In Congo, women and little girls are being r*ped infront of their families. Nearly 10k cases of r*pe in just two months with children accounting for 35%-45% of those cases. Once again, in genocides waged by males, women and little children will always suffer the most.
It’s been 61 days since 42 students, young children full of dreams for the future, were abducted from their school in Askira-Uba, Borno state. The silence surrounding the situation they’re in and the progress made in rescuing them has been deafening. We want our children back!
Her name is Gina Martin. She was at a music festival in London when a man pushed his phone between her legs and took a photo under her skirt. She reported it to the police immediately. They told her it wasn't a criminal offence. There was nothing they could do.
She went home and decided that was unacceptable. With no legal background, no political connections and no funding she launched a campaign to make upskirting a criminal offence in England and Wales. She petitioned. She lobbied MPs. She spoke publicly about what had happened to her. The government initially blocked the bill.
She kept going. The Voyeurism Act passed in January 2019. Upskirting now carries up to two years in prison. Scotland followed. Other countries are following. A woman at a festival with no lawyer, no funding and no political connections rewrote the law for an entire nation in eighteen months.
I highly recommend that all adults (ESPECIALLY NIGERIAN ADULTS) read Ikigai. The importance of community can never be underestimated. Your life span could literally increase just because of the people around you.
“Nobody is coming to save you” but your day literally gets better after you consume art made by other people. You hang w friends & you’re no longer suicidal, even if just for a few minutes. They’re lying to you about the significance of community. People are saving you EVERYDAY!
