Here it is …

#ZeynabJalalian has spent over 15 yrs unjustly jailed for her social & political activism, including to empower Kurdish women. Khamenei.ir must release her NOW. Authorities have denied her healthcare, tortured & ill-treated her & sentenced her to life in prison. #IWD2023

On #IWD2023 I honour the women that are an inspiration to us all.

The women of Ukraine.

Those who, by joining the army, smashed a glass ceiling over the head of the Russian invaders,

And those who have become unbreakable forces for good, like Олена Зеленська

Today, on #InternationalWomensDay , I call to remember & honor the brave women of Belarus who stood up against tyranny. Masha, Katsiaryna, Marfa, Danuta & many more - there are almost 200 female political prisoners in Belarus right now. Every one of them deserves freedom. #IWD2023

History makers 💪

Today, the #Lionesses have achieved their landmark legacy goal: for every girl in England to be given equal access to football and school sport.

I had a lot of fun recording this episode with Kaiser Kuo and Jeremy Goldkorn. A chance to say thank you to everyone involved in Sinica Podcast for informing/entertaining/educating the rest of us about China week in/week out.

Agreed:

NEW: There has been barely any progress in closing the gender earnings gap in the last 25 years, once you account for increases in women’s education.
