“We would not be here if western reporters and Joe Biden hadn’t manufactured consent for the genocide by repeating the incendiary lie that Hamas had beheaded babies.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"The idea that art is political isn’t a deformation of art. It’s a fulfilment of it," I said. A profile on the cost of speaking out, although I stress how much more this costs other writers. But there are also benefits to speaking out--a clear conscience, happiness and joy, new allies and friends.

“When I sit down to write a book, I do not say to myself, ‘I am going to produce a work of art.’ I write it because there is some lie that I want to expose, some fact to which I want to draw attention, and my initial concern is to get a hearing.” — George Orwell

Having lived in New Zealand for several years I know from Māori friends how difficult the last week has been. The PM should never have agreed to letting the Act party propose a bill on Māori rights. Truly shameful. This haka in Parliament as a protest against the bill is inspiring though.

Kinda surreal waking up on the other side of the world to this news - #2 bestseller - from our publisher @SidhePress and to see our stunned words of witness and our agonised cries in excellent company Details on purchasing (all proceeds to educational work in Gaza) here

This year, I've spent a bit of time reflecting on what success means in the context of the world we live in, when so much of it is heartbreaking 💔 This poem resonates and is a good reminder of what really matters - it keeps me grounded.
