If you're near #Stromness get along to @fionaorkneynews #BookWeek book launch exhibition at Northlight gallery.
With lovely straw dollies by Sue Knowles for sale, raising funds for ORSAS.
The #exhibition includes some #pencil #illustration by me, historic photographs, and other information about this industry which many working women in #Orkney depended upon until the #industrialrevolution killed it off.
Exhibition ends on St. Andrew's #FairSaturday

On #AfricanAmericanHistory If you truly integrate it into #AmericanHistory it changes the story. In the early days of #womensstudies we said you can't just add women & stir. Writing the history of African Americans means rewriting mainstream history. This is what #supremacists fear. Last night on @chrislhayes #TahnehisiCoates insisted the counter reaction signals fear. I found this reassuring that there is progress. But still, when people lash out in fear, they can do a lot of damage.
