We tried not to open this month’s digital issue with yet another reference to the pandemic but really, who are we kidding? Pandemic related restrictions continue to wreak havoc on our travel and social plans—any kind of plan to be honest. We still can’t move as freely as we once could, and all this stagnation got us thinking about movement or lack of it.
So for this month’s digital issue, we will be looking at movement; how we move in our bodies, how we go through emotional shifts, how for some people this lack of movement is nothing new and how for others it isn’t safe to stay still. We delve into the myth of class mobility and spend time with families in a traveller community.
