Yesterday I got to co-host the #YouthClimateTakeOver with the incredible Zoe. What an energising and important day. To have so many young people taking action for the global youth strikes! Big ups to amnesty for pulling this together w/ the help of so many orgs ❤️ Image
And as I was heading home, I saw some of the Young people that cam. Acting on the call to action by leaftleting in kings cross 👏🏾👏🏾 #legends #ClimateStrikes #YouthClimateTakeover Image
There are so many resources for the global action available on @nusuk Connect - nus.org.uk/en/take-action… . @UKSCN1 - ukscn.org
fridaysforfuture.org
Was also incredibly refreshing to see @IslamicReliefUK, which is probably one of the biggest Muslim charities recognise thier role in this climate Emergancy and to see they are mobilising for the strikes! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
And find your nearest strike at ukscn.org/r2/events/waca…. See you there!

Public service announcement:

Don’t let elected officials, big funding bodies or organisations you work with dim down your light, gaslight you into believing your ideas are ‘too radical’ or ‘unrealistic’!

Let me tell you this for free..
There is nothing at all radical about everyone having access fo a fully funded and just education system.
There is nothing radical about everyone having the right to shelter and food in every corner of this globe.

To all my non black friends,
I, like every black sibling, is hurting.
We feel a pain & suffering that runs centuries deep, that you will never understand!

I don’t need a ‘Are you okay text’ I need you to read & develop critical consciousness especially in state violence!

NUS COVID19 April Update 🧵:

Since our last communication regarding NUS' plan to support students during this crisis, we’ve heard of so many tragic stories from the frontline and within our communities.
With great sadness, I report that we have also lost a wonderful family member from our student movement. I want to firstly pay tribute to Ruth Southall, who has sadly passed away. Ruth was the Representation Development Manager at @UoNSU.
Ruth made a wonderful contribution to the student movement over many, many years. Her work will have touched the lives of countless students. My thoughts are with her family and friends.

NUS COVID19 Update🧵:

These past few weeks have been unprecedented in the history of the student movement. The Covid-19 pandemic shutting down our institutions & indeed our entire country has made more confusion, uncertainty and fear endemic to the lives of every student.
Tomorrow I will be presenting an emergency motion to #nusconference / #nusnc2020 that sets out @nusuk’s guiding principles as we respond to this crisis. So I felt I should update you on the number of actions we’ve taken since the start of this crisis.
On the 16th of March I wrote to the Chancellor of the Exchequer to request the lowering of the Statutory Sick Pay threshold and other support for student workers, as well as support for FE and HE providers who may encounter funding. Image

🧵#IWD: I spent international Womens day with the most incredible woman in my life, my mother!

The Zamzam you all know, was carefully crafted by my hooyo. She never let me give up, she never let me make up excuses and she always taught me to stand up for what I believe in. 1/6 Image
Even when she watched her daughter receive death threats, she told me to rise above it. When people told me I wasn’t good enough, she made me show them a million reasons why I was. #IWD 2/6
She challenged me when I thought I knew it all & reminded me constantly, fighting for justice is not easy nor comfortable! She taught me the importance of thinking beyond myself - of community, ummah and of international solidarity,&that the fight peace & justice is universal 3/6
