Also, the cultural institution that is the Bullring Market is being demolished v soon by the ‘city officials’ for a range of reasons there is not a thread long enough to capture) and many brummies are SAD. I beg, let this not be the eulogy for our aunties’ fave market!

Vexed to know that there’s a whole demographic of US folx whose first intro to brum will be a putrid fish market (if not Peaky Blinders)😩 fwiw every Caribbean I know has bought fish from there at some over the decades and we are alive and well!!!
Sidebar. The city officials in birmingham, UK, need to do something about the fish market at the bullring market. Its giving putrid pathogen Wuhan wet market tease and just being in there I caught some shit. Just spent the last two days bathing , massaging, drinking tea sweating

And yes, that is an Average Joe’s T-shirt from Dodgeball I’m wearing. Fear this film may have aged like milk, but a pop of yellow in an outfit never will!

Grateful to @natcphd, their meticulous work with archives and their loving work with interviews in schooling me in a black queer herstory of Section 28. Cannot WAIT for the rest of the ‘Gay Lessons’! 🙌🏾

I have been lovingly reminded of why I have spent/ plan to spend so much energy working with educators on why we read, what we read, and *how* we read.

This is what the act of reading can do: pick up fragments and nuggets of experience and reconnect them in ways that you can’t consciously do by thinking and analysing your way into oblivion. It’s healing and it’s transformative.

I read Glissant’s ‘Caribbean Discourse’ cover to cover at uni and never too really understood what he was saying. It took leisurely readings of TOSD nearly 10 years after graduating for me to deep and live his theory.

I read a lot of Caribbean literature/literature about the Caribbean for my degrees but these teachings never really hit because I was squeezing out close readings to close deadlines like my life depended on it. The pressure!!

This One Sky Day has taught me that so much of the work of cultural connection is work of the heart, of language and of imagination. That it’s work that requires cultivating without being *forced*.

I'm so proud to have co-authored the #LitInColour research report for @PenguinUKBooks and @RunnymedeTrust with @veldaelliott, @lspeaks2020 and @mattheweduk, looking at why we are where we are and what change could look like. Findings here:

English lit classes are lessons in empathy, imagination and emotion. These lessons are limited when the perspectives taught are limited. Proud to be investigating routes for change with #LitInColour!
In collaboration with @RunnymedeTrust, #LitInColour supports primary and secondary schools to make the teaching of English literature more inclusive. Our new research examines the problem and makes practical recommendations for change. (2/3)

Critical race theory has a concept called interest divergence. It’s when working class white people politically align with the white power structure instead of class solidarity with POCs.
