Did you know the discrimination Black nurses face? And how it changes little -in spite of all platitudes? Well, of course you do. Because I can confirm that Anti-Blackness is a thing ingrained in many national leadership circles. Ask around There's also data NHS England Workforce, Training and Education

In 1916, Ota Benga, an African native who suffered inhumane treatment by being kept in a zoo, committed suicide. He had been kidnapped in 1904 from Congo, and taken to America and exhibited at the Bronx Zoo with monkeys. A THREAD!

6 months till I die of brain cancer. As I move into the undignified phase of falling over and spilling food on myself I wish that we could be more supportive of each other instead of hurling abuse which passes as debate. Then the world I am leaving would be a better place.
