Powerful piece from @zoesqwilliams on how we've come to deny that men can be victims too. ⬇️😥 One way that we men can help is to stop pretending to be tough all the time... #MentalHealth #RefugeesWelcome

theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
My immediate (inexpert) thought is that if we work to normalise male vulnerability and discussion of mental health issues, that would help counter the prevailing toxic masculinity that dehumanises others and supplies the far right with recruits. #Southport
I'll go first: I've just started therapy to tackle c-ptsd. I'm not ashamed of it, and I don't think it makes me any less masculine. #MentalHealth #MentalHealthMatters #ptsd #trauma

A short thread about imperial attitudes and how Africa was carved up by European occupiers… 🧐🧵 #BritishEmpire #history #Africa
I’ve tweeted before about Major Sir Claude MacDonald (pic above)… He’s one of the main figures in my new book BLOOD AND BRONZE because he led the initial formal British occupation of what is now southern Nigeria. #BeninBronzes #history @HurstPublishers

I regard MacDonald as a cut above the average imperial official, but nonetheless he was guilty of some horrendous acts, which have been largely obscured or forgotten in the archives. ⬇️😖 #Nigeria #BritishEmpire #history #ColonialViolence

Complete change of pace… I just made an edible sculpture in my garden… I’m calling this

In the end you will all be destroyed, pt I

Side note: stacking eggs is harder than you might think.

A thread about drug smuggling, the British Empire, and the ways in which historical wrongdoing by the Establishment persists into the present day. 🧐🧵🌳🍃🍂⛓ #EstablishmentPsychopathy #history #ToriesOut #OpiumWar #ColonialViolence
It’s generally well known that the Opium Wars of the mid nineteenth century were launched by Britain against China in order to benefit British drug smugglers… 🤨🇬🇧🇨🇳 #OpiumWars #BritishEmpire #ColonialViolence #China
After all, even the National Army Museum – not typically regarded as a bastion of anti-Establishment lefties – states this frankly in its displays on the Opium Wars. #BritishEmpire #ColonialViolence #China

Today marked a significant milestone: @JesusCollegeCam handed over the Benin Bronze in its possession to representatives from #Nigeria. Well done to Jesus College. There is simply no excuse for anyone else keeping stolen property. 🙏🇳🇬 #BeninBronzes

I’ve just written an account of the brutal 1897 British Invasion of the Kingdom of Benin, based largely on new archive research:

Twitter pronouncements by @JimMFelton are incorporated directly into English common law, right? ⬇️😋 In that case, I’m legally obliged to plug the bejeesus out of my forthcoming book… 🤪👩🏼‍⚖️📔 #history #books @HurstPublishers #BeninBronzes
It’s called “Blood and Bronze” and tells the true story of the 1897 British invasion and destruction of the Kingdom of Benin, when the famous Bronzes were plundered… Empire loons like @NigelBiggar will absolutely *hate* it… 😃 #history #BritishEmpire

hurstpublishers.com/book/blood-and…
Blood and Bronze will be out on December 9th, and please sign up with my publisher @HurstPublishers for their New Book Alerts… 🤓👍📚 #books #history #BlackHistoryMonth
