Teaching young people about young activists is a great way of empowering them to act on injustices in their lives By providing egs of how young people have stood up against injustice in the past we can demonstrate that they’ve the same power & potential to actually make changes

What do your students understand about the hijab? Do they have knowledge gaps that might allow for them to more easily believe disinformation or discriminatory opinions? What information could help them to challenge Islamophobia & be confident up-standers in their communities?

Great article by Simone Richards challenging the fact that “For centuries, the history of Africa has been told predominantly through the lens of outsiders, often diminishing the continent’s rich cultural heritage, achievements & contributions to world civilisation” #BlackHistory
Reclaiming the narrative of African history is not just an academic exercise;it's a crucial endeavour that challenges outdated stereotypes and celebrates the continent’s rich heritage. By presenting a fuller more accurate story we honour Africa’s past & inspire future generations
