Britain likes to believe that Educationally Subnormal (ESN) schools belong to a discredited past: a shameful episode closed, archived, and morally resolved. But ESN was not simply a policy, it was a worldview. One that treated white, middle-class norms as neutral intelligence and Black difference as deficiency. Thousands of Black children were siphoned out of mainstream education, denied exams, and quietly written off by a system that called exclusion “assessment.” The state has never......

The industry is scrambling to catch up, audiences are electrified, and the Academy suddenly looks far more open to films that refuse to play safe.

Michael B. Jordan arrived at the Golden Globes with the kind of energy that suggested the night was already his. Sinners had dominated the nominations, sweeping up wins in other categories and positioning him as the obvious favourite for Best Actor. Walking the carpet with his mother, he carried the pride of a man whose work had not only moved audiences but elevated the entire film. Yet when the envelope opened and another name was called, the room shifted. Shock wasn’t whispered; it was felt. How does the leading force behind one of the most talked‑about films of the year walk away empty‑handed......

Veteran actor T.K. Carter, best known for his unforgettable roles in The Thing and the beloved children’s series Punky Brewster, has passed away at the age of 69. For many Black actors coming up in the industry during the 1980s and 1990s, Carter represented possibility. His blend of comedic timing, emotional depth and cultural authenticity carved out space in an era when opportunities were far more limited. Children of that generation will forever remember him as Mike Fulton, the warm, steady presence in Punky Brewster, a programme that brightened countless young lives and offered a sense of comfort and joy......
