This week I was the very first black woman to graduate from the Uni of Glasgow with a PhD in Physics. I'm a proud Black British woman from LDN. I made space for myself in a predominantly white, male field. It was hard, but with the support of my family & my community, I did it.

These Liverpool pupils are very well informed about their city's connection to the slave trade. Here they visit Speke Hall, which they have studied at school. This Tudor house was maintained with slave-produced sugar wealth from Jamaica #ColonialCountryside
