I produced some teaching resources for #BlackHistoryMonth

Providing diversity in context, taking a look at the significant contribution to the war effort made by the British Commonwealth of Nations during WWII.

We can teach BHM without CRT #DontDivideUs

Don't get me wrong, I don't think Black History Month should exist.

Black history is a part of British history. No need to segregate.

However, some schools feel obliged to address BHM, so I'd rather provide CRT-free resources so they can do so without compromising themselves.

In English schools, we teach about the history that shaped our nation; British history, European history, world history. We should not separate history based on skin colour.

My resources focus on the Commonwealth contribution to WWII. Sikhs, Burmese, Jamaicans, Australians. 🪖🌍

Just your run-of-the-mill thuggish behaviour, not racism.

This is the problem with seeing the world through a racial lens, you end up seeing racism everywhere, even where it doesn’t exist.

Let’s see if the MSM apologises for incorrectly reporting on this for the past few days.

@Quicktake

Social media, too. Care to retract, @Quicktake @Twitter?

@BBCNews

Anything to say, @BBCNews @BBCNWT?

Just because someone happens to be black, does not mean any criticism of that person is automatically racially motivated.

Being mean to a white person is just mean. Being mean to a black person is racism? How’s that assumption not racist?!

Kemi Badenoch condemned the use of dangerously irresponsibly racial slurs toward people who dare to think differently:

Racism-denier, race-traitor, uncle tom, coconut, house slave/negro.

A deplorable tactic designed to intimidate ethnic minority people from expressing views.

Dangerously irresponsible*.

@DawnButlerBrent

Labour MP @DawnButlerBrent clearly didn't get the memo:

"This is gaslightin' on a national scale", calling people "racial gatekeepers".

Ms Butler shows no nuance or responsibility, disgracefully continuing to stoke division.

This shows how far the Labour Party has fallen.
