  • Dear America: women’s bodies are not state property | Tayo Bero

    1 week ago | theguardian.com | Tayo Bero

    A Black pregnant woman who was declared brain dead back in February is still being kept alive on a ventilator, because of a Georgia law that prohibits abortions beyond six weeks. If this sounds like the stuff of speculative fiction, it’s because there’s literally a Handmaid’s Tale episode about this.

    2 weeks ago | theguardian.com | Tayo Bero

    There’s a new formula for punishing women who speak out about abuse by high-profile figures, and it usually goes like this: woman alleges abuse, woman seeks recourse through the justice system, woman’s accusation is made public – and then a tidal wave of fans of her abuser come together to help deny the abuse, attack her credibility and reverse the roles of victim and offender.

But now they’re claiming that the violence was mutual. In a statement to the judge, the defense attorney Marc Agnifilo said they plan to “take the position [that] there was mutual violence in their relationship”.

    3 weeks ago | theguardian.com | Tayo Bero

    While most good Catholics spent the early days of this week in solemn contemplation, praying that the church’s new leader would be a person of character and someone who could unite us in these tense, ungodly times, the rest of us were on X cackling at our screens and reposting chimney memes. Social media has been having a field day since Pope Francis passed and the race was on for a new pope.
