Bristol has lost more than a community activist. It has lost a conscience.
Ras Judah — born Judah Adunbi — stood at the crossroads of protest and purpose for more than four decades. From the fires of St Pauls in 1980 to the painful spotlight of 2017, he never stopped organising, mentoring, and holding institutions to account.
This is not simply a tribute. It is a reminder of the standard he set — and the responsibility he leaves behind.
Baroness Rosalind Howells of St Davids (1931–2025)
A daughter of Grenada who became a pillar of justice in Britain.
From the parish of St Davids to the House of Lords, she carried her people’s hope and her island’s spirit into every space she entered.
A pioneer in race relations, education, and equality — and a steadfast supporter of the Lawrence family in their pursuit of justice for Stephen. Her life reminds us that progress is not born of comfort, but of courage.
Rest in Power, Baroness Howells.
Your light endures.
Five years ago, George Floyd’s final words shook the world: “I can’t breathe.”
Today, we reflect—not just to remember, but to ask: What has changed? What are we still building?
In his name, we continue the work—for justice, for dignity, for a world where we can all breathe.
