Anyone who has not yet watched #HopeNotHate documentary on Channel 4 last night really should get it on catchup. It’s a two hour exposé and covers so many links across the world.
You should consider the rhetoric from so many of our current and recent politicians while you watch. It really is quite chilling.

This week's #NewBooks at the library:
- Hen's Teeth and Horse's Toes: Further Reflections In Natural History from W.W. Norton & Co., another second-hand addition to my growing collection of #StephenJayGould's essays.
- A deeply discounted copy of The Trouble with #AncientDNA: Telling Stories of the Past with Genomic Science by Anna Källén from the University of Chicago Press.
- And because I'm a fan of moody street photography, a deeply discounted copy of Unfamiliar Underground: Finding the Calm in the Chaos of London's Tube Stations by Victoria Louise Howard from The History Press.

🏛️🧬 Researchers found that the Durotriges tribe of ancient #Dorset practiced a social system called matrilocality.
Their analysis of 50 ancient genomes shows that women stayed within their home communities while men moved to join their wives' families. The discovery supports historical accounts of powerful British queens and implies that land and status were inherited through maternal lines.
