In 2017, I paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—stole my land and dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks https://t.co/jL45ojM91l
Once again, @CityofVancouver pretends that we #disabled peeps don’t exist. Apparently, denying us access to large sections of downtown + along Vancouver Hospital’s many streets wasn’t enough #discrimination (the cement #bikelane barriers) for them. https://t.co/vNCscnicHK
@MarshadeCordova@jonlis1 There is no institutional racism in the UK says racist denier committee head. The police acted proportionately at the Sarah Everard protest say The Police and Boris Johnson is a feminist says Boris Johnson. That’s the last two days covered. https://t.co/25LGbjIEON
This in one of the worst bits of the #SewellReport so far:
Putting a positive spin on slavery and empire. Published on a Government website in 2021.
Is this for real?
This Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History month is a time to celebrate and explore the history and culture of our travelling communities.
I reaffirm my commitment to stand with these communities, to take a stand against prejudice and lift up their voices and achievements.
My niece came home from nursery once in tears, asking ‘why is Black bad?’
Damaging patterns of institutional racism repeat themselves in the lives of many children, taking hold in school, and recurring in later education and the world of work

Today we mark #40yearsofHIV
5 men in Los Angeles were the 1st reported cases of a new mystery illness that we now call HIV.
Living with HIV has changed over the last 40 years. We have #PrEP & Undetectable = Untransmittable.
Ending new transmissions of HIV is within our reach.

Given that @Israel has been proudly flouting international law, United Nations condemnation, and the denunciation by its own #veterans (@BtSIsrael ) in continuing its #illegal occupation, this #HumanRights violation is, sadly, no surprise 😞
Ahead of today's game, our players will once again take the knee as a show of solidarity with the Black community, including members of our squad who themselves continue to suffer abuse on a regular basis.
Please support them, just as we know you will once the game begins.
📣H.O.P.E digital Art Project launches #75women#blackinDA
❓Would you like to meet the next round of #black & #brown women from #VAWG sector 🌟✊🏽
Meet Sabreena Grant a court based Independent Domestic Violence Advisor (IDVA) they literally are life savers 😇 👇🏾

A year ago today, two sisters were taken away from their loved ones. Today the trial for their murders begins. Join us in keeping Bibaa and Nicole in your thoughts and prayers. While nothing will ever bring them back, we hope their family will receive the justice they deserve 1/5
The govt’s plans for #VoterID will lock millions of people out of democracy. Disabled people are at huge risk of disenfranchisement.
Good to meet with orgs to discuss this issue today with @CatSmithMP@vickyfoxcroft.
@UKLabour will oppose #VoterSuppression.
In a media interview today I got asked if I agree that @MattHancock is f***ing hopeless.
That isn’t even up for debate. 127,000 deaths is evidence that he is and last year I told him to resign.
The question is how many tens of thousands of people should still be alive today.
I am a refugee. When I was six, the UK saved my life and gave me a home and hope.
This #RefugeeWeek my plea is for the UK to live up to its proud humanitarian tradition by giving hope to the refugee children of today. Children like me. Just our fair share, no more than that.
Utter nonsense from Education Committee, reporting that use of terms like “white privilege” helped cause “neglect” of white working class pupils.
Trying to inflame Tory culture wars and divisions, while crux of issue is continual Govt cuts that leave ALL poorer kids suppressed.
Total hypocrisy from Ministers who just weeks ago were condemning players taking the knee.
Racism against our players is disgusting and will not be tolerated.
What is the government doing to ensure social media companies end this racist abuse online?
