Lovely sunny afternoon ride out to Porty Prom and back with @EdCriticalMass - the clouds descended just as we reached the Meadows...
CM meets at 2pm, Middle Meadow Walk on the last Saturday of each month. You can usually catch a few InfraSisters there. We're starting to plot our next night ride during the #16DaysOfActivism

I’m a barrister & I know the law doesn’t protect women and girls – it needs to change. This is why I’m launching a new, radical organisation @Right2Equality@twitter.com in partnership with @GoodLawProject@twitter.com.
We WILL change the law for women & girls🧵

Hands talk: Duty of care continuum for survivors of domestic violence in Mongolia -- a photo essay
During the COVID-19 lockdowns, demand for emergency services, shelters, medical and psychological support escalated in Mongolia.
Although the hotline was open 24/7, many survivors couldn’t talk or request for help since their abusers were locked down with them.

The dangerous sexual practice on the rise.
The sexual assault charges against Sri Lankan cricketer Danushka Gunathilaka expose a phenomenon that has largely been invisible despite its ubiquity.
Gunathilaka allegedly strangled the victim to the point that she “feared for her life.”

How Women Holding Flowers Held Japanese Courts to Account
The Flower Demos brought aggrieved people out to discuss their experiences and protest the silence behind the societal treatment of women in Japan.
It created a community that acknowledged sexual violence as a social problem, in contrast to the common narrative, particularly in Japanese society, of the onus and blame being on individuals.

Ten years ago this month, a horrific gang rape and murder of a young woman, Jyoti Singh, in Delhi was a watershed moment which focused India's national conversation on an issue previously left in the shadows - violence against women.
One woman who found herself pulled into battles for justice against rape is the mother of Jyoti - Asha Devi.
