The Cat That Slept for a Thousand Years at Manchester Museum. Touched by all the messages I received in the last few weeks of good folk spotting my two purr-fect beauties on gallery wall! 😻😻

If you're feline in the mood, catch the cats before they fall back into a catnap for another millenium! 🐈🐈‍⬛

Absolute privilege to hear about the work done by @darrenchetty.bsky.social to promote anti-racist education in the area of Philosophy for Children. We loved hosting Darren at @official-uom.bsky.social and were pleased that as usual our seminar was attended by students, staff & activists!

My Museum colleagues boldly & beautifully curated an event honouring Palestinian stories & voices pointing to our responsibility as cultural workers, educators, human beings, custodians of artefacts & stories. Our values - care, imagination and inclusion mean we must keep talking of #Palestine 🇵🇸 💚

Big thanks to Remy Mohamed and the Greater London Authority (GLA) Muslim Staff Network for inviting me to present to over 100 of their colleagues today.
I spoke about why we set up The Riz Test to tackle negative representation in film and on TV.
