2021 has met us with advances in technology and mountains of platforms we may use to speak--yet still, for women and people with uteruses, progress has stalled or even reverted. Most urgently, in Afghanistan, women are fearing for their lives and rights as they are stripped away under the Taliban. Globally, women are viewed and often treated as cattle, best used for breeding and nurturing children and then, having fulfilled that purpose, being led to societal pasture. 

If you haven't guessed, we're angry--and we're guessing many of you are, too. This week, join us as we chat about some pertinent women's issues while pushing against the idea that this is somehow liberation.

  • Protect Afghan Women Campaign
  • Women For Afghan Women
