The Reality Of Being Black and British
Good Afternoon Sense-ibles,
This week, I had a really fascinating conversation about Black British Identity in 2020. The feedback from my previous conversation with Ikenna Nebo two weeks ago was that you wanted more UK centric conversations so this week with Lets Talk Common Sense podcast we gave you just that. If you have some time this week, do listen here. Also, I’m sure you’ve seen the good news?
The UK becomes the first country to approve Pfizer/BioNTech coronavirus jab, paving the way for mass-inoculation.
This comes as…
Britain is the first country in the world to approve a jab
Mass vaccination programme to start from next week
50 hospital set up and waiting to accept the jab
Pfizer vaccine offers 95 per cent protection
England comes out of lockdown and moves into the tier system again
We will be keeping a close eye on this so stay connected to us on social media as we facilitate conversations, and commission articles about the vaccine, it’s safety and how the rollout programme might work

Presenting Georgia a journalist in our Scribe team!
“I was born in Staffordshire but I moved to London in 2016 for university. I enjoy writing about a range of political and cultural topics. My passion for reading often robs me of my sleep, especially when I get into a good nineteenth century novel.
I love Renaissance and pre-Raphaelite art and I’m therefore very excited for galleries and museums to finally re-open. Watching clips of the iconic duo that is Martha Stewart and Joan Rivers on YouTube is my guilty pleasure, along with wasting time on twitter where you can follow me @llggeorgia”
