As this next period of aggressive, unkind politics is unleashed in the USA, let’s please be extra mindful not to catch it everywhere. Immigrants and women are people too, and freedom of speech doesn’t work equally for all. We will keep fighting against hate.

Throwback to when I had only two children. I turned my back and Isata had climbed onto the bed for a good cuddle with her little brother, Braimah. Who, remarkably, survived 😂❤️ All will be well if we stay connected 💐

I now have to miss the majority of my children’s concerts- too many and numerous clashes! Thank you to everyone who got to the many concerts played by Isata, Braimah, Sheku, Konya and Jeneba this Autumn that I couldn’t get to 🙏🏾
