Today's photo: Vondelpark (1895).
[EN] Winter scene in the park. Neither the statue nor the woman with children are in the center of the photo, creating a neatly balanced composition.
[NL] Wintertafereel bij het Vondelmonument. Standbeeld noch vrouw met kinderen staan in het midden van de foto, die daardoor een keurig uitgebalanceerde compositie heeft.

Well that was an eventful day! Me (48X), my kiddo (21X) and my niece (18F) departed from Nijmegen at 8AM to drive to #Amsterdam for the #Pride Walk from Dam Square to #Vondelpark, the opening event of this year's #WorldPride. We parked the car at Zeeburg III P+R, took the tram 26 to the central station, and then walked from there to Dam Square.
At 11:00, the event started, with several fine speeches. By 11:45, standing in the hot sun, I started feeling unwell... I told my kiddo and niece that I'd go find a place to sit down for a moment. I was feeling weak, dizzy, tingling sensations in my arms... Someone called an event medic to me and they decided to get an ambulance on the scene just in case. Meanwhile, my condition was thankfully improving again. When the ambulance arrived, they decided to give me a check-up anyway. They hooked me up to the heart monitor and everything looked fine. In the end, it was probably a combination of the heat, the crowd, and the blood pressure meds that I had started on a few weeks ago resulting in a temporary drop in blood pressure with the resulting symptoms.
With that out of the way, we were even able to catch up to the Pride Walk and walk with them all the way into and through Vondelpark, until we got to the part of Vondelpark dubbed "Pride Park". When we got there, we saw several people carrying Palestinian flags being stopped by police. Since I wasn't with that specific anti-genocide bloc - I was just there with my queer family members - I tried to pass around that blockade, but the police blocked me from entering too. You see, on my collapsable flag pole, I didn't only have a #NonBinary pride flag, but also a #Palestine flag. So like the other people, now at least two dozen, who had Palestinian flags or were wearing a #keffiyeh, the police denied me entrance, and my child and niece as well.
This mass of people being blocked from entering caused others to be only able to pass through in single file, or sometimes not at all. Under chants of "Free Palestine", "Tout le monde déteste la police", "Let them through", "Amsterdam is saying no to genocide" and others, the police caused a lot of tension. At several occasions, people got shoved out of the way - not just by police, but also by people from behind, who wanted to get to the opening ceremony hosted by Queen Máxima of the Netherlands. My niece, who is recovering from a broken foot and is still somewhat unstable on her feet and using a cane for balance and support, was also shoved at least four times, once ending up fully on the ground.
Now it shoud also be known that my niece is no stranger to such altercations with the police because she's a member of XR and has joined several XR protests, but being in such a situation unprepared and while still recovering from an injury is something else... My kiddo is also familiar with French university protests, and I've endured my fair share of violent police action during antifascist protests, so none of us were noobs at this, but it was still a very stressful situation - at least I was not at risk of developing another low blood pressure incident!
Anyway, my clearly disabled niece was visibly shaken so I started pleading with the police to let us through so I could take care of her since she was in my charge. They refused, even though they saw clearly that my niece was in distress. However, they said, if I put the Palestinian flag away, we would be let through. I folded up my flags, collapsed the pole and put it all in my backpack... They still refused to let us through. The flag in the bag was now a no-go too. I would have to leave it here... So, I detached the Palestinian flag and handed it to a person wearing a keffiyeh behind me - I'd lose it, but it would at least go to someone who would put it to good use. Again, still, the police would not let us through, although I had acquiesced to all of their unreasonable demands.
Meanwhile, the police forcefully removed an elderly lady, who walked using two canes, who was carrying a Palestinian flag... All through that time there were several pushing and shoving incidents, both police shoving people with pro-Palestine items back, and visitors shoving them out of the way from the back so they could get through... People, where is your fucking #solidarity? Your queer siblings are being denied entrance because of the flag they carry or the clothes they wear... Do you not see how this should be your fight as well? None are free until we are all free!
We decided to call it and went a small distance back instead. After having recombobulated ourselves in the shade of the trees some 50 yards from the blockade, we gave it another attempt. The blockade was still ongoing. The police officers recognized us and still denied us entrance. But finally, after they had searched our bags to make sure I had no other Palestinian flags or keffiyehs in there, we were let through.
We ended up having a pretty good time in the Pride Park. We then also saw the rules of the Pride Park, which included: "No flags of any countries or organizations allowed." With evidence abound that this rule was being very selectively applied because there were many flags of various queer organizations present. And it's the World Pride - how can you ban national flags at such an event? Even then, by those posted rules, the Palestinian flag should be allowed, because the Netherlands doesn't recognise Palestine as a country, so by Dutch law, it's not a national flag. And a keffiyeh is also not a flag...
After making a round by all the stands in the park, we grabbed some very nice vegan sushi and then decided to go home. When we arrived at central station, it turned out that tram 26 had just run into an incident so there would be no trams going to P+R Zeeburg for, well, nobody knew how long... A bus service was being set up at that moment, but wasn't in place yet. Hundreds of people were already waiting so it would probably take at least an hour for us to even get going towards our car... We decided to take a cab instead. The cab driver was a really cool guy - he did charge us €60 for the trip though, geez, but at least we were back at our car and could commence our drive home.
So all in all a very eventful day in Amsterdam!

Denk dat het slim kan zijn om plaatsen/wijken te taggen bijv. #jordaan en #vondelpark. En daarnaast ook speciale dagen zoals #dodenherdenking #bevrijdingsdag en #koningsdag. Bij verkeershinder op snelwegen kan het A-nummer als hashtag worden opgenomen. Dat doet @RWSverkeersinfo ook. Zie bijv. #A2.

How I remember International Women’s Day
As almost always happens, I forgot it was IWD until lunch time. So here’s a slightly update version of a post I did a few years ago. Enjoy!
Janes Plane live at the Ace, Brixton, 1982. Pictured, l to r, Nicola Griffith, Carol Holmes, Jane Lawrence.Once upon a time—44 years ago, on March 8, 1982 to be exact, International Women’s Day—I and four other women debuted our band, Janes Plane. (I’ve written about that many times so won’t rehash it here but do feel free to go down the search rabbit hole). It was early March, too, eleven years later, when Ammonite, my first novel, debuted in the UK. (Which makes today Ammonite’s 33rd birthday!) And of course it was just ten days after that that I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. For me, IWD is a complicated anniversary.
But today, just because it pleases me to do so, I’ll focus on the music. Here are two Janes Plane songs. The first, “Vondel Park,” is about the summer I was 19 and me and Carol, my lover (that’s what we said back then, lover, not partner or girlfriend) went to Amsterdam, got stranded with no money, starved in a campground for about a week, then finally got some cash and spent it immediately on, first, a Big Mac and fries, and, second, a chunk of red lebanese hash, which we smoked in Vondel Park in the sunshine while hippies played their guitars. I spent four lovely hours hallucinating herds of wild horses running with a 50′-tall Bertie Bassett (a figure made of Liquorice Allsorts—a liquorice sweet/candy). Here’s the song, accompanied by a video created from various TV clips of the band edited together by Lou, our bassist.
https://www.youtube.com/embed/-b3e8b-ERZ4?si=0ihs-DCgdzNVzGlX
And here’s “Bare Hands.” I don’t know what the song meant to the rest of the band, but my lyrics are about Hull, a grimy, desperate city in East Yorkshire (so bad you could address a letter to ‘Crap Town’ and it would get there), where I moved after I left Leeds in early summer, 1979 (right before we went to Amsterdam). I lived there with Carol for ten years and always knew it could be a better place, if only people would believe enough to try. I left long before that happened—but it did. So, to me, this is a song about hope.
I think IWD, too, is all about hope. So turn up the sound and drift and dream…
