Sad and so wrong, what an inhumane decision

Significant.

A truly remarkable book and a well deserved winner — whose brilliant author Victoria Amelina was killed by a Russian missile in 2023

This book documents the devastating impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine & the courage of women as agents of change. Amelina’s legacy is a powerful testament to the sacrifices demanded of those who pursue truth in the face of atrocity. #2025MoorePrize @wmcollinsbooks.bsky.social

“In the Faustian battle between hope & despair, Crawshaw leaves us with hope. His is a timely message at a moment when international justice movements are facing an existential threat to their very existence” #2025MoorePrize Jury commented. #HumanRights shortlist

“Although this is about a section of Indian society, it covers many angles of #humanrights. Dixit digs deep into the causes of capitalism, inequality, gender, authoritarianism & violent nationalism in a way that has universal relevance” #2025MoorePrize shortlist

“This was a powerful narrative of how the war interupted ordinary lives in #Ukraine. The writing is vivid and it is completely extraordinary how the collective finished the book after Amelina was killed by a Russian bomb.” #2025MoorePrize shortlist #HumanRights writing.

The Jury said: “Most of the public is not aware of the deep issues surrounding international adoption, particularly in conflict zones. This is a compelling story that has resonance for adoption in other crises.” #2025MoorePrize shortlist #HumanRights

Over the moon that 'Anywhere But Here' has been longlisted for the @mooreprize.bsky.social. Hoping this exposure will mean more people read about the realities unfolding on our doorsteps.

So, apart from the threats of annexation, economic warefare, and risk of being detained whilst crossing the border, what's stopping Canadians visiting the US?

In August 2023, Ukrainian journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna disappeared while investigating the secret detention of civilians by Russia. A year later, her body was returned. Tortured. Dead in captivity. Today, we tell her story. #ViktoriiaProject 1/

It’s just bewildering that in 2020, under a Conservative government led by Boris Johnson, we were clapping for carers, and now, just five years later, under a supposedly Labour government led by Keir Starmer, we’re instead telling them to go back to where they came from whilst quoting Enoch Powell.

As a descendant of migrants who returned to the UK as essentially a migrant myself, having left as a child, this is the perfect letter. The constant refrain I have heard for nigh 30 years is why I do not feel this is my home despite being born here
