After inheriting the miner's safety lamp that belonged to his great-grandfather, writer @jakecampbell88 sets out on a pilgrimage across Northumbria. Travelling from the Holy Island of Lindisfarne to Durham Cathedral, he asks what new ways might be made through the old north.

This weekend marks the end of the @HRP_palaces #KensingtonPalace #UntoldLives exhibition. It has been an honour to present a #RediscoveringBlackPortraiture perspective on the story of John Grano, the 18th-century musician who performed in Handel’s orchestra at the Haymarket.

I have an article in the new issue of @slavicreview on military masculinities & sexuality in the late Russian Empire. It feels like the research (conducted pre-Covid and pre-full scale invasion) happened in a different life. Anyway, free to read here: tinyurl.com/nhe448sn

Grateful to Sandra Samuels OBE for the op to speak yesterday at the Heritage Centre in Wolverhampton about the Windrush Scandal project/research findings. Amazing that the building which was once Enoch Powell’s Conservative Club now has a plaque in memory of Paulette Wilson.

My keynote @UniNhantsNews on 5 July championing intersectional equity for Black and Muslim young women will signal a new era of hope day after election. I challenge @UKLabour @LabourBlackWom1 to come hear how to really tackle complex social issues from bottom up not top down

#ColonialCountryside Revisited...
*Coming soon* - conversations about country walks through colonial Britain with formerly primary pupils (now in their teens) on my @nationaltrust project, Colonial Countryside. Starting with XazQ, who went on an epic journey of discovery after seeing a miniature painting of Tipu Sultan @CharlecoteNT, read up about it, spoke to relatives in India & travelled across the world to discover more @ace_national @HeritageFundUK @ChildrensComm @children
