Hi friends,
Yesterday I took my 10 month old on a family march for Gaza in my hometown of Frome. Heaps of kids were there with placards and signs, handing out watermelon and having fun together.
We marched together through our streets, letting the people of Frome know that we have not forgotten what is happening in Palestine. That our hearts our collectively breaking for the ongoing nightmare that Israel is inflicting on innocent civilians.
I think it’s vital that we create spaces to lament and grieve and try to imagine new worlds together. I hope that, in some small way, our BRAVE NEW WORLDS book club does this. I would LOVE to see you there.
If you are forgetful, like me, or only tend to read the book the week of the book club (also like me) then this is your friendly reminder to:

(I know, I should have shared the eventbrite link earlier. But I’m lucky if I can find a pair of matching socks in the morning so I hope you’ll forgive me).
JOIN US at 7.30pm (GMT) 26th June ON ZOOM
It’s a short book - only 170 pages, so there’s still plenty of time to read it. And you are welcome to join us for discussion even if you haven’t managed to finish!
See you there,
Grace
