Black people are overpoliced as citizens and underpoliced as victims.
Another story that highlights the urgent need for reforms.

It has been clear to anyone paying attention since the beginning of the talk of local lockdowns weeks ago, that inner city areas made up of poorer people, people of colour and workers in cramped industry were going to be hit hardest, so what has government done to plan for this?
#BlackLivesMatter isn’t just a moment, it’s a movement.
It was a pleasure to speak at @BLMWandsworth recently.
It's clear that if we want to see real change, it's going to take sustained pressure from below.
Skills I learned during lockdown:
Mix a Margarita
Make Carbonara
Tighten a Slow-Close toilet seat
Repair a Nintendo Joy-Con (right-hand side)
Take a fuzzy photograph of Jupiter
I would have done more but I had to empty and fill the dishwasher 7 billion times.
Today on The Happiness Lab, I explore the science of being a better ally. @DollyChugh explains the biases that make good people do too little + @RichardLapchick & @gaynongay show that embracing discomfort is the key to being better allies & happier people https://t.co/vi36jVhbPE

Ahead of the PM’s announcement on infrastructure tomorrow @RCPsych is calling for a fair share for mental health, so that patients can be treated safely and with dignity in world leading modern facilities https://t.co/Gu9DrZ9ZEd
Dear @timesradio , did you give any black people a show? Or appoint black senior producers? Because when new opportunities are created in broadcasting, black talent is excluded. When a new platform for the national conversation is launched, we are not in it. Awaiting info, thanks
The #ImmigrationBill returns to Parliament today.
We need a fair immigration policy that doesn't remove migrants' rights, benefits our economy, upholds human rights and spells an end to the #HostileEnvironment
This Bill does none of those things 👇🏾
I'm going to bed, but I predict as I go to sleep that less than 5% of any jobs created by announcements tomorrow will be for women. For some it's the same Old Deal.
Recovery from an eating disorder may feel so hard for you right now. You may be feeling emotionally and physically exhausted by it, but I promise things get easier. Keep going fighting for recovery is so so worth it!
