“It is possible to have multiple callings in life. I used to struggle with the feeling of being spread too thin and not giving either of my callings my full attention, but I’ve come to accept that sometimes “better done than perfect” is ENOUGH!”

@WomenInSTEM19 - Yinka Bankole talking about the importance of mentoring, @AFBE_UK
BME students also do well in STEM at School but that doesn't translate to further education.

Love this quote...but atoms have been cracked just need to find the weak point!

[Anisha Patel @AnishaNPatel]

As an ethnic minority in STEM, very glad to hear there’s a society trying to support racial diversity. Sad there isn’t any research on ethnic females (or males) in engineering! #WomenInSTEM19 @AFBE_UK

Great panel discussion & questions
"classic social science response: its all very complicated"
"Human brain is hard wired with over 130 unconscious biases"
"It's not just 'us vs them' , 'them vs us' , can also be 'us vs us'

Success indeed #RaiseAndBeRaised. Many more achieved and many more to come. Please reach out. All are invited from all ethnic groups including the majority. Everyone has a roll to play in this.

Thank you to Dr Nike Folayan and Yinka Bankole from @AFBE_UK for delivering a truly inspiring session at our conference today! #WomenInSTEM19 #WomeninStem

Why does it need for your son to be under threat for you to realise? I wish people could develop more empathy!

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

While we're talking about preexisting conditions, the ACA is the law that finally protected your coverage for preexisting conditions.

Those protections and your health care are absolutely at stake on Tuesday. Vote for Democrats who’ll protect them. https://t.co/BDDmY60u8k

On the topic of the immense contribution of black British citizens:
- how many Windrush citizens did you deport in total?
- how many have you brought home?
- how many did you imprison?
- where is their compensation?
- where is their hardship fund?

[Yinka Bankole @yinkab]

@SafiaBarikzai @AFBE_UK @InventEUrs_ So well deserved

[Jo Foster FRSA @JCRFoster]

@AFBE_UK some great insights coming from Dr Nike Folayan on the importance of inclusivity in engineering. The IET is proud to support such an important organisation who is helping to make engineering accessible to a wider and more inclusive audience.
