[Cllr Audra Wynter @AudraWynter]

Amidst the cold and unwelcoming climate of the UK, the Windrush Generation found solace in blues and shubeens, vibrant house parties fostering comfort, connection, music, dance, cultural expression, and unity. They shaped the UK's multicultural landscape. Happy Windrush Day!

We explored the maths behind #Windrush75 this week. Students looked at the jobs that people had before they boarded HMT Windrush. Did you know 0.2% of passengers were judges? We also analysed the shocking reality of the ethnicity pay gap that still exists in the UK. #ThisIsAP 🧮

Today, we offer reflections on those people of the Windrush generation who nurtured and sustained us to achieve when they were constantly and unjustly denied. We honour you.

Windrush75 and NHS75 - People from the Caribbean gave so much. Let's make sure the stories are inclusive of diverse dialogues about this important time in history.

Reflecting on the many times I have doubted my place in SLT, when doing a PhD, when moving into academia, when writing this book..because I never saw someone that looked like me doing those things. So, this photo is for any minoritised SLTs and students in that place of doubt.

Windrush 75: Project underway to record the contributions of surviving members | ITV News Meridian https://t.co/0FKJfM8fzZ

[Ruth Sinhal @ruthsinhal]

I ran a poll to ascertain if schools & workplaces plan to commemorate #Windrush75
Sadly, some ppl clearly found recognising contributions of Black Britons impossible & resorted to denying history, racism & personal insults
This is exactly why we MUST teach #Windrush & #TBH365
