Thanks @GuardianUS for the commission and the many Wampanoag people - from the @MWTribe , Aquinnah and @herringpondWT tribes- who took the time to talk to me including @Kisha890 - the granddaughter of Wamsutta Frank James who founded the National Day of Mourning in 1970

Millennial journalists on their careers: I got a degree, masters, worked for free for experience and then took a huge risk to freelance in dangerous places with no support before anyone would hire me.
Boomer journalists: I existed so someone gave me a job.
The most beautiful piece I’ve read in years
Whole generations of adults were lost to institutionalization. They were warehoused, hidden away, forgotten. So many of us colluded in their erasure.
This piece is my small attempt to un-erase one of them. 8/8

It was frustrating for many that the long wait+reversal by Frimley ICB meant no full hearing/no chance for case law -but the case itself had such an explosive impact it undoubtedly played a part in the govt’s surprise change of rules to NHS fertility treatment access last year

Great piece. I lived next to Burgess Park for six years and the families who rocked up at 8am to set up epic, elaborate barbecues that smelled incredible and were populated by vast, extended families were a huge summer highlight

Oh god this has articulated so clearly my experience and that of so many journalists I know. Hat tip @floradrury for bringing it to my attention. Great interview
New York Times publisher AG Sulzbeger right on the money:
"The new model is you have to write three to five stories a day. And, if you have to write three to five stories a day, there is no time to get out into the world."

Fabulous article from the @guardian’s @alice_hutton on recent advances in underwater bioacoustics: theguardian.com/environment/…

This is very very sad. Gal-dem really did so much for the media landscape, they saw Black women, heard them, heralded them. They were one of my first profiles I had as an author! Definitely the first photoshoot I had for a magazine. It meant so much to me. Such a loss
We are incredibly sad to announce that gal-dem is closing.
Several factors that have contributed to this difficult decision, including numerous challenges with running a small, mission-driven, independent media company. We’ve shared more here gal-dem.com/gal-dem-goodbye-…
