WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/stevenson-robert-louis/22790/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>Robert Louis Stevenson</b></a></p><blockquote>When the torrent sweeps the man against a boulder, you must expect him to scream, and you need not be surprised if the scream is sometimes a theory. Shelley, chafing at the Church of England, discovered the cure of all evils in universal atheism. Generous lads irritated at the injustices of society, see nothing for it but the abolishment of everything and Kingdom Come of anarchy. Shelley was a young fool; so are these cocksparrow revolutionaries. But it is better to be a fool than to be dead. It is better to emit a scream in the shape of a theory than to be entirely insensible to the jars and incongruities of life and take everything as it comes in a forlorn stupidity.</blockquote><p><b>Robert Louis Stevenson</b> (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet<br>Essay (1878-03), “Crabbed Age and Youth,” <i>Cornhill Magazine</i>, Vol. 37</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/stevenson-robert-louis/22790/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">wist.info/stevenson-robert-lou…</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=engagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>engagement</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=pain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pain</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=acceptance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>acceptance</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=docility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>docility</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=folly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>folly</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=injustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>injustice</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=outrage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>outrage</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=protest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>protest</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=reform" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reform</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=resignation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resignation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=scream" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scream</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=stupidity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stupidity</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=theory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>theory</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=thought" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thought</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=youth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>youth</span></a></p>

But they had a point; they not only befitted your age and expressed its attitude and passions, but they had a relation to what was outside of you, and implied criticisms on the existing state of things, which you need not allow to have been undeserved, because you now see that they were partial.</blockquote><p><b>Robert Louis Stevenson</b> (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet<br>Essay (1878-03), “Crabbed Age and Youth,” <i>Cornhill Magazine</i>, Vol. 37</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/stevenson-robert-louis/77626/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">wist.info/stevenson-robert-lou…</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=robertlouisstevenson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>robertlouisstevenson</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=adolescence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adolescence</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=age" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>age</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=beliefs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beliefs</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=changeofmind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>changeofmind</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=maturity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maturity</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=opinions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>opinions</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=youth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>youth</span></a></p>
Ned Hamson's Second Line View of the News<p><strong>The Caribbean climate justice agenda: activities and opportunities for youth, women, and more – Petchary’s Blog</strong></p><p>As the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) wraps up its <a href="https://jis.gov.jm/49th-caricom-conference-2025/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>big conference</strong></a> of Heads of Government in Montego Bay this week, it’s safe to say that the issue of climate change – or should I say, crisis – is very much up there at the top of the agenda. But how to get involved in finding the solutions?</p><p>Here are a few things happening. Firstly, please note in your diary that the Caribbean Youth Environment and Climate Change Conference will take place in Kingston from September 10 – 12, 2025. If you wish to attend in person, please RSVP by July 12. You will also be able to participate online. It’s open to all Caribbean Nationals. Limited spots available, so register today and contact them by email for further information. This is a partnership between the Caribbean Youth Climate Council and the Children and Youth Major Group to UNEP.</p><p>The theme is: <strong><em>“Securing our Planet for Current and Future Generations.”</em></strong></p><p>Scan the QR Code to register or fill out the registration form at <a href="https://forms.gle/JoYNWwU9zc3HTCD18" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://forms.gle/JoYNWwU9zc3HTCD18</a></p><p>Youth must always be included in all discussions on climate change!<a href="https://forms.gle/JoYNWwU9zc3HTCD18" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><br></a>GenzAction <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/oneclimate/" target="_blank">#OneClimate</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/onecaribbean/" target="_blank">#OneCaribbean</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/adaptation/" target="_blank">#Adaptation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/climateresilience/" target="_blank">#ClimateResilience</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/ocean/" target="_blank">#Ocean</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/humanrights/" target="_blank">#humanrights</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/plasticpollution/" target="_blank">#PlasticPollution</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/youth/" target="_blank">#youth</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/futuregeneration/" target="_blank">#futuregeneration</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/climatejustice/" target="_blank">#climatejustice</a></p><p>You might like to know about several other activities, highlighted by <strong><a href="https://climatetrackercaribbean.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Climate Tracker Caribbean</a>.</strong> – by the way, take a look at their website for some thought-provoking stories on climate justice…</p><p>Source: <a href="https://petchary.wordpress.com/2025/07/10/the-caribbean-climate-justice-agenda-activities-and-opportunities-for-youth-women-and-more/?_gl=1*1quqhrm*_gcl_au*MjE0MjMzNTE0MS4xNzQ2OTA0ODgwLjk2MjMxOTI4NS4xNzUyMDc4Mjg0LjE3NTIwNzg4NjQ." rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Caribbean climate justice agenda: activities and opportunities for youth, women, and more – Petchary’s Blog</a></p><p><span></span></p> <p><strong>Rate this:</strong></p> <p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/adaptation/" target="_blank">#Adaptation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/climatejustice/" target="_blank">#climatejustice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/climateresilience/" target="_blank">#ClimateResilience</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/futuregeneration/" target="_blank">#futuregeneration</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/humanrights/" target="_blank">#humanrights</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/ocean/" target="_blank">#Ocean</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/onecaribbean/" target="_blank">#OneCaribbean</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/oneclimate/" target="_blank">#OneClimate</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/plasticpollution/" target="_blank">#PlasticPollution</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://nedhamsonsecondlineviewofthenews.com/tag/youth/" target="_blank">#youth</a></p>

Aby--not fast, just furious<p>From the Sisters Inside Facebook page:</p><p>When ‘tougher’ checks hurt the wrong people</p><p>The women we work with through the National Network of Incarcerated and Formerly Incarcerated Women and Girls often face immense barriers to obtaining a WWCC, even when their charges have nothing to do with children. Many who apply have convictions that stem from surviving poverty, violence, homelessness or substance use. These are routinely read by the system not as evidence of structural harm or survival, but as fixed indicators of unsuitability.</p><p>Criminalised women — especially Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women — already face steep hurdles when applying for a clearance after prison. The law treats a decades-old shoplifting charge, a survival response to domestic violence, or even the state-sanctioned removal of one’s own child as permanent red flags. These often result in women being denied a clearance and being issued a prohibition or negative notice.</p><p>_____</p><p><a href="https://www.crikey.com.au/2025/07/08/joshua-brown-allegations-working-with-children-check-childcare-victoria/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwQ0xDSwLaomVleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHkteWPLtpBEDfBIEcaWqTvd0Y1l6ILXX0z6m_oMIQY2ZnSRejPWIjJdWrzvO_aem_OWun6Zv0rPgzJ0TVQhfYag#Echobox=1751957344" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">crikey.com.au/2025/07/08/joshu</span><span class="invisible">a-brown-allegations-working-with-children-check-childcare-victoria/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwQ0xDSwLaomVleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHkteWPLtpBEDfBIEcaWqTvd0Y1l6ILXX0z6m_oMIQY2ZnSRejPWIjJdWrzvO_aem_OWun6Zv0rPgzJ0TVQhfYag#Echobox=1751957344</span></a></p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/Aboriginal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Aboriginal</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Indigenous</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Decolonise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Decolonise</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/SovereigntyNeverCeded" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SovereigntyNeverCeded</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Treaty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Treaty</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/FuckRacism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckRacism</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/FuckWhiteness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckWhiteness</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/FuckColonisation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckColonisation</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AbolishPolice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbolishPolice</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AbolishPrisons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbolishPrisons</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Abolition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Abolition</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/CommunityNotCops" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CommunityNotCops</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/NoJusticeNoPeace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoJusticeNoPeace</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Youth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Youth</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Children" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Children</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Australia</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AusPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AusPol</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Criminology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Criminology</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/CriminalJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalJustice</span></a></p>

Was great to be part of this podcast with Shibaji Bose & Quest Alliance.
We discussed how climate uncertainties should not just drive anxiety but also be an opportunity for youth and others to reimagine more just and sustainable futures & push for climate action and justice from politicians and powerful players.
