“We need lots of forms of activism, but I think if we can be gentle we should start there. If we have to be more aggressive as a last term option then, possibly. But where possible I think we can be gentle, and thoughtful and considered.” Sarah Corbett, Craftivist Collective (‘Somewhere To Believe In’ podcast, Episode 4)

We’ve spoken to a lot of great people about their expression of activism, from Sarah Corbett’s campaign gifting handmade embroidered hankies to power-holders in the fashion industry (asking for the living wage to be paid to a High Street retailer’s employees) to Mel Strickland, one of the Stansted 15 who chained themselves around a Boeing 767 to prevent the passengers from being deported.
