birmingham city two points above the drop and middle wall and stoke city are nervously looking over theirtheir shoulders. the championship always - over their shoulders. the championship always gripping, ben croucher, the championship. always gripping. the burnley manager vincent kompany says the standard of refereeing in the premier league hasn't been good enough this season. he was shown a red card over the weekend during their draw at chelsea, after protesting against a penalty decision that saw one of his players sent off. the frustration comes from the fact that is a succession of mistakes, and it's always debatable, so when it's one game and one event and is debatable, just like this case could be debatable, less so than other cases, i think, but you can always debate, but it is the succession of it for us this season, and the effects on points. kompany was speaking ahead of their game against wolves tomorrow night. we've also heard from the west ham manager david moyes today. he's urged the supporters to get behind kalvin phillips. the hammers were leading newcastle 3—1 on saturday

birmingham city council, labour—run, is a shambles, isn't it?on want a labour mayor? so, let's be clear, birmingham has had many issues and mistakes have been made. but we can't avoid the fact that the government have taken £1 billion out of the budgets of the city council, and that's done a lot of damage. from the contest here, to the wider landscape. north yorkshire, much of the north—east of england and the east midlands are electing mayors for the first time in a fortnight. elsewhere, it's still fairly new. what do you think should happen next with mayors, and what would you say to the person who says, it'sjust yet more politicians? in many places, mayors are only being elected for the second or third time. so it's a relatively new kind of governance that we're seeing. i think there's quite a strong case, both from an economic and social point of view, but also from a fairness and democratic point of view, for evening out that patchwork and completing the map of english devolution. that'll be a call for whoever governs after the general elec

african-americans at this point in all the cities, united states of america, only one city had a higher percentage of black folks. it was birmingham, alabama, then atlanta, georgia. atlanta, georgia already had a disproportionately high number of black people of all the cities in the united states, there was one black daily newspaper was a chicago defender, was the amsterdam news. it wasn't the washington bee, it was the atlanta world. atlanta had created a military had created a military offshoot. they created a media by the 1940s, a chain newspapers of the 1940s. atlanta had distinguished itself as exceptional space of black achievement early on. so this book explores that as well. and this harlem renaissance historians have moved away from to talk about the national impact of this blossoming of energy of intellectual work and artistic work at this time. so this also comes up here finally at the very moment this all happens, which is surprising to a lot of people. we have this term, the the city to visit hate in the 1920s as a land was going through its own renaissance. that outpaced in many ways pound for pound was going on in
