Flaks og tilfeldigheter kan ikke avgjøre hvem som får rehabilitering! Les debattinnlegget som @GertyLund og jeg har hos Altinget. Vi er klare til å bidra til gode endringer. @ingvildkjerkol@helse_og_omsorg@Ergoterapeutene https://t.co/vXY7bdVXHx
Hei @vgnett @VGpluss
Jeg ber dere vennligst om å ikke ha denne saken bak betaling. Vær så snill. Av respekt og hensyn til Sidra og de andre barna. Deres historie trenger å bli hørt og lest av så mange som mulig. Vennligst, spander denne. https://t.co/dJAi0yZ9j5
Powerful words by 102 years old philosopher Edgar Morin, one of France's most revered intellectual figures, as well as a Jewish WW2 resistant who fought as a lieutenant in De Gaulle's France combattante.

Here are his words on Gaza: "I am both astonished and outraged by the fact that those who represent the descendants of a people who were persecuted for centuries for religious or racial reasons... That the descendants of this people who are today the decision-makers of the State of Israel, that they could not only colonize an entire people, partly drive them out of their land and seek to expel them for good... But also, after the massacre of October 7, engaged in a real massive slaughter on the populations of Gaza and continue, incessantly, hitting civilians, women, and children.
And to see the silence of the world, the silence of the United States, protectors of Israel, the silence of the Arab states, the silence of the European states who claim to be defenders of culture, humanity, human rights.
I think we are living through a horrible tragedy because we are also powerless in the face of this thing that is unleashing. At least, I say: bear witness! The only thing that remains if we cannot resist concretely is to testify. Let's resist in our minds, let's not be fooled, let's not forget, let's have the courage to face things head-on."

Åpent spørsmål: 'Racism' og 'sexism' har sine norske ekvivalenter. Men et norsk ord som betegner 'ableism', diskriminering av og fordommer mot funksjonshemmede, er ikke i allmenn bruk. 'Funksjonalisme' er, dessverre, opptatt. Gode forslag eller eksempler?

During the first world war, ergotherapy was used with the aim of reconnecting patients with their environment, society, and self. Could it be a useful approach for those whose mental health has been affected by covid-19? #ChristmasBMJ
