Can we not just keep it going forever? A permanent art instalation.

So a few days ago, I asked a question about burnout and the replies were pretty revealing - thanks to everyone who replied for their honesty in talking about this stuff.

#Burnout is much more than just feeling a bit worn out.
Settle in... 🧵

@coachblueprint1
Burnout is far more than just feeling worn out, or a bit over-stressed.

It is a complex and ongoing syndrome with three major characteristics...
1. Feelings of emotional and physical exhaustion.

Often this is described as being overwhelmed by everything, not having the energy to make even the simplest of decisions.

When you say we shouldn't teach kids about racsim, you forget that young Black kids and kids of colour HAVE TO learn about racism. They have no choice in the matter.

This breaks my heart. He's just a baby. 11 years old. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
Think about the things that stick with you from being a kid. The time you called you teacher 'mum', the time you read 'orgasm' instead of 'organism' in a biology textbook.

I doubt 'having your finger ripped off while trying to get away from racist bullies' is on your list.
Well it's on this kids list.

But it's okay, he'll be fine...

...cos we'll reassure him that the UK isn't racist, that #BlackLivesMatter, that actually it's our fault anyway for making it all about race, that he's just playing the race card, that he has a chip on his shoulder.

As usual, the replies to those pointing out the racism involved in the Child Q case are full of people shouting "Bollocks!" or "what about Muslim rape gangs?"

Well please allow me to retort.

Settle in... 🧵
It's all very well and good to say "this wouldn't have happened if the girl was white," or "this is a clear example of yet more racism," but I think it might be important to explain how and why we *know* that to be true, rather than just repeating it over and over again.
We know that Black children are more likely to be perceived as older than they actually are. I know this from personal experience, but no one cares about my experience. We want facts and evidence, remember?

Yet again, "woke" is trending on Twitter as it continues to be used (deliberately) as a pejorative.

But why is being aware of very real issues of inequality and injustice something to be derided?

I'll tell you why... myblackface.wordpress.com/2020/09/01/the…
One of the stats I cite in the above is that Black women are 5x more likely to die in childbirth than white. It's one that people seem to have real difficulty with.

"Are you saying that midwives are all racists?"

No, obviously bloody not...
There's inequality that drives the inequality that drives the inequality. And inequality behind that too. You just have to dig deep enough.

Would you like to hear about an all-Black Ice Hockey League? An often forgotten, yet crucial piece of history that actually shaped the way the game is played today?

Oh you would? Wonderful.

Let's begin.
#BlackHistoryMonth
So I think we can all agree that Ice Hockey is pretty white, and I’m not talking about the ice. In today’s NHL, about 5% of the players are players of colour. As of last year, it was just 43 players out of over 700.
But it wasn’t always that way. Way back in 1793, not too long after the American colonies drop-kicked the British out of a country that didn’t belong to either of them, Canada passed an act to end slavery and grant any slave arriving there automatic freedom. Yay Canada!
