5,000 Israeli & Palestinian women jointly marched to Jerusalem in 2017 under the banner Women Wage Peace. The march is celebrated in a song on Youtube, titled Prayer of the Mothers. It's time that men of war listened to the prayers of mothers.

“In one of the most notable moments in sports history, Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped thinking he had completed the race.

A Spanish athlete, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him, and after realizing what was happening, he started shouting at the Kenyan for him to continue running; but Mutai didn't understand his Spanish.

Fernandez eventually caught up to him and instead of passing him, he pushed him to victory.

A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"
Ivan replied, “My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win.” The journalist insisted “But why did you let the Kenyan win?" Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win.” The journalist insisted again, “But you could have won!”Ivan looked at him & replied, “But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor of that medal?
What would my Mom think of that?”

Values are transmitted from generation to generation.

What values are we teaching our children?

Let us not teach our kids the wrong ways to WIN.”

I watched the BBC documentary on Una Marson this week. Amazing woman! Described as the most important person you’ve never heard of. Poet and first black woman to have a play in the West End. First black BBC producer in the 1940s. Watch on catch-up

God bless, Queen Diana. This should have been her day as well

@JustStop_Oil When the sentences for corruption gets shorter and shorter, and the sentences for activism gets longer and longer, then you know something is seriously wrong.

This jury decision brings shame on the USA.

The 26th COP is yet again failing to take the necessary action needed to address global warming. Traditional politicians are incapable of addressing the crisis. It is time to shake the political tree by voting in tens of millions for an environmental party

[Mr Blue @County172]

The world's political leaders need to "feel the hand of history on their shoulders" when making pledges to save the planet. The pledges should be recorded in stone at the UN so future generations can see who kept their pledge and who broke them.

@LBC Of course, she does, any right-minded person can see that racism is unacceptable and needs to be challenged
