What do you say when someone makes it clear they think the violence, racism and Islamaphobia we’re seeing on our streets might be justified?
Such a great piece by my colleague Claire on why and how we need to have that courageous conversation

So a guy flies in to a bar...
Here's the story of what happened when some bloke popped out to his local for a quick pint.

And then someone who'd done our climate conversations training decided to say something.

Larger Us was born in East Jerusalem five years ago this month – and today, things are worse than ever.
Is there any hope for a larger us instead of the horrific them-and-us dynamics we’re witnessing in the Middle East?

And what can climate campaigners do about it?

What's the role of ‘opponents’ in the climate narrative? Should we be thinking in these terms at all?
Explore these q's at this Inter-Narratives event, with our colleague @noorafiraq & other speakers from @NEON_UK @CCRI_UK @LargerUsNetwork.

Our latest case study in larger us change-making is out!
We spoke to community organiser @TessHumble about Glasgow's Lament, a powerful ritual designed to bring communities most impacted by economic, social and climate crises together in grief
