BLACK FEMICIDE AWARENESS
From the Columbia University Mailman School of Pubilc Health; Black women in the U.S. were, on average, six times more likely to be murdered than their white peers for the years 1999 through 2020, according to an analysis of racial disparities in U.S. homicide rates by researchers at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Columbia Mailman School of Public Health. The study indicates that Black women are more likely than white women to be killed by guns.
In 2020, around 1, 821 black women and girls had their lives taken away from them. Studies show it's mostly done by someone they know such as family members and partners.
Firearms are the main weapon used on the victims. From Connecticut Children's: Firearm violence has driven the homicide rates even further, with three-quarters of homicide victims dying of gunshot wounds. Awareness of this public health crisis has remained low among feminist movements, news media, law enforcement, and community-based organizations.
Intimate Partner Violence Among Young Black Girls and Women: The leading cause for pregnant black women is murder...by their partners. Pregnant Black women are 11 times more likely to be victims of femicide, according to an article published in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology. Pregnant-associated femicide refers to homicides of women during pregnancy or within one year of pregnancy.

Now let be the first to say that this isn't about every man, but even if you want to become a SAHM please get some type of secondary education and make sure your partner purchases life insurance as well!

Reposted from @lynneedenise Final stop in the US will be soulful as hell. Having a conversation about this book across the street from where James Baldwin and Sammy Davis Jr. were born (Harlem Hospital ) is no small thing, but to be in conversation with two of the greatest musical, literary, theatrical, and cinematic minds in my generation @tamar_kali and @saulwilliams is beyond exciting…
Pairing them to discuss this book promises an evening of border crossing references, fresh ideas, and improvisational jazz like exchanges on the life of Willie Mae Thornton. This is what this woman deserves, critical attention on her legacy.
Register at @schomburglive and @schomburgcenter Schomburg for free tickets (registration closing soon)…meet us at 6:30pm tomorrow, October 3! Soon come.
