#BelfastRiots In a statement, the family of Stephen Ogilvy said that they do not want this "terrible tragedy to be used to divide people or fuel hostility". "We have many migrants who make a deeply valuable contribution to our country, including in our healthcare system and hospitality sector and we depend on them to make our country work."

May 25, 2020. George Floyd's death shook the world. Protests in every country. A promise of change for all. But 6 years later — what has actually changed? Just last week in Dublin, Ireland Yves Sakila met his death under similar restraint from security guards. George Floyd’s family says ‘Not enough has changed’. His aunt Angela Harrelson said it best: "When we get to the point where we don't have to say the words Black Lives Matter — that's when we know we have arrived." What are your thoughts? Drop a comment. 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 #georgefloyd #blacklivesmatter

St Kitts and Nevis become first Caribbean nation to recognise Rastafari faith in law The Prime Minister further highlighted the importance of respecting Rastafari not only as a religion, but as a way of life that is deeply rooted in the identity of many citizens. “It is written in our Constitution, Madam Speaker, but we took a step to recognize Rastafarianism as a religion in Saint Kitts and Nevis as a faith practice, or what the members who practice it prefer to call it a way of life, a faith based way of life,” he added.
