35 years ago we recorded this song with none other than the incomparable Queen of Soul - Aretha Franklin.
According the Gates Foundation, the devastation of the Covid 19 pandemic could set back all the gains made on women’s rights over 25 years. We MUST support the empowerment of women and girls EVERYWHERE around the globe. This is why I am a Global Feminist!

To celebrate #InternationalWomensDay, I want you to join me in supporting some of the most inspiring #FemaleLeaders I know—the 1,700 women living with HIV that the NGO @mothers2mothers employs as frontline health workers across sub-Saharan Africa.
 
These Mentor Mothers have been at the forefront of the fight against not one, but two pandemics—HIV/AIDS and COVID-19—and have shown what it is like to lead by example, at a time when many vulnerable women, children, and families need it the most. They are amazing leaders who understand their clients’ needs because they are from the same communities and have walked in their shoes. They’ve overcome their own obstacles, fears, and limitations to become a beacon of hope in dark times.
 
The tremendous courage and dedication that they have shown this past year (and beyond!) to keep their peers safe and healthy is nothing short of incredible, and I am proud to be a mothers2mothers Patron. You too, can support @mothers2mothers and #FemaleLeadership by making a donation—click on the link in the @mothers2mothers bio

For this year’s International Women’s Day I’m thrilled to be launching a new campaign, #CirclesOfChange, with the global feminist organisation I founded @TheCircleNGO
COVID-19 has set back years of progress made in gender equality. There has never been a more important time to stand shoulder to shoulder with women everywhere. If you feel like getting involved and connected please join in! 
 
Tell us about the people who inspire you and take a pledge to stand in solidarity with women and girls around the world. 
It is very easy – simply pick a pledge card from The Circle website (or choose your own) - upload it to social media - tag the inspiring people in your life - nominate them to do the same and then take your pledge. Remember to follow and tag @thecirclengo. 
 
And on 8th March, join me and others for a very special #IWD2021 event. 
 
Find lots more information at www.thecircle.ngo (link in bio)

All is well! No side effects whatsoever! 
Thanks to all the amazing people who have made the Moderna Covid 19 vaccination possible! 
I’ll still follow all the guidelines - Wear a mask outside - socially distance and frequently hand wash.

I’ve been inoculated against diseases such as polio, typhoid, tetanus, diphtheria and smallpox ..throughout my life and I’m SO grateful to not to had to go through the ravages of preventable  disease. I consider this vaccine to be a privilege. 

I do NOT want to catch Corona 19 virus and end up in hospital on a ventilator, as so many hundreds of thousands of people have tragically departed.
Neither do I want to have to live with the effects of ‘Long Covid’ or ‘Post Covid’ as it’s termed in the US. 
Debilitating exhaustion, brain fog, chest pains, swollen joints etc..
