Am very grateful to Helena el Masri of the Institute of Linguists for working on it with me. Two Kurdish women lawyers told me in Amsterdam in 2024 that my work has changed the way Kurdish lawyers and defendants think about their own language and their linguistic rights, that makes me so proud. πŸ₯Ή

Today I'm finalising the last booklet/report in my 8 years of human rights work for IPI, then PEN Norway.

In the last 3 years of my job I studied and reported on Kurdish Linguistic Rights in the Courtroom and the new booklet is the first ever training manual for Kurdish Turkish Legal Interpreters.

I’ve been looking for a poem of hers I read a few years back in which she says.. something like…

β€œI take a few steps, like a robin, have a glass of champagne, it must be my birthday… … and remember property is theft. β€œ

Do you know which it is!?

One of my favourite β€˜after’ poems- Mary Ruefle’s Red, a response to William Carlos Williams’ Red Wheebarrow.

This poet even had a spleen dream a few weeks ago. A wise man, cross legged guru-style told me I needed to have a splenetic orgasm in order to relieve myself of anger. 😯 I’m working on it. πŸ˜‚

β€œClara Zetkin, the German writer, politician and public speaker who founded International Women’s Day, believed it was socialism that would set working class people freeβ€”women and men alike.”

March is a great time to spot the odd glow of zodiacal light. Here's how to see it The zodiacal light is at its most visible on the nights surrounding the spring and autumn equinoxes.

The introduction includes a great slight - XX β€œwhose name is more beautiful than his book” 🀣 might steal that for a future review.
