I’m still in shock! Dawn was always there for others. She offered me such great support in my journey with cancer right up to her last day. I am so sorry that your world has turned upside down. May Dawn rest in eternal peace. 🤲🏽💔

New York schools tell Trump administration they won’t comply with DEI order.

State officials say they don’t believe US Department of Education has authority to demand an end to DEI practices.

UN "Around 100 CHILDREN have either been killed or injured EVERY DAY since the ceasefire collapsed in Gaza."

Nothing to see here - just over 15000 dead children.

A stain on humanity.

Today is #InternationalChildrensBookDay
#ICBD is celebrated to inspire a love of reading and to call attention to children's books.
So in 2025 what better way to celebrate than to call attention to books about Palestine 🇵🇸

Energy bills up 6.4% — while network providers raked in £4 billion in “excess” profits over four years.

Water bills up 26% — while firms paid £78 billion in dividends since privatisation & racked up £64 billion in debt.

End this scam. Bring water & energy into public ownership.

Dawn is genuinely one of my favourite humans. She’s been so kind and thoughtful to me, and she’s constantly in my thoughts. I really hope we can support her in some way during this difficult time.
