@ImmyKaur I hear you and I treasure you for the courage you and others display daily. You speak not just for yourself - it’s daily labour especially when you know the likelyconsequences of speaking openly and truthfully about how we exist. We still need to work 10x harder to be heard. ♥️
@ImmyKaur Would be great if the reporting feedback loop could be re-imagined. There are dynamic ways of communicating over time versus a standstill point of extracting data and information.

Yesterday I walked into a charity shop and came by a book ‘people need people’ by *Benjamin Zephaniah*. I purchased it for my son. So sad to hear that this incredible author & visionary passed on today. He leaves a legacy to all of us who strive for a just & equitable society.
When an elder dies, a library burns to the ground.
Benjamin Zephaniah freed many minds with his pen. He has now ascended to join our ancestors, leaving behind a legacy that will travel longer than each of us have on this earth.
Thank you for all that you gave, rest in power 🕊️
