    When you actually hold a copy of your own book in your hand! Itโ€™s unreal! Grateful & excited to add to knowledge on race & racism, how it [re]produces inequality. This theoretical book on race has insight on implicit bias, managing difference & acceptance. manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526134394

    An 18 year old who is Irish, born in Ireland and has Black skin pigmentation is effectively not Irish?Does this not legalise whiteness as a req for Irish identity? Box 1 is Irish Box 5 is African Seems we canโ€™t afford a few more boxes to ensure all who belongs here belongs here?

    This!๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿพ Great to hear a presenter speak out for his guest! Usually, you give the interview & they thrive on the controversy & attention. Honestly, for the first time in Ireland, Iโ€™m actually seeing change. Many people have gone from just talking! Many are taking a stand! Tnk you!
    "If you ever wanted proof that Ireland is a racist country - I'd love to show you the texts we've gotten in ... It's bulls#it, not good enough anymore." @DermotTodayFM reacts to angry & unacceptable response to Ebun Oladeru's interview on her experience of racism in Ireland.

    His name is George Nkencho. A young man of 27, well known and loved by his community and family. Mental ill health is not a crime, it means one is unwell and needs to be cared for not killed. We grieve for #GeorgeNkencho #JusticeforGeorgeNkencho #BLM

    I will be on @morningireland discussing the racial profiling of money in Ireland Noel Grealish is encouraging. This is politics of hate. Thanks to all the good people of Ireland who have spoken out against this discriminatory call that targets a group bcos of where they are from!

    If @rte had more Black staff & diversity in the news room theyโ€™d know a Black man almost under a car, handcuffed & under the knee of 3 officers is not a picture of police custody but daylight murder! Make newsrooms reflective. 1.2% popln is African, 14% migrant #BLM #icantbreathe
    Just heard RTร‰ describe the murder of George Floyd as "the death of a black man in police custody".
