Thanks Libby, means a lot.
As several people say in the issue, covers and statements are not enough. We want a properly open, wide-ranging, evidence-based conversation which draws in a range of voices and considers diversity/inclusion/institutional bias in the broadest sense...

...I'm left unsure where to turn in terms of engagement. But we'll never hide from it, and it only makes me more determined to do better in terms of the diversity of our coverage and the conversations we have around inclusion.

A few things to flag up…
1) there will be in the Sept edition
2) early on in lockdown we realised we had a real challenge with even 'business as usual', so… [thread]
…we decided to produce a special summer edition themed 100% around 'Towards a new normal, and beyond'.
3) As part of that (p.5) we did flag up this BPS statement bps.org.uk/news-and-polic…
4) We also gathered perspectives and links here thepsychologist.bps.org.uk/standing-again…
We did look for info on the pandemic and BAME groups, but have seen very little written from a specifically psychological perspective.
We have proactively sought out BAME voices and other perspectives on inclusion in recent years and will continue to do so…
