Anyone else making the move from X to Bluesky?

Ive started the move over from the right winged cesspit to hopefully a platform which is less bonkers! - https://t.co/SNfex1CR7o

Lets see how this one goes.

TurnerPrize 2024 winner Jasleen Kaur used her acceptance speech to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, demand an end to institutional complicity in Israels genocide & call for an arms embargo

A special mention to the pathetic statement from the presenter at the end

Gone is a genocidal president too hypocritical to admit it. And in comes a genocidal president who wears it as a badge of honor.

Incredibly tough day for my friends at Asian Network News. The BBC are axing their entire team. A group of brilliant journalists who tell the stories of British Asians & give them a voice on matters that affect them. Nowhere in the BBC does that. Devastated doesn’t cover it.

The BBC sound effects library is now completely free to access.
This is news.

First Sikh sacred music exams launched in UK.
Kirtan has become part of the universal eight-grade music examination system.

Following the riots, the government should be standing up — unequivocally — to the far right.

Shamefully, they are taking lessons from them instead.

Our common humanity offers a different lesson: refugees who have fled violence should be treated with compassion & respect.

Ecstatic that Marieha was found not guilty but I left the court fuming 😡 To quote Malcolm the #coconuttrial was a 'circus, with clowns and all', Exhibit A for the #PsychosisOfWhiteness We have to keep the pressure up and resist the policing of our thought

[5Pillars @5Pillarsuk]

"I'm mad ... this (coconut placard) trial was a circus, clowns and all, it never should have happened!"

Leading black professor Kehinde Andrews slams the Marieha Hussain coconut trail as a waste of resources and explains how the "struggling" prosecution couldn't find experts to back their stance after Andrews and others rejected their approaches.
