Today we are walking for the women of Gaza. And honouring our mothers in doing so. In peace. #CeasefireForGazaNOW

This little boy is only just older than my own grandson. So heartbreaking.💔

This is America - should you be an older woman Professor who goes to the aid of your students.😪

This man Akram al-Safari is so brave and so dedicated to reporting the truth. I pray for his safety every time I see him. Am sure, like most other Palestinian journalists he will be constantly targeted by the Israelis.

Interesting to read 'artist activists' are now a problem. Just completed my PhD about why my pursuit of excellence, quality and equality in my social art practice was always inseparable from my feminist, anti-war, civil rights, working-class politics. artsprofessional.co.uk/magazine/artic…

Hoping, in the light of the denial of the very existence of a Jewish bloc by certain politicians, media folk and professional agitators, there will be more of us there than ever on Saturday. ❤️

Find it difficult, when I think of the struggle it is for most freelance artists to simply survive these days, to imagine someone being honoured for ‘outstanding contribution to the arts’ for simply turning up and smiling.

Have a feeling #StGeorge is hiding his head in shame today - and thanking God he never needed to seek succour or refuge in England #RwandaBill

Seems the The White House now believes poets are cause of the world's problems. Brings me joy to hear how powerful poetry can be. Let's keep sharing poems. ❤️

Am I alone in thinking there is something totally obscene in celebrating 40,000 deaths in this way?

Went to an evening of beautiful Palestinian poetry. Thank you White Kite Collective. Feeling sad that the words that stayed with me are from Ibrahim Nasrallah’s ‘Palestinian’ beginning ‘I was silent and nothing came of it. I spoke and nothing came of it’ 💔proteanmag.com/2024/03/24/pal…

We have no need to imagine what would happen if missiles hit a populated neighbourhood, Tzipi Hotovely. Seems that, despite being its ambassador, no one has told you what Israel has been doing to tens of thousands of women and children for the past six months?!

Would like to invite you to join us in celebrating my son Jamie Tiller's life in the style he would have appreciated. Grab a glass of something and boogy on down to his original NTS radio show. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️nts.live/shows/jamie-ti…

What an inspiring and wonderful group! Wishing Eid Takbeer to each of them. ❤️

Am working with Poetry Translation Centre as they celebrate their 20th anniversary. A few weeks ago had the privilege of creating a collective translation - with a good deal of help from Elhum Shakerifar of this beautiful poem by Parinaz Fahimi from the original Farsi. Cinnamon.

We need more women like Donna E. Shalala in this world!

That The Labour Party think a boring old fogey like Tony Robinson is going to appeal to anyone but Tory boomers just shows how out of touch they are with the majority of people in this country.

Today is my 75th Birthday. April 4th 1949 was the day NATO was created. It is also the anniversary of the assassination of #MartinLutherKingJr . I have tried to live my life in the spirit of the latter rather than the former. ❤️

🚨 Artists are removing their artwork from HOME in protest of the venue’s decision to cancel an event celebrating Palestinian stories.

One artist accuses the venue of having “contributed to the silencing of Palestinian voices at a time when they most need to be heard”
