"It didn't matter where you came from or how much money you had, everyone had the right to the knowledge & pleasure of books, to the light the library offered..." @MissLizBerry on public libraries & why they're worth fighting for. Please listen & share❤️‍🔥

Dear @BhamCityCouncil, we musn't let the word 'transformation' become a euphemism for 'decimating public services and making life worse for communities'. We need to generate hope and belief that our city can change in positive ways. Kind regards, @MissLizBerry

[Birmingham City Council @BhamCityCouncil]

Following approval at Cabinet, the city's library and neighbourhood advice services are transformed. 📚

I wrote a long-read for @brumdispatch about my teenage love for zines and why action is beautiful and powerful exactly when we feel most powerless.
