We use gender as a lens to understand power/privilege/violence/oppression, so as to better identify it, confront it, prevent it, and heal from it.🎙🎧 #FBR
If you're a protective mom, Ep. 138 with @cmmchiola will offer endless insight and tips on how to parent a coercively controlled child. Whether you're mired in family court proceedings or not, you will learn tangible ways of engaging with your child. https://t.co/mB9MD1eCKg
Understanding #coercivecontrol is paramount, not only in intimate relationships, but also how it shows up in the family court space. The control doesn't stop when the relationship ends. In fact it escalates.

It’s hard not to feel incensed when there are so many people posting about Sinead and how fearless she was, people who would never in a million years align themselves with with anybody who stood for something or had anything remotely controversial to say. It’s so spineless. If you can’t stand up for people in life don’t do it in death.
‘When a history of domestic violence remained unknown or became obscured, and women appeared reluctant to move on, a perception of them as hostile and obstructive was reinforced, and their real fears were left unacknowledged.’ (Harrison 2008). Little has changed in 15 years
“This documentary contains graphic descriptions of violence, sexual abuse & coercive control.”
That’s the warning viewers see when they first tune into “House of Hammer,” a new docuseries from Discovery+, which exposes the allegations against Armie Hammer

When someone is abusing you by forcing you to live under a regime of coercive control the abuse is constant, not episodic.
The abuser affects & harms your entire way of living.
Things that look like isolated conflicts are in fact all part of the overarching coercive control.
If you have daughters you must spend all resources establishing #Women’s constitutional equality by getting #ERA in the Constitution Now! Biden is blocking it same way Trump did. Call him out or shut up bc you obviously do not care about your daughters living in a democracy.

Failure-to-protect laws are incarcerating women all over the country—for other people’s [usually men’s] violence. @nfvlcgwu https://t.co/2LSbsL1i75
Same Merrick Garland who, under Biden’s direction, is blatantly violating federal law by blocking #ERA & denying #Women constitutional equality-which enabled the Supreme Court to overturn Roe. Partisan nonsense about Trump is NOT more important than Women’s basic human rights.
We are so excited to announce our keynote speaker Laura Richards @laurarichards99@thecrimeanalyst. A world-leading authority on coercive control, a powerful advocate for victims of violence, and an architect of crucial law reform and culture change. October 13, 12 noon EST.
#AnneHeche is the product of patriarchal oppression. Father sexually abused her as a way to hide his homosexuality since she was young. Decades of trauma and societal complicity or indifference also played a role. #sexualabuse#childsexualabuse#healingandrecovery#trauma
Anne Heche survived an incredibly abusive childhood; physical + sexual abuse at the hands of her father. Yet she spent years being the butt of jokes as she openly struggled with her mental health. People were so very cruel to her. Hope she finds peace 🙏🏻 #AnneHeche
We have a plan to advance the #ERA in the 117th Congress. But we need your support to make it happen.

It’s no shock that we have another shooting by a #MAGAt since the root of our issues is entitled masculinity to have power over via #coercivecontrol#doemsticabuse#massshootings#abortion restrictions and anything that impedes the autonomy and free choice of all citizens.
Today is July 3. @joebiden has been blocking #ERA & denying #Women constitutional equality for 530 days. 2650 Women were killed by men during that time. All the dead Women didn’t have Equal Protection against domestic abuse BECAUSE Biden was blocking ERA. https://t.co/CqTpOnG3uN
The phrase “Independence Day” sounds about right for #Women who have since 1868 endured their second class citizenship independent of the Constitution. #July4th
Supreme Court gave men MORE constitutional gun rights & then took away #Women’s constitutional autonomy rights. As if they needed to remind us that male supremacy was baked into the Constitution in 14th Am & Women remain unequal today bc @joebiden is blocking #ERA just like Trump
