De-zionising my brain
🥴
I'm on a quest to de-zi0nise my brain.
Which is easier said than done.
But one of the (more enjoyable) ways I do that is try to go along to as many of Yousef Alreemawi's lectures as possible.
They are EXACTLY the right combination of storytelling, language, history, poetry and lived experience for me...and there's always delicious food!
And tonight we even got to have a special visit by His Majesty Moody ✨️ 👑 ✨️
Which was perfect timing because I finally got to give him his BIRTHday present. A wonderful book by Randa Abdel-Fattah and illustrated by Maxine Beneba ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh! And when I asked King Moody's parents if I could share our photo with a sticker covering his face, they told me there's no need because he already has his own Tiktok profile!!!
Which means he beat me to it! 🙈🙉🙊
I set mine up a couple of days ago after getting confirmation from Meta that they are definitely limiting my reach 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
🎤 My mic arrived today...so stay tuned for me embarrassing myself any day now doing videos.
(There will be NO DANCING)
Never a dull moment...
I wonder if you know Abigail Abarbanel, a former Israeli like yourself, now based in Scotland after living in Australia and, as a psychoanalyst, is able to re-wire people’s brains including her own. You both do excellent work and give me hope.
