A truly inspirational and breathtaking evening of activism, history and art! 'Knock Out Blow' an event celebrating the life, achievements and legend of Manchester's very own Len Johnson.

Dalian was 5ft 7 and this police officer was 6ft 3. And the way he described Dalian in court as being ‘big and scary’ needs to be acknowledged. The characterisation of Black people as angry, scary and violent leads to us being killed

The girl behind the photo. A reminder that Palestinians killed by Israel are not just numbers or white shrouds. They were once smiling 5 year olds who once hoped for peace. ✌🏽 💔😞

Errol Graham, a disabled man, was found dead weighing 28.5kg by bailiffs sent to evict him after his benefits were stopped by the people the government authorise to decide whether people are fit for work

There's nothing more humiliating than sitting outside KFC on a Friday night and asking drunk people on their way home for leftovers. Imagine being 16, 17, 18 and this is your only chance of survival. Being homeless was the most frightening time on my life. At 43, I have a house in London, I have my family and I appreciate every second. And that's why I wake up everyday motivated to help others like me and I will never stop campaigning for children and young people in care. #changeiscoming. @SuellaBraverman It was not a lifestyle choice for me or every other young care leaver forced onto the streets. I'll accept an apology when you're ready.

Collective punishment is a war crime.
Starving children of food, hospitals of power & the innocent of water is inhumane.
Sir Keir Starmer must retract his comments & apologise, or we fear he does not see the humanity in Palestinian & Muslim life.

Today marks 37 years since his murder
“Ahmed Iqbal Ullah was killed at the hands of a fellow school pupil in the playground of Burnage High School, Manchester, on 17 September 1986.
An inquiry concluded race was a key factor in the Bangladeshi's murder.”
