It is no exaggeration to say that without John, EISA would not exist today. Read our full statement here: buff.ly/VysIZwh

At #EISAPEC25 I was helped wonderfully by the librarians of the Biblioteca Italiana Delle Donne--the women’s library.

A library by women, about women (and gender more broadly), for *all*.

It's in the courtyard of the Santa Cristina location (an old nunnery). Do go visit!
