At Glastonbury yesterday, a band called for “inshallah, from the river to the sea.” The crowd cheered. When I hear that phrase chanted with joy, I feel fear and - whoever you are - so should you.
Most people don’t understand what it means. But it’s been used for decades by those who want to erase Jews from where their language, faith & indigenous culture began. A place that was meant to offer refuge when the rest of the world shut its door.
I’ve spoken out against injustice & unbearable loss. I’ve made work about the ‘Nakba’ & the ongoing trauma of Palestinians.
But “from the river to the sea” doesn’t call for peace.
It calls for a world without Jews. You can stand for Palestinian rights without denying Jewish ones. You can oppose a government without wishing away a people. If your activism leaves no room for someone else’s safety, grief or history it’s not activism. It’s hate.
Join me and the fabulous Beth, as we discuss give some practical advice and strategies to make life easier for everyone!
The session is £20 and you’ll get access to the session (and us both!) for 30 days afterwards.

Rayner. A woman who came from nothing and fought her way up to the role of Deputy PM and Secretary of State.
What an inspiration.
This will be the most working class government in British political history.
No more old Etonians making decisions for us.
This is hope.
1/2 I have a small Angela Rayner personal anecdote...
When I was struggling with how elitist Westminster was when I first started in the lobby, she gave me an important pep talk on how we can't let privileged people make us feel like we don't belong in these spaces
@MillicentMach hi! I’ve had an email saying it’s from you and would just like to confirm it’s legit and not a scam. Could you reply please. (I’ve sent a connection request on LinkedIn too). Thanks
