Sir William’s legacy will live on...
I am saddened to learn of the passing of Sir William Macpherson. When the Inquiry into Stephen’s murder was announced with Sir William as its Chair, my family and I were extremely concerned at his appointment.

📖✨ Knowledge is power, and history is our foundation. We must never reduce or rewrite the past to fit a simpler narrative. Every lesson, every struggle, and every triumph shapes the world we live in today. 🌍
Education isn’t just about the future—it’s about understanding where we come from, honouring those who paved the way, and ensuring that truth is never erased. Let’s keep learning, questioning, and passing on the full story.

An important conversation we all need to have… Actor Sterling Brown @sterlingkbrown breaks down the stark differences in how ‘bad behaviour’ is perceived—and punished—based on race.
These conversations aren’t just necessary—they’re urgent. We need to address the systemic biases that shape outcomes from childhood to adulthood.
