Fab review of my book on FiLiA's history. Kay Green can see my admiration for FiLiA & that my invocation of Palestine was not intended to derail it but make it more inclusive . As she says, 'Rahila didn’t throw a dead cat, she threw a live elephant.' kaygreen.blog/2025/10/30/v...

Endorsement no 3 ‘My two favourite women to think with have been thinking with each other about why patriarchy does not die, and more importantly, how it adapts and shapeshifts in different contexts. This book helps us imagine how to dismantle the systems that deny women freedom.’ — Liz Kelly

Endorsement no 2: ‘Inspiring and challenging. There’s an idea on every page and outrage in every chapter. Ambitious in its scope, looking at women’s struggle for equality in seven countries, it still manages to tell individual stories of heroism...— Philippa Gregory @hurstpublishers.bsky.social

This event is sold out. We've had great endorsements though. ‘Urgent, incisive and hugely readable. The authors—two of our most brilliant advocates for women’s rights—make visible the often hidden ways in which patriarchy remains so resilient.’

As I think Mother's Day is just another opportunity for money making, I'd like to mark it with a less sentimental image of motherhood.

I am not a supporter of Hamas, these #Israeli hostages were important to them as bargaining chips keeping them healthy & alive under constant bombardment. But Israel is so powerful, it did not need the PR, it could openly ill treat the #Palestinian hostages without fear of censure, with US backing.
