I had a lovely morning participating in the @beinghumanfest.bsky.social 'History, Memory, Resistance: Section 28 in Wales' event in Cardiff. I was quite nervous going in honestly, but it was a really warm and healing space.

Really liked this collection of poems. Powerful, deeply personal and political, and all about being alive.
