The #WindrushScandal is not over!

Writing thesis: gov response to the Windrush Injustice from a #CRT perspective

Less than half of black Britons feel proud to be British, landmark study says

Campaigners have described the findings as a wake-up call and further evidence of the “chronic level of racial disparities” that black Britons face in the UK. https://t.co/wBoBImpd3i

Cruella Braverman proving that the #PsychosisOfWhiteness is not just for those with white skin. Beware Tory identity politics, she is able to make the racist speeches that would get a White home secretary sacked

This #Windrush group won't be missed as it achieved nothing; good people resigned in disgust ages ago, a couple serious ones who stayed were ignored, & the rest were just happy to be invited to something. Happy for anyone in the know to convince me otherwise, with examples.

Many of you have asked how to support Roy whose story was featured by Diane Taylor in this week's Guardian. A befriender has kindly agreed to host a Go Fund Me campaign & Roy, aware of your support, has asked us to pass on his thanks. Details at the link:

@alanalentin I like your racial technology which goes deeper.. I see this cypher/code argument as mostly relating to surface level public conversations, debates etc..I think it's an important initial conceptual step to then go on to the technologies of control etc.

@alanalentin Yeah could be that in the UK context public discourse about 'immigration' is really about people of colour I. E. 'race'.. I've read this from different scholars but can't think of any names at mo!

The Tories trashed racism and sexism as ‘woke’ concerns. Now our public services are paying the price | Nesrine Malik https://t.co/uYcxxGoeRU

@alanalentin I advise breaking into chunks as it will piss you off 😆

[𝔻𝕒𝕟 𝔼𝕝𝕝𝕚𝕤 @borderology]

@alanalentin Can't believe his Powell apologist article. Never seen so many uninformed (intentionally?) clichés about immigration in such a small space!

@BigPapaT101 @ppvernon @ameliagentlemen @JacquiMckenzie6 Couldn't agree with you more, other than that!

[𝔻𝕒𝕟 𝔼𝕝𝕝𝕚𝕤 @borderology]

Curious abt especially 'EU' and 'Rest of world' outnumbering Jamaica and the Caribbean - which most coverage has focussed on (making #WindrushScandal seem smaller) who are they? any insights/explanation? tags for reach, plz RT thanks! @ppvernon @ameliagentlemen @jacquiMckenzie6

[𝔻𝕒𝕟 𝔼𝕝𝕝𝕚𝕤 @borderology]

@BigPapaT101 @ppvernon @ameliagentlemen @JacquiMckenzie6 On the contrary, I've been researching this for 4 years and my core argument is based around how the 'Windrush scandal' was a spectacle, and gov responses served the political elite, and white supremacy more broadly, than it did secure justice for the Windrushers.

1/ Who's afraid of Critical Race Theory? Usually, people who misunderstand it. Take the notion of "interest convergence," a key insight of CRT. The idea has 2 components, one of which is commonsensical, the other of which is a bit more radical...

I actually believe things are getting worse because racism is not taken seriously and I have lived this reality my whole life. It is too often reduced to white individuals thus avoiding the systemic and institutionalised practices shielding rife racists.

Frozen pensions: injustices faced by Windrush generation in spotlight https://t.co/MGFUhjwD5f

[charlotte @ctobierre]

I’ve spent the last 3 years trying to get pension loss added to the compensation scheme, State or private pension loss is something most claimants should be compensated for and yet the home office refuses to add it. We need an independent scheme!
