german vogue putting the real person of the year on the cover - gisèle pelicot

[Zoe Gardner @ZoeJardiniere]

Literally crying hearing how French women applaud Gisele Pelicot every day as she walks out of court. #r4today

Everywhere around the world women watch & applaud her bravery too. She stood up for all of us.

Because the shame has to switch sides.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

“As the verdicts were read out, Gisèle Pelicot leaned forward to see the faces of the men.”

4️⃣ EDUCATION CAN SAVE LIVES
Women need better access to self-defense education specific to Canada. Survivors also need public support - not victim blaming - when they speak out, even if it takes years to share their story🫂

[CASSANDRA @cassandragiugno]

what I've learned from #16DaysOfActivism 💜🗣️

1️⃣ NST SURVIVORS DESERVE VISIBILITY!
Non-State T0rture (NST) is not specifically recognized as a crime in Canada. Without criminal data, NST survivors are erased from statistics, leaving their victimization invisibilized🫥

[CASSANDRA @cassandragiugno]

3️⃣ WE NEED BETTER TREATMENTS
Current therapies like EMDR don't always work for NST survivors. T0rture impacts the brain differently than abuse & we need more research to develop effective treatments tailored to their needs🧠

3 months later finally Anita sent us an apology.

Accepted. Let’s move on.

[Michelle Leahy Ferreri @mferreriptbokaw]

Anita Vandenbeld has been removed from Status of Women Committee effective today.

Her disgusting behaviour in July where she silenced survivors of IPV deserves serious consequences.

Her removal is a victory for survivors who ,to date, have never received an apology for her actions.

[Cait Alexander @caitaofficial]

In response to Anita Vandenbeld. #canada #fewo #policy #justice

[Dr. Jill Andrew, PhD (she/her) @JILLSLASTWORD]

I will continue to demand that this government release funding to support survivors and prevent further tragedy. We need real investment in affordable housing, including supportive and transitional housing, and shelter beds, health care and mental health supports and more.

[Cait Alexander @caitaofficial]

It honestly drives me crazy when people ask me: “but it made you stronger right?” No, healing made me stronger. Recovering made me stronger. Taking the higher road made me stronger.

Trauma nearly cost me my life, love made me stronger. #love

[Canadian Femicide Observatory 🇨🇦 @CAN_Femicide]

At least someone is listening.

Thank you @OFOVC!

Yes, #CallItFemicide

Victims' ombudsperson wants 'femicide' made a stand-alone Criminal Code offence
