Celebrating Black NHS nurses through the decades – in pictures
The NHS is one of only two things that hold Britain together as a community. The second being the BBC.
During Covid-19 these two national treasures have become our guiding strength. Black people have been an integral part of the NHS since the 40s.
I am very proud to say my mother worked for the NHS for more than 35 years before she retired. These institutions are worth fighting for.

Racism Charges Put a Sport on Edge
December 21, 2011 The New York Times By JERÉ LONGMAN
John Terry, captain of
England’s national soccer team and the powerful club Chelsea, faces a criminal
charge over accusations that he made a racial slur during an October match,
apparently becoming the first player to be prosecuted for remarks said on the
field. Rob Hughes contributed reporting from London. Racism Charges Put a Sport on Edge, NYT, 21.12.2011, https://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/22/ sports/soccer/in-england-star-players-accused-of-racist-comments.html

Enoch Powell dismissed for 'racialist' speech
From the Guardian archive
Monday April 22, 1968 Guardian Ian Aitken
Mr Heath last night dismissed Mr Enoch Powell from the Shadow Cabinet. It became clear that the members of Mr Heath's Shadow Cabinet were unanimous that Mr Powell would have to go. Several Front Bench members let it be known that they would resign if Mr Powell remained. Two of the leading figures in the drama appear to have been Mr Maudling, deputy leader of the party, and Mr Hogg, chief home affairs spokesman. Both are understood to have been appalled by Mr Powell's inflammatory speech.
Certainly there were intensive consultations
between members of the Shadow Cabinet and between many of them and Mr Heath. By
the end of the afternoon it must have been apparent that Mr Heath would receive
the full support of his colleagues if he dismissed Mr Powell. It was emphasised,
however, that the decision to dismiss Mr Powell belonged to Mr Heath personally.
He appears to have spent most of the day at Broadstairs brooding on the
situation created by Mr Powell's highly emotive speech on the Race elations
Bill, and to have telephoned Mr Powell at Wolverhampton at about 9pm.
