Lutfur Rahman & Wikipedia 10102020

Image
 As part of my routine searches to compile data for my books, I came across Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_minority_politicians_in_the_United_Kingdom#List_of_ethnic_minority_directly_elected_mayors And to my surprise there was no mention of the 1st national directly elected ethnic minority mayor. That annoyed me as I am striving to bolster my community's positive outcomes through my book work.                  The above books are available on on-line stores.   In my opinion irrespective of the demise of the person, equally he strived to get to achieve what he did, did for him as a person and his community. It was a Neil Amstrong moment for the community. "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for community [mankind]." I wasn't happy with Wikipedia for denying the community of the achievement, accomplishment. So as a Wikipedia contributor I entered his information on the...

The "Unsung Heroes", Legacies of the Bangladeshis in UK

This book was published 2010 and  had no clue that it existed. It is only when in recent times, a snippet of an article was feature in a thread of a facebook friend, Mr Boiler man.

This book was a lovely find simply because of the type informatio it had in one book, unlike anyother. Mahbub ...

I'm no expert but have meandered in creating in many sorts, over the years, and I will use this platform which I have recognised [after years] that I can voice myself. I have been taking photographs, I have written proses and poetries, I have painted, sculpted, computer aided designs, visual arts, published books and many others. In no particular order present them to my earthies. This is one of my published book which acts as my catalogue for my pre-forties artwork. I have gone on to produce and publish more books.      Currently living in Cornwall, I have ammassed thousands of photographs as well as started to stretch my creativity side, with so much art and artists in the area; it is difficult to stifle the creativity inside. While I live in...
