The new manuscript is raucous. I couldn't help myself, really (or stop myself, I can't tell the difference). All I know is, these things NEEDED to be said. And I thought I might be the only one left to say them. So, I did. Thank you, @quailbellmag #poetry #feministart #NYC

If England occupies Ireland for another 800 years. The Irish will resist the occupation for 800 more years. That's why we come down on the same side of the Irish, and with other peoples who are resisting settler colonialism. That's how solidarity works. #IrishTwitter #History

Thought I'd throw my hat in the #IrishTwitter ring. Seen a lot of "shouldn't be blamed for things her ancestors did" To which James Connolly had a very apt response when the King visited Ireland in 1911 Socialist Republic for Ireland and for all soon to be former colonies 🇮🇪🇭🇲🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
