This is the address of our little place.
Our Furniture may be old fashioned,
But we have plenty of books to read.
We are in need of nothing.
We are happy that we are alive and learning to be, not to possess.

We Live Together, or We Die Together


If you’re in London, see you at 8 pm outside the British Museum.
We’re forming a human shiield, in solidarity with the peaceful, self-organising, happily co-existing people of Egypt. Like the majority of people of Egypt, we wish to be peaceful, calm, understanding and welcoming of other opinions. We wish to protect culture because it’s what links us to the past and the future. It’s our humanity’s memory.
We’re inspired by Mohamed El-Sawy’s idea – and statement, above – which led to secularists, Muslims, Christians and people who haven’t made their mind up about God, defending a Coptic Church from attack over the New Year.
We believe the statement to be true of the relationships between all people.
Inshallah.
