@SMQPsych @medpsyed @MWigelsworth @neilhumphreyUoM @ola_demk @axilcat Only just seen this! Thanks Sarah. And thanks so much for all of your help and support throughout :)

[Kids Of Colour @KidsOfColourHQ]

We ask you to share this again this morning. How this young man now feels about life is harrowing. His mum has said he feels so targeted by the police (including @gmpolice) that he feels nothing will change, and ‘if they want to kill him, they should just get on with it’ 😔

[Kids Of Colour @KidsOfColourHQ]

Morning! Today we're up to an incredible 372 signatures on the below open letter about two young boys held in police cells for 10 hours. We'll be off twitter for most of the day, and would love to come back to over 400 signatures! If you haven't already, please sign and share ⬇️

[Kiv Legate @KivLegate]

Please sign and share. We must speak up about instances of institutionalised racism such as these. Failure to do so makes us complicit in allowing these practices to continue. #racism #SocialJustice #HumanRights

[Kids Of Colour @KidsOfColourHQ]

TWITTER: We recently shared the case of two Black boys who were held in custody for 10 hours. It reached the Guardian, we had a community meeting, the family has legal support and now we ask you to SIGN & SHARE this open letter to @ArmyCadetsUK @DefenceHQ https://t.co/dHzujEWecH

[Kids Of Colour @KidsOfColourHQ]

Please sign this petition for an independent inquiry into exclusions of Black children from school. Different treatment for the same behaviour based on race must stop! #racism #racismineducation https://t.co/WGP6qVjDjo

[These Walls Must Fall @wallsmustfall]

Now, @AyoCaesar explaining the roots of anti migrant racism in the UK and how successive governments have used migrants as a scapegoat for their own behaviour. Really useful background to understand how we came to the 'hostile environment'. @McrMomentum

“I have had my own struggles with social media, where I have felt inadequate & have compared different aspects of my life to strangers.”
One of our Young Champions talks about social media & how to practice self-care if negative feelings arise: https://t.co/oTD8IfX40d

[Kiv Legate @KivLegate]

So important to consider how people wish to be described. In the limited research that I've seen, there seems to be a disparity between the preference of autistic individuals and the way autism is described in much of academia. More research needed on this topic! 🔎

[Kiv Legate @KivLegate]

Yes! These kinds of schemes need to be rolled out across all supermarkets. More needs to be done to reduce #plastic waste @sainsburys @Tesco @AldiUK @LidlGB @coopuk @marksandspencer #plasticpollution #plasticfree #greenliving https://t.co/wv0pJNlJgs
