“Wo Maame Twɛ”: A Linguistic Mirror of Patriarchy in Ghanaian Society—A Critical Discourse Analysis of Gendered Insults and the Construction of Female Bodies in Akan Popular Culture
Everyone keeps talking about “giving grace to your parents” but you hardly hear them say give grace to your children. It’s embedded in our culture and religion. That is why we have so many parents repeating the cycle because they know the society will always back them up.
Exactly why you can’t separate “Netanyahu’s government” from Israeli society as a whole. This is a deeply racist and radicalized population of people who are driven by never ending bloodlust, and we have to be honest about the fact that they are completely irredeemable.
I lost it when the grandma from Encanto was forgiven like nothing happened after having created generational trauma for every single one of his children and grandchildren and DISOWNING HER SON for being different just to then hug him like he hadn't been living ISOLATED AND LIKE A RAT HIS WHOLE LIFE because of her.
No, everything is not magically okay with a hug. BAD thing to teach kids.
