J’ai eu l’honneur d’échanger avec la brillante @AnnetteF24. J’ai expliqué que le contrôle coercitif est au cœur de la violence contre les femmes et les enfants, la nécessité de sa traduction transversale en droit pénal & civil, et de penser à long terme la réponse à ces violences
The #French #parliament is currently debating a new bill aimed at tackling #violence against #women and #children. But does it go far enough? Annette Young asks @aernstvi, a social psychologist who assisted with the drafting of the legislation. More here: f24.my/6GOo

This story just keeps getting bigger. And kudos to the student journalists at @cornellsun for doggedly following this appalling failure by authorities alike to investigate this case properly.
My estimation is that when these students would have been in primary school or younger when the @_51percent first to air in 2013.
And here we are, nearly 13 years on, continuing to confront horrific cases of #sexualviolence against #women.
How allegations of a gang-rape at an American Ivy League university have set social media alight, sparking widespread fury over the way colleges and universities handle sexual assault cases. #TheCornellSeven More here: f24.my/6GOo

🔎 🧑⚖️ In November 2024, when a 20-year-old Ivy League student told campus police she had been raped by seven men for hours at their fraternity house; none of the men were arrested.
Now nearly two years on, she is suing her alleged attackers along with their fraternity, and #CornellUniversity, over their failure to protect her.
The accusations are sending shockwaves across social media — and raising, once again, questions about rape culture on college campuses, and male impunity.

This was a meaningful conversation because this topic truly matters to me.
I will continue speaking about the situation of women and girls in Afghanistan until things change for the better and Afghanistan becomes a safer, more equal place for all .1/2
