  1. Let?s start making changes by teaching our kids, they will be the generation that can make the important changes that we need, if they are taught from young the truth about our history. https://www.instagram.com/theblackcurriculum/
  2. Interesting the lack of comments, black squares are ok but no comments towards making a real change via education?
  3. And another petition if you please. Good way to get the kids in school to discuss, they would all be able to contribute to the discussion as part of their ongoing education. https://www.change.org/p/department-of-education-battle-racism-by-updating-reading-lists-at-gcse?recruiter=false&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=psf_combo_share_initial&utm_term=psf_combo_share_initial&recruited_by_id=5fb981b0-a460-11ea-bf6f-b53bdaea1b41 TheCat Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Blah Blah Wrote: > -------------------------------------------------- > ----- > > The problem is Cat, that you have alluded to > open > > discussion being suppressed from white people, > but > > haven't given a single example and I would > still > > like you to list just who has been stopped from > > airing views on social media.

  5. Sharing this incredible organisation, The Black Curriculum. A section of their website is below: "Currently, the national curriculum and exam board specifications are limited in providing Black British history. Furthermore, Black history is not mandatory in schools which follow their own curriculum. Without the resources, time and understanding, we are still going to face the same problems of historical inaccuracies, bias and a lack of enthusiasm in teaching and delivery. In the same manner, we can not simply rely on parents and carers to provide this material to young people. Black British history is not merely a theme for October, but started hundreds of years before Windrush and pre-dates European colonial enslavement. Our work aims to address and overcome these limitations by seeking to provide a contextual, globalised history that roots the Black British experience in histories of movement and migration - 365 days a year. We want to help prepare students to become fully rounded citizens and ready for an increasingly globalised world. Our curriculum is grounded in the arts for young people to engage with history imaginatively, encouraging student satisfaction and critical thinking skills. Through our holistic approach we aim to remedy a wider systemic issue." Changing the school curriculum would make a difference in the fight against systemic racism. All children need to learn about a diverse range of voices, histories and perspectives in school. If you could spare 2 minutes, please send an e-mail to Gavin Williamson - The Black Curriculum have written a fantastic template. Thank you! www.theblackcurriculum.com

  8. They are allowed to comment The Cat but you do come across quite offensive and that is the issue. I find you offensive.

  11. They will come out to you https://www.facebook.com/WeFixPhones1/ Otherwise Melbourne Grove opposite the Tyres shop, assuming they are open.

  13. The box isn?t organic and therefore isn?t worth the premium price at all. Here is an alternative: https://www.food-republic.com/collections/all-products

  17. I find ANI expensive as I get most of the things that they sell from Ocado or HealthMatters and I do find ANI is more money.
