Red Shoes

#ZapatosRojos or #RedShoes is an art project realized by the Mexican artist #ElinaChauvet. It deals with a city route which consists in lots of pairs of red or red-painted shoes to commemorate the many cases of #ViolenceAgainstWomen in the whole world. In particular, her first work was realized in #CiudadJuarez, the border city between #Mexico and the #UnitedStates, where for the first time it was used the expression “ #femicide ”.

A leading women's rights campaigner has spoken to FRANCE 24 about how she was subjected to female genital mutilation at the age of just seven in her home country of The Gambia. Fatou Baldeh explained that although the procedure was a horrific personal experience, it was seen as the norm when she was growing up. But later, when studying in Scotland, she became more aware of what had happened to her. She has now returned to The Gambia and is the founder and CEO of Women in Liberation and Leadership. She talked to us on Perspective ahead of International Women's Day this coming weekend.#Africa #Perspective #Femalegenitalmutilation #TheGambia #womensrights #Violenceagainstwomen

#PeteHegseth’s MOTHER Accused Her Son of Mistreating #Women for Years

Penelope Hegseth made the accusation in an email to her son in 2018, amid his contentious divorce.

“On behalf of all the women (& I know it’s many) you have abused in some way, I say … get some help & take an honest look at yourself,” Penelope Hegseth wrote, stating that she still loved him.
