Without a doubt the most beautiful, powerful, & engaging show I’ve seen in a long time ♥️

“Khalid brings together the personal and the political in an act of anti-biography that asks how we got here and how we find agency amidst the mazes of history”

Can we take a rest?
Maybe die for a few
months or years
and wake up when the poem
is complete,
when the flowers in our
garden start to grow,
their scent luring
the sparrows into visiting
our house,
our house that’s now
a small forest of rubble.

‘What’s next? Burning books?’

‘Prior to taking down the stand, @KSUMalta ordered the removal of material related to reproductive rights & @MovGraffitti “obviously” refused. In turn, KSU allegedly took down the stand in the middle of the night without informing the human rights NGO’

Shameful behaviour by the Maltese University Student Council @KSUMalta!

[Voice for Choice @V4CMalta]

What we have to deal with in Malta! The University Student Council (@KSUMalta) dismantled @MovGraffitti’s stand at Freshers Week for handing out leaflets with information on abortion support services!

“Хто визволиться сам, той буде вільний” - Леся Українка

[Margo Gontar 🔱 @MargoGontar]

This is Lesia Ukrainka - one of the most famous Ukrainians. Known for her poems, her fight for Ukraine and active political and feminist position

“who frees oneself, will be free”

her words became slogan of Maidan protests in Kyiv

Her story is crucial to understand Ukraine

We need to make sure that the decriminalisation of abortion becomes a reality in the UK. But this victory cannot come at the cost of respect for brown and black bodies.
