Police from Buru have raided our SAFEHOUSE for victims of #SGBV in Kiambu & arrested our housemom. They have summoned ME to appear before Buruburu Police because I spoke on phone with a lady that was in distress.

As we mark #16DaysofActivism2020 remember that inequality comes from structures that were not meant to work for women. Under the patriarchy men have rights, women have duties and their bodies, dressing & decisions are surveilled; it’s these structures that we must dismantle.

Kindly look at these screens of grown men bold discussing sex with underage girls. Send your cybercrime unit to investigate.

It’s very urgent for African feminists to continue building resistance and solidarity across borders, learn from each other, document our work and share resources and skills. No matter what let’s keep organising and never allow feminist movements on the continent to shrink.

Your Vaginas Health:

What is toxic shock syndrome?

Toxic shock syndrome is a rare but serious medical condition caused by a bacterial infection.

It is caused when the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus gets into the bloodstream and produces toxins.

[Go Girl Initiative @InitiativeGo]

It has been linked to super-absorbent tampon use in menstruating women.

It is treatable by a medical professional.

It requires a medical diagnosis.

Lab tests or imaging are always required.
