I’m profoundly sad to say that as of today, I’ll no longer be able to do my job as co-artistic director of #Touretteshero because of a recent decision by #AccessToWork to cut my support by 61%. Read & share this post, the hardest I've had to write: www.touretteshero.com/2025/05/23/a... 1/4

Or for that matter any other #human characteristics that we the #humans use to exclude each other. All humans must be meaningfully
Included. #WeAreBillionStrong #AXSChat #HumanInclusion

It doesn't matter if you support
#LGBTQIA
#POC
Nationalities
Etc.

- #Diversity is all #humanity
-Humanity needs #equality, #humanrights & feel safe

#Hate has NO RIGHT to take away people's safety, inclusion & #FreeSpeech

Religious beliefs should never justify cruelty against humanity & Diversity

Inclusion is a human rights. Every person deserves to live openly, safely, and with dignity regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or sex characteristics.

Hi Dave, thanks so much for sharing as I'm currently rewatching this.

Its interesting how the original 1958 version is just superb and holds well given it was made so many years ago. The creepy and spooky atmosphere just sings.

If you like Quatermass then you must like Sapphire and Steel too?
