Lord Mayor of Southampton @TheSotonMayor

2 years ago

Great afternoon spent in Beechwood School helping them celebrate 70 years. The school was opened by the then Mayor Victoria Florence King. Great to be the 1st Lord Mayor to talk to the children today. Great to hear about Harlee’s Angels Charity.#LordMayor #Civicduties

@BenBeckerANjax I tried to tell Republicans not to vote for Davis for mayor, Dude is like his buddy Lenny Curry. They don’t deliver either. But Deegan is also the mayor and she’s not delivering and doing so much wasteful spending. This city is screwed until a new mayor is in charge.

@GoldsmithsUoL loves to roll out its ‘flagship’ course–the Black British History MA @BlackBritHistMA –yet the reality on the ground is this course has been relentlessly squeezed over years and now faces its final blow, management are proposing axing the convenor @AbenaKJohn.

Abominable epistemic violence happening at @chiuni, as they try to get rid of @hakimadi1, the UK's first Black professor of history who runs the country's only MRes in African & African Diaspora history, which has been cancelled overnight. #BlackHistoryMatters Please sign & share

Thus those enslaved in the British West Indies paid more “compensation” for their freedom through their own labour than the British government did in exchequer payments.

Arresting @DonCorleANN and her colleagues only proves one thing to me. That women should stay silent and if they don't, they will be intimidated into silence. How was that an unlawful assembly? How has a women's march turned into this? Why was Luse arrested?

Arresting organizers of a Women’s March against Sexual Gender Based Violence in a country that has over 20,000 annual reported SGBV cases minus majority unreported cases just shows how much women are hated in this country #JusticeForSistahSistah Release @DonCorleANN

So very sorry to learn of the death of former @Royal_Greenwich Councillor, Mavis Best. I first met her in the 70s when she led the campaign against the discriminatory “Sus” laws, and later worked with her in tackling racism in the NHS and on mental health campaigns in Greenwich.

This was an extraordinary conversation of digitisation as community skills, expertise, emotion, and the politics + power of whose stories and histories we share, and how. 🙏🏾✊🏾👇🏾 to the incredible @BlackSWNet @AndeeWallace @LondonLabrish @AfricaDHeritage @DrewEllery @UkNatArchives
