With the death of Pope Francis, the world loses not only a church leader but also a moral compass

IN THE last decade or so, there has been a resurgence of feminist writing and activism in Britain and beyond that has raised consciousness in both women and men.
Bestselling British young adult fiction author Holly Bourne, Nigerian-American writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Everyday Sexism’s Laura Bates have been three key figures in this important and necessary upsurge.
I think they have all done, and continue to do, brilliant work popularising feminism and feminist arguments for young people and those who don’t identify as feminists, which has helped to improve the lives of women across the world.
