Aminatou~~maybe you would like to know about https://www.elleiraalecole.org/en/home-us/, another org in Guinea? It was started by Folly Bah Thibault, periodiste guineenne par excellence (based in Doha, working for AJE) in honor of her sister Kesso. There is much to love about their work and Folly and her other sisters' general outstandingness.
Love this history lesson! IWD is one of my fave days because of the march in Toronto which for almost 50 years has brought together labour, international solidarity, and feminist organizers to reflect and rally. Here at least it is one of the least commercial marches we have and it soothes some of my cynicism and gives me hope. And I also just get to see so many of my friends! Happy IWD! Love your newsletter big time!
Thank you for both indulging my cynicism AND making me feel less cynical about it
that’s indeed what we do over here 💫
