| 462 | 2020-05-13 | People like me don’t miss the outside. Here’s why I miss being able to do what I want. I don’t miss the constant casual sexism, homophobia, or street harassment.

| 378 | 2020-03-27 | Why social distancing won’t work for us Keep a distance from each other. Work from home. Or rely on a social safety net. The measures against the coronavirus pandemic are made by and for those parts of the world that can afford to retreat in individualism. But for millions of people in cities like Lagos, Nigeria, there’s no such thing as socially distancing yourself. |

| 294 | 2020-02-14 | Forget romantic love. Let’s celebrate (and practise) a different kind of love instead You know the story: a dashing man meets a damsel in distress, and they live happily ever after in wedded bliss. But real love is so much more than a fantasy. Love is embracing curiosity and caring for ourselves. It’s working for the collective good and self-respect. And yes, when done properly, love can change the world. |

| 147 | 2019-12-02 | Borders don’t just keep people out. They define their worth Most borders are recent inventions, so why can’t we imagine a world without them? They’re historical hangovers that perpetuate suffering and injustice. And they’re not even that effective. It’s time to rethink the importance we give to arbitrary lines on a map. |

| 33 | 2019-09-30 | The stick figure on the door: unconscious ways we exclude each other Difference is innately human. Indignity and discrimination are not. We need to be able to recognise what makes a person distinctive, without losing sight of what we all share. |
