As long as speech is lawful "people should be free to discuss ideas…and other peopl­e shouldn’t prevent this from happening." #FODI co-curator Ann Mossop in an article on how writers festivals are being held hostage to Twitter pile-ons and "outrage mobs". https://t.co/b52BCS7uNd

"If my makeup’s great after a photoshoot or whatever, then I will literally sleep in my makeup so that it looks good the next day. I know that’s terrible, but I don’t care." thanks for the realness @AliciaSilv via @IntoTheGloss https://t.co/aw0YQMyJcr

“In an age of hyper-political correctness and fake news, there’s no better time to reflect on our evolving understandings of truth and trust; to encourage audiences to listen to ideas they may not agree with.” – Danielle Harvey, #FODI Festival Director and Co-curator
