No rest for the wicked! I’ll be at the SHS conference in Durham next week with the Women's Grassroots Activism Research Network team, talking all about local feminism, urban space + the first Merseyside Women’s Centre on Seel Street. But first need to shake off the post-conference cold after Beyond the Fragments: 45 Years On😩🤧

every other library in north liverpool has permanently closed or had its hours halved because of austerity. spellow was more than a library, it was a warm, safe place for the community. for vulnerable people to access services. to get food bank vouchers! an unconscionable loss

I just donated to 'Books for Spellow Lane' to help repair the library and replenish books for the kids. Follow the link to donate too 👇 #SupportSpellow gofund.me/3e503a09

#OTD 1981 the first women arrived at Greenham Common to protest against nuclear missiles being stored at a nearby RAF base. The protest developed into a women-only Peace Camp, that would protest outside the military base for another 19 years.🧵 (1/8)

Would any historians be able to help - does anyone know if this banner was (likely) made by Thalia Campbell? It looks like her style but can't find any info. Maisie Jepson (she/her) what do you think?

When National Museums Liverpool hired the historian Laurence Westgaph, it knew he had a conviction for statutory rape of a 15-year-old girl and it received new warnings that he had abused other women. Today, The Post reveals the true extent of Westgaph's abuse - and how NML looked the other way.

Have any feminist historians heard of the Red Collective? They supposedly wrote a pamphlet in the early 1970s on non-monogamy and experimental relationships but I can't find it anywhere
