In early 2009, Emily James began filming the clandestine activities of several environmental direct action groups across the UK. Allowed unprecedented access, Emily documented a year of escalating action that began in spring with the now infamous G20 demonstrations in London. Always in the thick of it and with ever her trusty camera to hand she saddled up with The Climate Rush “Bike Rush” as they brought Westminster to a standstill, pitched up with The Climate Camp as they occupied Blackheath, masked up with The Great Climate Swoop as they stormed the fences at Ratcliffe-on-Soar coal power station, and then accompanied them all to wintry Copenhagen as they took their protest to the streets outside the UN COP 15 climate talks. And those are just the headlines!

Lucía Sánchez Saornil, a Spanish anarcha-feminist. She was one of the founders of Mujeres Libres (Free Women), an anarchist organization that fought for equal rights for women in 1930s Spain. She was also a prominent poet and wrote often under a male pseudonym which gave her the freedom to explore taboo themes like homosexuality, which was illegal at the time. Being both an anarchist and a lesbian, she was forced to spend her later years more or less in hiding and had to relocate every few years until her death in 1970.
