The writer and activist Gloria Steinem died Wednesday, at 92. With her writing, her community organizing, and her partnerships, Steinem remained at the forefront of the feminist movement for more than 60 years. In 2015, Jane Kramer profiled Steinem for The New Yorker. “I’m an entrepreneur of social change,” Steinem told Kramer. “I raise money. I talk. I write. I tell stories. I want to do justice to the women I meet.” Revisit the story: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/mp…

With the news of Dolly Parton, and now Tim Curry, fresh and present in my mind, something within me made me seek out this poem from the bookcase. Some actions never need to be explained, I guess; and it is in that spirit that I share... • Louis MacNeice •

Wow. That is double what was expected. Good for Belfast!

After 8 days, it all ended in the early hours of Monday with the champion Lissadell Céilí Band … and a final dance. 🎻🎼 #Fleadh

As Belfast's first Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann comes to a close on Sunday, it is thought it could end up being the biggest ever such festival on the island of Ireland in terms of visitor numbers. bbc.in/4ho7dIG

Many people have always had a complicated affection for Belfast. Its home, but it's divided. Its great craic, but it can be bleak too. This week people: young, old and middle aged are feeling pure, unfiltered joy and pride in this city. Quite an emotional thing to see.

Going to miss this Fleadh tomorrow. What a week. What a city. 💪

👏🏼Belfast has the moves as the Fleadh Cheoil na h’Éireann’s penultimate day continues. 🤩Our reporter Emily Brown caught performers, buskers and even the crowds showing off their best dancing skills. ❗️900,000 people visited the first five days of the Fleadh, passing the 800,000 figure estimated for the whole week. 🎻The eight-day festival comes to a close tomorrow.
