Meghan Markle files complaint directly to ITV against Piers Morgan on the impact of his words on mental health sufferers 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
There is no excuse for police brutality and the murder of innocent black people. If you do make excuses for this it says alot about you as a person. #BlackLivesMatter #black_lives_matter
I present a series about houses which tell stories of white poor people - like my ancestors. I've never had a black person complain that the series is not about black people. EVERY every program I've EVER made about black people someone complains it's not about poor white people.
Yes there is. Because black people are constantly told 'just ignore it'. No. I don't ignore it on the street and I won't ignore it on social media. I wrote an article, someone wants to criticise it - I'm fine with that, but don't tell me I shouldn't respond to that criticism.

Clara B. Williams college professors did not allow her inside the classroom because she was Black. But that didn’t stop her. She took notes from the hallway–standing up! She eventually graduated at the age of 51 and lived to 108 years old and saw her 3 sons become doctors.
More than two years later, 95% of Windrush victims who have submitted claims are still without a penny of compensation. @BorisJohnson if you believe #BlackLivesMatter I urge you not just to set up another working group but to Act. #WindrushDay
Here's an article, in which some people who came to the #UK on the #Windrush talk about their experience in #Britain. #WindrushDay #WindrushDay2020 #WindrushScandal #WindrushGeneration #BlackLivesMatter #WindrushLivesMatter 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 bbc.co.uk/history/britis…

Well I am happy for you. But don't understand why you feel the urge to let me know that? Shall I just take it as read that you're happy with the biology and geography as well. Thanks for letting me know but I'm kind of busy. Great to see you have so much free time.
Today is #WindrushDay. The #windrushgeneration refers to #Carribean people invited to live in the UK from 1948-197 to help rebuild the UK. #TheWindrushScandal is where those people were wrongly detained, denied legal rights, threatened with deportation & some deported from the UK

I so want to believe this is not true...
For those in denial about the mission of the dark past that has built the economic, cultural and political present. Take a look at this medal afforded to Ambassadors working abroad, today . Zoom in on the centre. It is institutional and global George Floyd!
#WindrushDay Photo taken on 22nd June 2018 with Mr Alford Gardner. He was born in Jamaica and is now aged 96. 70 years before, he had disembarked from the SS #EmpireWindrush, here at Tilbury Dock on the 22nd June 1948.

I'm half white working class - that's my heritage. The issues that affect you affect me and my family. Look at how many white people are part of BLM. This is about racists and anti-racists - not black and white.
@DavidOlusoga I feel like the enemy for being working class and white . Im sorry 😔
Sorry people keep saying that - I disagree. All my life people have said 'ignore abuse', 'ignore racism' 'don't rise to the bait' 'don't fight back'. If you're looking for a definition of what this moment is about its about black people saying 'no' - we will fight back.
On June 19, 1865,the Emancipation Proclamation which had been issued on January 1, 1863 was read to enslaved African in Texas by Gordon Granger. Texas was the last Confederate State to have the proclamation announced, after the end of the American Civil War in April of that year
