Mariupol. Direct strike of Russian troops at the maternity hospital. People, children are under the wreckage. Atrocity! How much longer will the world be an accomplice ignoring terror? Close the sky right now! Stop the killings! You have power but you seem to be losing humanity.

1/ You’ve seen the fires
You seen the floods
You’ve read the news reports
You’re scared
And now you want to do something about it

But what? And how?

A (longish) thread

‘I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism & war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality…. I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.’

@Rowan_Lawton @4thEstateBooks 👏🏻👏🏻 And mothering a child with disabilities is all of this intensified... so important to be having these discussions

[Rowan Lawton @Rowan_Lawton]

I started #MotherhoodAManifesto by #ElaineGlaister last night & it’s a revelation. She’s articulating so much of what my friends and I discuss - ‘motherhood is feminism’s unfinished business’ 👏 @4thEstateBooks 1/2
