@mscaitlinmoran.bsky.social Listened to your chat with Davina on my way to work as a secondary school journalism teacher. You inspired me in so many ways, including getting my newbies to write a piece entitled “Who they told me I am vs. who I know I am.” …

MUST WATCH: They didn’t just burn Tulsa — they burned proof. Black wealth. Black futures. Gone. And now they’re banning books so you never learn it happened. 📚 ERASED tells the truth they’re scared of. Read it before they erase that too: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

As a result of there being fewer cars on the M1 on a Friday. I don’t have to set off for work as early today. So *of course* I’m wide awake at 04:30. Of…bloody…course.
