Editors letter
As we celebrate Black History Month, we look
at the ways in which we can make a difference by
working together, especially through volunteering
and community participation as discussed by
Nottingham Community and Voluntary Service. The
Sheriff of Nottingham shares the needs for community
engagement and the secrets of funds available
for community those willing to take more time in
community work and development.
The success of Mau Mau veterans in London also
triggered the need to investigate further the horrible
history of British colonial rule. Winston Churchill led
Britain through her finest hour, against the Nazis, but
also so through her most shameful one, at the height of
Britain’s colonial rule. He advocated and fought for white
supremacy and created concentration camp networks
of his own. The ruling in favour or those tortured by UK
government in Kenya is a resounding victory to British

justice system.

Ur brain is special. It has 2 parts LEFT and RIGHT. In right,
nothing LEFT. In left, nothing RIGHT.
When you’re stressed, you eat cake, ice cream, chocolate
& sweets. Why? Because stressed spelt backwards is
desserts.
