The thinning of real-world social infrastructure that once enabled teens to build identity, agency, & belonging is to blame, argue @annafreudcharity.bsky.social CEO Eamon McCrory & @ucl.ac.uk PhD student @ritikac.bsky.social. Digital platforms haven't caused this erosion, but have filled the gap.

This is extremely worrying. A public consultation on how police use facial recognition tech is coming imminently. Police forces must HALT this rapid rollout until laws and safeguards are in place to protect the rights of the British public.

Is anyone else confused by the UK Government's misaligned drive to 'Get Britain Working' whilst simultaneously cutting back on Disability and Welfare support systems? They want to 'tackle the rising tide of ill-health' without investment that tackles the root causes of said ill-health? 🙆‍♂️

Thanks for publishing this. A great piece + one that really chimes in with the sentiment so many Black professionals who come to us share. The sense of systems that have not seen, heard and held a huge portion of our community, and the accompanying fire "to rebuild [psychology] honestly". 👏

We will continue to offer solidarity, fight against injustice wherever it arises, and aspire towards peace and systemic liberation for all. #freedom #antioppression #anticolonialism #justice

The path to freedom is still being laid, and apartheid and state-violence are real threats to that vision. Palestinian people have the right to self-determination, and the right to decide what their realities, and their futures, look like. Conflict is never the solution.

Whilst the news of the ceasefire is welcome, we want to see the profound pain of the Palestinian people acknowledged, and calls for the social, political, cultural and legal liberation of Palestine recognised on an international scale.

4. Regeneration Our current systems take more than they give, sustaining white supremacy & other forces of oppression. We must return to what our bodies, cultures and communities once knew - small acts of resistance honouring what came before to create something different

3. Repair In our lives, rupture is inevitable. Repair is thus vital Many of us have been harmed by years of systemic violence (capitalism, racism, homophobia, misogyny, colonialism ) and subsequent injustice. Repair means tending to that inherited pain - not with quick fixes, but with steady care

2. Relationships Relationships are what make the world go round, and sites of radical transformation. What if our systems gave time and space for relationships to thrive, between others and to ourselves?

1. Redistribution Right now, power, knowledge and resources are held by too few. How can we be more active in featuring redistribution in our work/lives?
