The establishment wanted to use George Floyd case & the conviction of Chauvin as evidence that the system can work, offering Chauvin up as the sacrificial lamb to preserve the policing system. But public awareness & the national conversation has moved beyond them to demand more.
"#COVID19 is causing disruptions along agricultural supply chains and that doesn’t seem like a really serious thing until you realize it means farmers haven't put their seeds in the ground on time. They’re missing their growing season." — Corey O'Hara, Country Director iDE Nepal

Great presentations on gender research by @iDEorg @UTSISF #uncwaterandhealth#wash#sanitation Key insight on differentiating between gender strategic and gender practical. Strategic are things that might support changing gender roles like norms around bathroom cleaning.
Great presentation by @ProfSeraYoung on new household water insecurity measurement tool. Excited to use @HWISE_RCN for our work at @iDEorg! Thanks for #uncwaterhealth for the learning opportunity

Households that purchase latrines from female sales agents tend to use their latrines more than those that purchased from male sales agents. Women can be more effective than men in WASH development! Great finding, @iDEorg! @coloradowash#COWASH2019
iDE Research and Evaluation Specialist @RachelKRose sharing research from #sanitation in #Nepal. Found that female sales agents were more effective in reaching “marginalized” households and encouraging use by elders, critically ill, married women, and children.
This is why so many of us cried that night in November. Because they won. The people who perpetrate these unspeakable horrors at parties, on boats, in the back of cars, at church, in locker rooms, won.
And you laughed.
The laughter.
You've got friends & loved ones going through it today.
Be there for them.
Shore up your support and love.
Earn those titles today, friends and loved ones.
❤️❤️❤️
Dear women if any man is threatening you with legal action because you called him out for sexual assault, please reach out to me. I have a team of AWESOME (and badly behaved) female attorneys ready to defend you for free.
Nonsense!
The breakdown in civility and our politics occurred when a sitting President couldn't even get a hearing on a Supreme Court nominee for 8 months. Not when someone couldn't eat at Red Hen.
