously thrilling for baby. Look at her face light up.

It’s a great reminder that parents aren’t the only ones who can engage in serve and return interactions.

Just beautiful.

MOST POWERFUL counterprotest to #TommyRobinson is the COMMUNITY of #Govanhill 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 “THIS IS HOW THE PEOPLE of COMMUNITIES LIKE OURS SHOW UP.

Increasing use of neuroaffirming language (as opposed to traditional medical language) may gradually impact conceptualizations of autism and prejudice regarding autistic people…recent study looks great @NAITScotland you might like this if you haven’t seen it already…

[RGK @beccygibsonk]

I am so sorry this happened to your brother. I am also so sorry your brother didn’t feel safe enough to report it
