Blogs – The Tetley

Welcome to The Tetley's Blog - a Place for Reflection, Provocation and Discussion

2020 has become a time to reflect deeply on what we as individuals, and as organisations do; how we do it and why we do it.

Jermaine Ranger - The Tetley's Facilities Manager and Co-founder of Black Owned Economy

Whilst a lot of our thoughts are rightly focused towards this global pandemic, coronavirus, lockdown restrictions, etc, Jermaine shares his thoughts, observations and experiences relating to another important subject, which is Black Lives Matter.

One of the most revolutionary and heartening aspects of this time is the diversity of the coalition supporting BLM specifically, and advocating for substantive structural change more generally. How much of this energy will be sustained?

As we mourn the death of George Floyd on 25^th May 2020 in Minneapolis, USA, we think of the death of David Oluwale on 18^th April 1969 in Leeds, UK.
