Shell’s Jackdaw gas project won’t:

🙅 Lower energy bills
🙅 Make us energy secure

But it will make the climate crisis worse.

It’s time to #StopJackdaw @KwasiKwarteng & focus on renewables & energy efficiency.

Fantastic to see the lovely turnout for our July Ally Movie Night yesterday! Due to technical difficulties, instead of advertised title ' I am Not He...She (2015)' we ended up watching Moonlight (2016) which is of course hugely entertaining 🍿🍾@StGeorgesTrust @GivingtoGeorges

3/3 Dig Deeper:
In the Huffington Post article: 'When You're White-Passing, White People Treat You Like The ‘Acceptable Ethnic'; explore the topic of ‘White-Passing’ with the view of an Arab North African who talks about being ‘an acceptable form of Muslim’ 3-minute read

2/3 'Passing' refers to the prevalent practice of members of minority or oppressed races, religions, ethnic groups, etc. pretending to be white (or otherwise members of the majority culture) to escape prejudice.
