Another amazing Tuesday night at The Foremothers Café! We just had a wonderful conversation with Wiam Abdulghani about women's agency and what it means to make your own choices. We learned that as a Muslim woman in Sweden, choosing to cover your hair is an act of courage. You go Wiam!

The best part about our international community is that if someone isn't comfortable speaking English, chances are someone can translate. Today, Edward in Canada translated for Massy who logged on in France. No Borders here. Thank you Edward for telling Massy about @helenerwin.bsky.social books!

Edward speaks French with Massy translating from English and shows author Helen Lundström Erwin's books. They're in Virtual Reality at The Foremothers Cafe.

Edward shows Massy Helen's books on the coffee table.

Yesterday blew our minds. Truly. It doesn't matter that we're used to being in VR. Traveling from a little cafe in Sweden in 1918 to Mars in 2026, spacesuits included n'all with the General Director of the Swedish National Space Agency was priceless. #VR #Mars #Science
