I’ve complained for months in regards to the safety of homeless residents and kids living at this hostel in Lambeth.
The council will have you believe it is ‘safe’
Today I was sent this video recorded by a resident 🔪
If 3 Black people took a White man on a boat expedition and didn’t return with him the president would be making a speech right now.

The backlash is fascinating. People secure in the lives they’ve chosen don’t usually feel threatened by someone celebrating a different one.
If a stranger saying she’s happy, childfree, single & fulfilled feels like a personal attack, that says more about your insecurity with your own life choices.
Normalize being very direct, very straight to the point and very assertive. A surprising amount of tension in adult life exist because people avoid saying what they actually mean.
Y’all have become way too comfortable disrespecting and mistreating people, then expecting them to just “get over it” without any accountability. Too many genuine people end up hurt because someone’s pride is too big to offer a sincere apology, take responsibility for their actions, and make a real effort to change. Accountability isn’t just saying sorry, it’s showing through your actions that you’re willing to do better.
The best decision I ever made was to be quiet. I have nothing to prove. I'm done explaining myself, done convincing anyone of my worth, and done fixing what I didn't break. I refuse to fight for a spot in anyone's life. If you see my value, great. If you don't, that's on you. I'm not forcing anyone to appreciate me, respect me, or treat me right. That's a choice they have to make on their own. Just lessons and a future that no longer includes people who took me for granted
God is very intentional. Nothing about your life is random. Not the delays, not the detours, not even the waiting. He knows exactly what He's doing. Please learn to trust him more this year.
I’m a very chilled person but i’m strict when it comes to my principles. I can’t tell you what to do, but i can tell you what you are not going to do with me.
“Time will tell” is one of the realest quotes ever because time will eventually tell who put in the work, it will tell who was disciplined, it will tell who was playing the long game. Time will indeed tell.
