Libraries raised me. Libraries are third spaces. Libraries are so much more than just books… libraries are community. Libraries teach us, encourage us to come together in joy, to come together to help our neighbors. Libraries know there are times where we turn up the volume on our library voice 💚
Text from Mychal reads: “People feel so safe behind their keyboards to attack you when you speak up. Do not let that stop you! Words ARE hurtful, but they ARE temporary. Words of hope for those who need you and your voice are far more lasting. Support is so much louder than toxicity
Those libraries I love taught me to speak up for my neighbors who need me. Speak up for Gaza, for Palestine, for Sudan, for the Congo, for FAR too many more people that need us to be their voice, to prove to them they are not unseen 💚”

Post as an example for Mychal’s words are:
“Bye Mychal. Gaza is a gd war zone not a tourist resort and its every woe is because of Hamas. Grow tf up and learn something in those libraries you love.”

We're looking for disabled people (incl. people with mental health conditions & neurodivergent people) to be part of our advisory group for a project @uniofeastanglia.bsky.social aiming to improve clinical trial accessibility. Email me at r.linnett@uea.ac.uk if you'd like more info. Please share!
A recruitment flyer with the "Funded by NIHR" logo and University of East Anglia logo at the top. There is a headline in large bold black letters that reads "Disabled people are often excluded from clinical trials. Can you help us change this?" Underneath, in smaller navy text it reads "We need disabled people and their carers to help guide our research and give us feedback on the resources we create". "Disabled people and their carers" is highlighted in pink text. Underneath are two pink boxes; the first says "We're creating a course that gives researchers tools to improve the accessibility of their trials" and the second says "We will ask you to attend our online consultation meetings or give feedback via email". To the right is a large pink circle; in the centre in white text it reads "You will be paid £25 per hour for your time". In the bottom right, white text on a navy background reads "If you're interested or want more information email Rebecca: r.linnett@uea.ac.uk".

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM
“That they should be the ones to welcome Pope Francis’s coffin in the basilica is because these people are those who represented the focus of his mission,” said Father Giulio Albanese, head of missionary cooperation and communications for the Vicariate of Rome. “They are those who live on the peripheries, geographical and existential peripheries.”

Prior to the recent Hamas vs Israel war there were popular mass protests against Hamas, Palestinians were demanding better governance; standing up against corruption. The Oct 7 attacks and subsequent Israeli mass destruction completely stopped that movement. Now it’s back, mass protests in Gaza.
