51 migrants dead in San Antonio and 37 African migrants dead in Melilla. These are border killings, not passive deaths. Doctrine of deterrence *requires* mass death at borders. Borders - not symptom & easy scapegoat of "smuggling & trafficking networks" - needs to be abolished.

Police killed a Black man with mental illness by gassing him to death. Now Black activists and community members are demanding justice across several Brazilian cities.
Absolutely heartbreaking news. Veteran Al Jazeera correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh has passed away after being in shot in the head by Israeli forces while reporting on an Israeli army raid on a refugee camp in Jenin, occupied West Bank. She was wearing a press vest at the time.
Went deep this morning with Richard, co-founder of @BlesstCentre - as part of our Leadership Stories sessions with @CREMEatAston during #BHM2021. Soul nourishing to hear his journey, how it has impacted others & why there's a lot of work ahead. We're blessed to learn from him!

A stalwart @CitizensUKBham leader since 2013. I've learnt a lot about prioritising family, those often excluded & the development of young leaders from @Richard60827182. Excited about what he will share at this not-to-be-missed session.
