Avoiding tough diversity conversations? Don't.
👉 Avoiding these conversations doesn’t make them go away.
👉 Fear of saying the wrong thing can paralyse progress.
👉 Employees may feel disconnected or unheard.
🌟 Organisations that embrace courageous conversations grow stronger.

What does it mean to be a good ally? - Léa Guzzo
Recently I have been reflecting about what it means to be good ally. How can I be the best ally possible to other marginalised groups?

Women face pressure about appearance in the workplace, especially in fields where looks are valued. This article highlights the underrepresentation of plus-size female instrumentalists in classical music.
What’s your take on this?

Classical music has a problem with fat women
In all the concerts I've attended this year, I haven't seen a single woman with an extra millimetre on the waistline. The pressure to be thin and beautiful is wasting time and talent

Imagine running a business with the same false promises politicians make:
👉🏽 Our businesses would go bust.
👉🏽 We’d be fined or jailed.
👉🏽 We’d be seen as scammers.
#Accountability should apply to politicians too. #Brexit didn’t deliver for fishermen/women.

Fishermen left feeling 'betrayed' by Brexit
'Brexit was sold to our fishermen as a golden opportunity, yet the truth is that many fishermen have experienced the complete opposite'

Really enjoyed the visuals created by @milanicreative.bsky.social! This one resonated with me today...
A mistake a lot of folks make:
Falling into "the collector's fallacy" trap--
Believing by collecting information, we somehow absorb it.
It feels productive to:
• highlight more books
• bookmark more articles
• listen to more podcasts
Real progress happens through behavior change and action.

Very honoured to have met The Late Start collective members who interviewed #AudreLorde in 1985, as they were excluded from a #feminist event for being #Black. A key moment for black feminism in the UK in the 80s. Here is Jacky explaining how Audre helped her define her identity. #intersectionality

Malik is right to assert that our focus should shift from blaming "wokeness" to addressing the deeper issue of how identity politics are manipulated by those in power, which ultimately undermines genuine social progress.

Why is this simple explanation being so widely embraced? Because it does not require a commitment to real, structural change, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik
