The city of Tulsa, home to one of the most horrifying racial-terror massacres in U.S. history and the people who tried to cover it up, has announced a $105 million reparations package.
Tulsa announces reparations for the 1921 ‘Black Wall Street’ massacre
It took decades of research by historians and journalists — and reports by state and federal commissions — to uncover the violence that claimed more than 300 Black lives.

When white women in leadership steal your idea and repackage it and give other white women to run with what you started! It’s ugly business and believe you me I’m not stepping back on this one

Apart from
#InternationalDayForTheEliminationOfDiscrimination today is also #SingleParentsDay!
Wishing all fellow single parents a happy day, and continued success.
It is the most challenging role I have had to date. Single parents often face discrimination too!
Thanks to everyone in my village!🙏🏽💜

This post reminded me about a day I spent in a bookshop in Oakland, during my #ChurchillFellowship to the USA.
It was February 2020, #BlackHistoryMonth in the States.
I spent several hours at Marcus Book store I didn't want to leave.
Happy #InternationalDayForTheEliminationOfDiscrimination!

It's great to be back on here.
Took an enforced break.
After returning from Australia, came down with the nasty virus that has been plaguing many.
Grateful to be vertical again.
It's been a busy week!
Today it was @nursingtimes.bsky.social
#SNTA 2025 judging with fabulous colleagues.

A super busy 3+ weeks in Australia undertaking the 2nd leg of my
@churchillfship.bsky.social #ChurchillFellowship in Trauma-informed Care.
Now I am aiming for #TraumaResponsive care. It's not enough to be informed! We as healthcare professionals must learn about how trauma shows up & respond to it!
