EDITORIAL
This page is meant to support a number of colleage journalists worldwide whose work since Covid 19 has not become easier.
That is why I choose to add a supporting editorial page with links to their articles published in a diversity of international (online) newspapers and magazines and more than worth your time and reading. I introduce each article with its header and headlines. also the page this editorial is new for me so I just published all I could including links about the International Womens Day 2021 and soon there will be an update of that day and I already decided that the next topic will be Global Warming which will be published June 15 2021.

Ps. When I quote I use < =open and > =close because the wizkid I worked with cannot help me out here anymore. I apologize for the inconvenience.
