Economic impact of the creative industries is the focus of today's collective action for #CultureMakes. At the heart of the work we do at Proteus is the ongoing support of artists, giving them the ability to create new work & sustain a career in the arts #creativeindustries

This is what 'intelligence-led' policing & 'not making a martyr of anyone' looks like
This is what letting tech companies fill people's eyes with bigotry & hate looks like
It's what letting the same men organise hate for years without consequence looks like.
We deserve better

We've lost more than a person.
Sinéad O'Connor's art, what she stood for, and how she stood for it, changed so much for so many people.
I'm devastated by her loss, and holding on to her lessons.

why is everyone saying sinead "battled her own demons?"
she was one of very few brave enough to battle real demons: child predators, those who protected them in God's name, homophobia, greed that kills.....
she battled demons, yes- but they were us, not her.

My timeline is Palestine, socialist, feminist, pro trans, anti racist, eco socialist, Marxist, anti colonialism, anti borders, pro refugees, housing, health activism and I've never seen an evening where *everyone* is tweeting about one person -Sinéad O’Connor. She was a giant 💔
OONAGH retweeted
She was also An Actual Victim of Cancel Culture, not whichever loads of grifters claiming that about themselves. The whole world bullied her, for using her platform to highlight atrocities. – at South Dublin, Ireland

Sinead deserved so much better than she got. And we all know it. And I think we're all grieving for that too. – at South Dublin, Ireland

Early 90s - when the theocracy began to crack and as young Irish women we stood together #SineadOConnor
OONAGH retweeted
Struggling to write something succinct re the loss of Sinéad O’Connor… A trailblazer. Irish women in particular see something in her, her willingness to push back against infallible structures… we know how brave it is to do that & we saw the price she paid
OONAGH retweeted
Every Irish queer, woman and outcast is surely feeling Sinéad’s passing tonight.
Back in 2017 when I worked for TENI we got a call from her management asking could she donate her closet to us to as she was downsizing and wanted the clothes to go to trans folk in need.
An icon.

I dunno, as a kid who got beaten up in school for being queer I'd have been pretty destroyed if I got home and those worst moments in my life were being shared all over social media afterwards
