Most wonderful antidote to doom scrolling reading here about Back on the Map's community work in Sunderland 👏👏 What a model to follow

‘This country’s divided’: how a Sunderland charity is changing that – one house, park and shop at a time
Far-right rhetoric fuelled rioting here in 2024, but Back on the Map is helping to unite the community, through good accommodation, new shops, and an aim to genuinely uplift and improve people’s lives

Again, why critical thinking skills are crucial in education. If people are bombarded with a constant stream of algorithmically selected content that engages them emotionally and we aren't equipping them with critical thinking skills from an early age then things like this are the inevitable outcome
