Very proud of this special issue, co-edited with the brilliant Elizabeth Orcutt - intersectional feminist self-portraiture in its most expanded form

[MAI: Feminism and Visual Culture @MAIfeminism]

Today's Friday focus read from MAI 15: “Introspective Selves: Feminist Self-Portriature” - introducing the issue, Orcutt and Woolley highlight that feminist self-representation is always an inquiry into evolving intersectional experience https://t.co/gTWwvwdLbT

Jo Brand, "You must be upset on behalf of all those non doms who are about to lose their tax break?"

Ian Hislop, "I'm just devastated.. The idea that Lord Rothermere, the owner of the Mail may lose his non dom status, it's gutting.. What sort of country do we live in"

Paul Merton, "Not the same one as him"

A Telegraph writer describes how having her hair cut short led to transphobes calling her a man but still can't seem to join the dots and understand what the "gender critical" movement is really about (enforcing conservative gender stereotypes).

Israel has spent the past year desecrating international law on live TV.

Now it is waging war on the UN itself, including 10,000 peacekeepers from 50 countries stationed in Lebanon.

What will it take for the UK to end its military, economic & diplomatic support for Israel?

If UK news shows are going to give Boris Johnson a platform to spout his absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it

We cannot allow those once in power to rewrite history.

If you agree RT this FACT CHECK

[Kate Osborne @KateOsborneMP]

I was pleased to speak on the report @coe on LBQ women, we have seen attacks on #LBQ women and our right to exist

Abuse is designed to silence & I will use my platform to call it out

Thank you to everyone who came to the workshop yesterday. I can’t wait to see the images people produced.

I spotted one of our posters in the wild - this one is in Hyde Park, Leeds. Thanks @popartmediagroup for supporting the competition.
