Superb lecture before a packed audience given by @bellribeiroaddy.bsky.social re-stating & re-interpreting the case for reparations
I was honoured to deliver the 25th Bernie Grant Memorial Lecture earlier this week.
We paid tribute to a political visionary and renewed our commitment to continue his legacy, challenging colonial amnesia and demanding justice for the lasting damage of enslavement and colonisation.

CNN’s sanewashing of Trump is beyond ridiculous. In the latest example, they wrote today that Trump “teased US territorial expansion” when he repeated his insane ideas that Canada should become the 51st state and the US should purchase Greenland from Denmark. It truly is the banality of crazy.
