✨ New Blog Post ✨ Mobilising hope for the Women, Peace & Security Agenda & its 25th anniversary - over coffee and Idli, Diksha Poddar & I discussed how we could link hope as a feminist concept to the agenda's future.

📣 What does hope mean in the contemporary world? 🕊️ On #PRIFblog, Diksha Poddar and Madita Standtke-Erdmann argue: It is a powerful, feminist tool and anchor for the irrevocable belief in achieving social justice and security - which can help us to re-imagine the future of the UN's #WPS-Agenda ⬇️

In Berlin, an exhibition of the paintings of Lovis Corinth – deemed ‘degenerate’ by the Nazis – makes for a gripping show about why the work is where it is and whose hands it has passed through on the way, writes Matthew Sperling

Happy b’day, “American Idiot” — released as a single 21 years ago today, and written in the wake of the Iraq War. “The country had gone into a war based on lies,” said Billie Joe Armstrong, “and no one seemed to care. .. It was a song that came from a very honest, pissed-off place.”

“When it comes to governing, sex is not an input, with a predefined meaning, determining the state’s rules. It’s an output, a creation of those rules, reverse-engineered to fit what an agency needs sex to do.” @paisleycurrah.com reminds us how “sex” is a contingent political and legal category.

Dort zeichnete er seine wohl bekannteste Illustration des Lieds "Die Moorsoldaten". Mit seiner Frau Lya floh er anschließend nach Paris, beide kämpften in der Résistance. Er fertigte u. a. antifaschistische Plakate, Flugblätter sowie Ausweispapiere für Illegale an. 🧵
