Morning Twitter pals. I’m looking for interesting resources on #culturalappropriation - podcasts, articles etc. Preferably by people from cultures that have been/continue to be mined. Thank you!
“But the children are never the problem. It’s the parents. The kids are always fun, and they’re reading the same books as kids in Brooklyn and LA. It doesn’t matter if their daddy is a racist, because their babies are reading Ghost!” https://t.co/qbd2cWj90Q
@Cambrook_PJ The tyranny of digital! But we must keep pushing for and publishing these stories (enviro, social justice, human rights) and not have them just be a flash in the pan. Such important issues
The disgusting, disappointing racist remarks people take the time to write under stories on the tragedy that took place yesterday makes me heart sore but is, sadly, unsurprising. Only shows how much more work has to be done.
Best and worst of humanity on twitter today (as ever). Make your timeline better by following/donating to organisations which support asylum seekers and refugees @Refuweegee@scotrefcouncil@justrightscot @GlasgowShelter @PositiveActionH @UbuntuGlasgow
