This is happening tomorrow afternoon (3:45pm). I'll be talking about ways we've given poetry a higher profile in my school and @joshuaseigal.bsky.social will be sharing his life as a children's poet, as well as performing some of his work. Grab a cup of coffee and join us!

Congratulations to 2025 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Marรญa Corina Machado!

In 2024, the European Parliament awarded the leader of Venezuela's democratic forces its Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought, which is the EUโ€™s highest award for those defending human rights and fundamental freedoms.
