A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde (1996) dir. by Ada Gay Griffin and Michelle Parkerson
Her name was Samiya and she was brutally stabbed in the neck and chest before she was taken to a New York hospital with her sister Sanyia (who had been stabbed in the arm), where she did not survive her injuries from her neck and chest. These sisters were just at a store, and this predator FOLLOWED them after he was rejected and attacked them. He waited for them -and he's still not caught. This is just absolutely horrifying.
Misogyny fuels violence against women -and this very clear epidemic is killing young girls and women.
I cannot imagine the degree of entitlement you think you have to anyone's time and bodies- that anyone could hold that much disdain for rejection, and is okay with exerting power, control, and violence upon another person because YOUR ego is bruised. Fuck toxic masculinity and dismantle the patriarchy until it burns to the ground because I'm so sick of seeing this.
I wish all the best to the family and loved ones of Samiya. This young teenager should still be here. And I hope the man who did this gets apprehended and faces endless misery and misfortune in his lifetime.
People talk a lot about creepy middle-aged men looking for younger girls to date, but I've seen a LOT of the same creepy attitudes toward high schoolers in men in their mid-to-late-20s.
You can read the letter here.
A Palestinian woman and her husband were arrested over her WhatsApp status that said and I quote
“May God grant them victory and protect them.”
The woman in question is a Palestinian woman with Israeli citizenship, her husband was arrested as well for “inciting terrorism” and they “investigated her involvement in the terrorist group.”
This absolutely is an invasion of freedom of speech, if you claim to be pro freedom of speech but yet don't say anything about this couple, you only care when freedom of speech applies to you.
This is an invasion of freedom of speech and fascism.

With ecofeminism, the political focus turns outwards. Its first premiss is that the ‘material’ resourcing of women and of nature are structurally interconnected in the capitalist patriarchal system.
