Inspiring. Intelligent. Strong minded. Three words to describe Bonnie Greer. I’ll miss listening to your voice 🕊️
Sad news just in. 🙏🏽
British-American Playwright and novelist #BonnieGreer has died aged 77. Her husband David Hutchins announced her death saying:
“It is with profound sadness that I announce that my beloved wife, Bonnie Greer, has died aged 77 after a brief illness.
“Bonnie was an acclaimed playwright, author, critic, cultural and political commentator whose intelligence, courage and distinctive voice made an enduring contribution to British cultural and public life."
Speaking in 2016 in the aftermath of the Black Lives Matter movement, Greer said: "When I wake up in the morning, I'm just myself. It's only when I leave the door that I become a black woman to the world."
She added: "I tell black women all the time, 'Don't apologise for yourself and keep your hair nappy. Make sure you are heard'."
Rest in Peace Bonnie Greer 💔

Today, we observe 26th of June UN observance Day in support of victims of torture, let us promote the absolute ban for all human being regardless of nationality and race. Nobody is safe when torture is allowed.

We are not a burden to this country as the narratives from politics claim. A country is great when the policies are humaine and do not target the most vulnerable ! facebook.com/share/r/1G6Rb4m…
