Greta Thunberg responds to an apparent threat by U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, who said the activists sailing to Gaza would need to "swim." "It says a lot about their priorities that, in the face of genocide and systematic starvation of 2 million people, lawmakers … are focusing on mocking people."

We stand in solidarity with our trans siblings and are united in our anger at the Supreme Court ruling & EHRC update. Trans, non-binary and intersex people are facing exclusion from basic aspects of public life. Please read this thread that contains recommendations and calls to action.
Black text on background of Trans Solidarity Flag: Fossil Free Books stands in solidarity with our trans siblings. We are united in our anger at the Supreme Court ruling and EHRC update.

Rather than providing “clarity”, this ruling and the EHRC interim update are causing confusion, uncertainty and fear. 

They have also given strength to the authoritarian, sexist campaign for the persecution and ostracism of trans women. 

Trans, non-binary and intersex people – including bookworkers – are facing exclusion from basic aspects of public life.

My debut novel These Mortal Bodies comes out in July and I'm running a workshop about writing friendship as the light and dark of friendship is at the heart of the book. To join you can just DM or email me with proof of purchase in any form - I'd love to see you there ❤️ #Writing #BookSky
Writing Friendship, Online, 11th June 7-8.30pm

Friendships can define our lives, in ways both light and dark, but often they aren't centred in art or written about as much as other kinds of love. To attend the workshop and explore writing about friendship, just pre-order a copy of These Mortal Bodies in any form and get in touch with your proof or purchase!

Relieved at news of Mahmoud and Ahmad's release, though their house arrest and restrictions are another appalling government over reach: Bookselling is NOT A CRIME! Solidarity continues to be needed as the case continues, and as the bookshop gets back on its feet.

In the Democratic Republic of Congo, government forces and allies defending the city of Goma appear to have collapsed, with rebels backed by neighboring Rwanda claiming they have taken over the city.

Rwanda-backed rebels claim to have seized key city in Congo
Rwandan backed rebels have entered the city of Goma, a key city in neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo. Could the mineral rich region be in danger of tipping into all out regional conflict?
