So sorry to read about the passing of @brixtonbard The Guardian doesn't mention it, but Alex did amazing gigs in prisons too (thanks to @manwithbooks) reaching out and speaking directly to the hearts and minds of people caught in the (in)justice system www.theguardian.com/books/2025/a...

So good to listen to @brixtonbard talking about that moment that someone said to him "what happened to you does not have to define you."

How is it ensured that this is weaved into interactions that offer those pivotal moments that move...
