We have made a fundraiser managed by Gboyega's sister Rose to help with the next steps and to upheld this beautiful man's legacy.
It will go towards the Gboyega Odubanjo Foundation.
All our love to you all.

Too sad to write words about the news now filling my Twitter feed 😞 so sharing my favourite poem by Gboyega instead.
'and the sun all the way up there' 💔
Philip Langeskov retweeted
We know the wonderful Gboyega has lots of friends here in Norwich, so if you know where he is or even if you just think you’ve seen him, please call 101 to contact Northamptonshire Police quoting the reference number MPD1/2619/23.

Big day tomorrow at UEA.
We need as many of you to come out for our first local strike day as we fight to avoid compulsory redundancies.
If they come for one of us, they come for all of us.
Pickets from 8:00
Rally @ Eaton Park 11:30

The proposed cuts at UEA do not have to happen. The Arts and Humanities faculty does not have to be targeted in this way. UEA is still a very rich university ...for some. UEA writers: please sign & share our open letter to UEA's (mis)managers: forms.gle/9fFHXRNZKkQ223uy8 Thank you!
Philip Langeskov retweeted
We need your support!
SIGN AND SHARE THIS OPEN LETTER to oppose plans for massive redundancies at #UEA.
The letter has been drafted by UEA staff and organised jointly by all three campus trade unions.

Another week, another donation to the @ucu strike fund. I genuinely can't see the endgame for UK universities in persisting with current working conditions plus a devalued pension (based on pandemic deficit), and I'm glad my union is trying to stop them ucu.org.uk/fightingfund
Philip Langeskov retweeted
Same as yesterday: solidarity and, if you're not striking, please consider donating to the UCU Fighting Fund -- they're striking so you don't lose a lot more ucu.org.uk/fightingfund

When can we start talking about how refugees are created?
When do we get to discuss the West’s role in this?
And what name do we give to Europe’s decision to allow - no, actively create the conditions - where boat after boat-load of people are drowning at sea?

This is not a ‘migrant crisis’, but a crisis of conscience and solidarity. A crisis of our humanity.

Greatly enjoyed reading and writing about books from @partisanhotel, @NoAlibisPress, @bhousepress & @SaqiBooks for the Nov / Dec 2021 issue of @idler.
Two poetry collections, one novel and one short story collection, all brilliant.
