In the wake of the UK Parliament failing in its humanitarian duty to call for a ceasefire in Palestine, we discuss last week's rally outside Parliament and what our next steps should be as UK citizens to hold the government accountable. We also unpack Cassie Ventura's open-and-shut lawsuit against Sean Combs and the coloured conundrum African Americans faced recently when they realised South African artist, Tyla, wasn't (shock horror) Black.

In the spotlight: Sistah Space - an award-winning, community-based non-profit organisation that bridges the gap in domestic abuse services for African heritage women and girls.

If you are a victim of domestic abuse in the UK, please visit the NHS website here, which has a list of 24-hour helplines for women, men, LGBTQ+, forced marriage and honour crimes. In an emergency, call 999.

The next National March for Palestine is on Saturday 25th November. Assemble at Park Lane, 12pm. Click here for more information.
