IMPACT is a private NC state-certified batterer intervention program for men who acknowledge threats or acts of violence toward their partners and/or children.
Someone needs to write a book. These ARE the Kennedys of the South. Their lives; their history is woven into our history as much as the textiles they've produced for generations. The incredible life of Anne Springs Close https://t.co/pHW1CNStUG
Leslie Stahl’s interview isn’t a one-off atrocity. It’s just one symptom of the media turning a blind eye to fascism.
In just the last two weeks alone, the mainstream media have refused to recognize the threat posed by the Republican party and its de facto leader, Donald Trump.
First, they based an entire week of reporting and analysis on Donald’s social media post that falsely claimed he was going to be arrested on March 21.
Then, 60 Minutes made the confounding decision to give a platform to insurrectionist and fascist Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The Republican Party has fallen in line behind Donald and, now that indictments against him have been announced, they will stop at nothing to undermine the American people’s faith in the rule of law. Donald’s attacks on social media against NY DA Alvin Bragg have already resulted in an avalanche of death threats.
But just as they did in 2016, the media keep giving Donald millions of dollars worth of air time.
It’s time for the media to take sides—democracy or fascism.
It shouldn’t be that fucking hard.

No one at IMPACT is surprised. Mr. Johnson's abuse follows a typical pattern. We hope he does return to Charlotte, where he can enroll and complete 52 weeks in our program, but with felony charges in CA, where they take DV more seriously, he may have to serve time first.
I’ll bet this husband really wanted to kick some ass last week after the disrespectful comments and insults directed at his wife last week. Instead of reacting, he comforted his wife and assured her that everything is okay. #Oscars#ToxicMasculinity#WillSmith
In 2001, I was part of a Charlotte delegation that traveled to our Sister City of Voronezh on a domestic violence exchange. I remain close friends with wonderful women of this city of a million people. Their courage is inspiring, and I hope they will keep fighting Putin.

Please, please stop referring to abuse as "narcissistic abuse" and to abusers as "narcissists". Not all narcissists abuse. Not all abusers are narcissists. Abuse is abuse. Labels and trends don't help. Safety for victims does. Accountability for abusers does. #DomesticAbuse
