I'me new here, so here's a little intro about me :)
I'm a British-Iraqi public health doctor, academic & mum. I'm passionate about my work & social justice (which I consider to be the same thing). I love nature, flowers, smiling, and hope. I haven't changed in that respect since I was child (as you can see from the photo) but my biggest personality strength is growth so I do change my mind on other things.

It's severely lacking in critical mass, which is unsurprising given that I have been ranting about this shit daily for 2.5 years and no-one told me about it until this week.
Anyway, please spread the word so more of us can connect!
