“On Easter, the story of Jesus — born in Bethlehem, living under occupation, crucified by empire — echoes the Palestinian experience: a people who face oppression, loss, and injustice, yet refuse to be erased. Just as resurrection followed crucifixion, Palestinians hold onto hope, dignity, and resistance, believing that even from the darkest tombs, life and freedom will rise again.

@_MGosling If you model to young people the conception that education is the primary-secondary stream only then you risk failing to instil in them a love of lifelong education. People learn every day formally and informally and “education” can be found at all stages of a persons life.

Really disappointing to hear - a good resource that helps YP across the city develop aptitude and capability for study at the university level, many of whom would be the first in their family to attend.
