Debbie Stoute in tribute to Darcus Howe: As a 1970's child growing up during the 1980s, I want to say thank you to civil rights activist Darcus Howe - who died Saturday 1 April 2017 - for all he did for me and my generation of black kids in the UK. We all owe him a debt of gratitude. He highlighted and fought to rectify injustice for everyone in a powerful and eloquent way. A real people's hero.
I'm a highly intelligent, articulate and well-educated human being with an intuitive but enterprising sense of responsibility and a strong moral compass that instinctively demarcates what's right and wrong.
Trust, confidentiality and having the courage, regardless of what I do, to formulate and stand by my own personal convictions are key aspects of my life and, unsurprisingly, are also principal characteristics I attach great importance to and naturally expect from those who want to play a meaningful role in my life.
I don't suffer fools gladly, in fact not at all and most definitely haven’t got any interest in or time for egotists, time-wasters, attention seekers or the narcissistic.
Furthermore, I’m an adult and in my private and professional lives prefer to deal with genuine adults, so anyone who wants to act childishly and thinks they can have any kind of relationship with me, then you’re wrong!
And my advice to you in that regard is to go and enrol in a kindergarten as you'll possibly have better luck there.
