Calling on all men to act now to drive action on gender equality, world leaders gather to accelerate progress at UN Women’s HeForShe Summit:

Against a global backdrop of receding rights for women and girls, as well as collective crises like climate change, conflict, and natural disasters, the HeForShe Summit gathered political, business, global development and social justice leaders to review progress on gender equality across countries, companies and communities. While UN Women recently reported that, at the current rate of progress, it may take close to 300 years to achieve full gender equality, the HeForShe Summit urged men to do their part in accelerating equality in whatever capacity they can.

"With the engaged allyship of men and boys, we are powerfully united in addressing inequality," said Sima Bahous, UN Under-Secretary-General & Executive Director, UN Women. "I see this strength in all the leaders at the HeForShe Summit, who are acting as inspiring agents of change in their fields."

At the Summit, HeForShe Alliance members shared best practices in advancing gender equality through targeted and ambitious commitments in areas such as equal representation in the workplace, economic empowerment, or global policies addressing domestic violence. World leaders gathered to speak on the importance of achieving equality, including Ms. Olena Zelenska, First Lady of Ukraine, who said "I would like to live in a world where there are no differences between people. I would like to live in a world where the HeForShe initiative is not necessary."

UN Women and HeForShe also announced new members of the HeForShe Alliance and their ambitious commitments to accelerate progress towards gender equality. H.E. Mr. Fumio Kishida, Prime Minister of Japan, and H.E. Mr. Felix Tshisekedi, President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, committed their governments to enabling gender equal policies. Bolstering HeForShe partnerships in East Asia, Recruit Holdings was announced as the latest HeForShe Champion with a focus on achieving parity in their global organization by 2025.

Leaders from public, private and academic sectors discussed the issues facing women today during the event. Anita Bhatia, UN Women Deputy Executive Director, led a discussion on the compounding effects of crisis on gender with leaders from MTN Group, PwC, and the Centre for Rights Education and Awareness. The second discussion, led by Sanda Ojiambo, Assistant Secretary-General and CEO of the United Nations Global Compact with executive leadership from UN Women, INSEAD, and HCL Technologies, reinforced the substantial difficulties women face in advancing economically and highlighted key actions to reduce these barriers, particularly as today around 2.4 billion women of working age are not afforded equal economic opportunity. One such recommendation is to ensure sponsorship, not just mentorship, throughout a woman's academic and professional experience.

Closing the event, author and activist Frederick Joseph called on men and boys around the world to embrace the role they play in recognizing gender equality through everyday actions. Actress, activist, and singer Sofia Carson closed the Summit with an inspirational musical performance and took a moment to reiterate the unanimous call that brought these leaders together—men must have an active role in achieving a more equal world.

Today we celebrate the proud heritage, rich cultures and notable contributions of Indigenous peoples in Canada.

In recognition of #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay, Wolastoqey, Mi’gmaq and Peskotomuhkati flags were flown at the legislative assembly in Fredericton.

This year’s theme is Allyship and we join First Nations in New Brunswick in vowing to create greater equality and building relationships built on trust.

Aujourd’hui, nous célébrons le fier héritage, les riches cultures et la contribution notable des peuples autochtones du Canada.

En reconnaissance de la #Journéenationaledespeuplesautochtones, les drapeaux wolastoqey, mi’gmaq et peskotomuhkati ont été hissés à l’Assemblée législative à Fredericton.

Le thème de cette année est Alliance, et de concert avec les Premières Nations du Nouveau-Brunswick, nous nous engageons à créer une plus grande égalité et à bâtir des relations fondées sur la confiance.

Donald Trump quips... "I Am Grail And I Will Destroy All Free Will… And turn this planet into my own toxic neo-christian gun-loving covfefe Apokolips"

Jesus replies "I am the Holy one so fvvk you Grail - you are just a Chalice with Malice."

Trump retorts "But I am the highest level of special! Nothing can be bwetter than me from the standpoint of water."

Jesus chuckles "Sorry Donald but I am Groot, I have a root, and you are merely a duck without a fvvk to give, so I win".

Trump thinks about saying something back, but walks out in a huff like he does in ever meeting or interview where he doesn't like the line of questioning.

World pride ? Online dating epic reminder of Aldi special buys?

Are you part of the LGBTIQABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ community ?

The world has gone woke.

The Project is a perfect example of thunbergism aka peak woke performative allyship activism for FOMO gen-z types. And a front for the Australian Trump Republican party aka the LNP. Remember Greta thunberg is now an endorsed promoter of the WEF's agenda's.

Allyship signs, like “Be An Ally” and “White Privilege Exists,” have become standard at Trump-era protests. As the larger crowd started marching, even the person with the “Enact Bail Reform” sign was smiling.

Millions of British women are victims of online abuse according to shocking new study released today.

New research reveals half (49%) of women gamers in Britain have experienced a level of abuse or harassment when playing or streaming online, rising to 75% amongst those aged 18-24.

The findings delve into the differing experiences faced by both men and women gamers when playing video games on the internet, with over a half (52%) of women admitting they feel worried about playing computer games online, over concerns for their mental health.

The survey of 4,000 gamers, commissioned by Sky Broadband, revealed that over a third (35%) of women said they have received violent messages in the past, with 80% stating they’re often sexual in nature.

Of the women surveyed, half (50%) have felt uncomfortable while live streaming due to hate received by other players. Just under a third (31%) of women players have also lied about their gender and remained anonymous during online gameplay.

Over a third (40%) of women have felt personally threatened by the abuse they’ve experienced online, with 27% worried about being attacked in real life following threats made on gaming platforms.

The levels of harassment are so strong that 25% of women surveyed admitted to feeling depressed with 11% left feeling suicidal. Despite this, 25% wouldn’t tell anyone about negative comments they’re receiving.

The new research comes as Sky Broadband created a new immersive experience in partnership with Guild Esports at the Sky Guild Gaming Centre in Shoreditch that shines a light on the abuse experienced by women gamers in the UK.

The high-level gaming simulator begins as a neutral experience then changes to highlight the terrifying level of harassment that women gamers face daily.

Video content from the experience shows the real-time reactions of male players as they’re slowly given increasingly aggressive messages while they try to game.

Messages such as “Stop playing a man’s game little girl” and “Someone kill this wh*re” can be heard throughout the room, just a snippet of what so many women receive daily.

To launch the findings and the experience, Sky Broadband has partnered with a host of female gamers and gaming experts to feature in a series of striking images that depict some of the abuse they face whilst playing online.

Stephanie Ijoma, Sunpi, Elz the Witch and Danielle Udogaranya, all regular gamers and content creators, appear in front of a backdrop covered with writing that illustrate true-to-life abusive and violent messages that are heard by women in gaming daily.

The four also participate in video content discussing what needs to be done about the rising issue of women’s abuse, and give their thoughts on men’s’ reactions to Sky Broadband’s immersive simulation.

Stephanie Ijoma, Consultant, Gaming Entrepreneur and founder at NNESAGA said: “As women the abuse we receive on a daily basis is simply unacceptable which is why campaigns like this are so important to challenge the gaming community to become part of the change. It’s crucial that we work together in making the online gaming world safer for women as there is absolutely no room for abuse.”

Sky Broadband has also partnered Cybersmile to create a series of interactive educational modules to raise awareness of sexist abuse in gaming, promoting personal safety and empowering gamers to be better informed. The modules cover how to recognise abuse, how to report abusive behaviour and how to become an ally.

Speaking about the campaign, Youtuber and presenter Elz the Witch, said: “I’m proud to be part of this campaign which is shining a light on the real challenges women that play or stream games online face – which is often worse for women from racially diverse backgrounds. It’s hugely important that we not only raise awareness but encourage real action – there must be allyship for change to happen.”

Over half (51%) of males reported they have witnessed female streamers being harassed on live streams and 66% of men and women agree that women are more likely to experience negative comments while gaming.

When it comes to defending the victim, 71% of all respondents stated that they have stepped in to stop any abuse that they have witnessed.

Speaking about the research, Amber Pine, Managing Director, Broadband and Connectivity, Sky Broadband, said: “The results of this research are shocking and should alarm the gaming community. It is completely unacceptable for this type of sexist abuse to be so prevalent. We are determined to improve the experience for women in gaming. We’re calling on players to become allies, and stand with us to make clear there is no room for abuse in gaming."

It’s crucial that we work together in making the online gaming world safer for women as there is absolutely no room for abuse.”

Sky Broadband has also partnered Cybersmile to create a series of interactive educational modules to raise awareness of sexist abuse in gaming, promoting personal safety and empowering gamers to be better informed. The modules cover how to recognise abuse, how to report abusive behaviour and how to become an ally.

Speaking about the campaign, Youtuber and presenter Elz the Witch, said: “I’m proud to be part of this campaign which is shining a light on the real challenges women that play or stream games online face – which is often worse for women from racially diverse backgrounds. It’s hugely important that we not only raise awareness but encourage real action – there must be allyship for change to happen.”

Over half (51%) of males reported they have witnessed female streamers being harassed on live streams and 66% of men and women agree that women are more likely to experience negative comments while gaming.

When it comes to defending the victim, 71% of all respondents stated that they have stepped in to stop any abuse that they have witnessed.

Speaking about the research, Amber Pine, Managing Director, Broadband and Connectivity, Sky Broadband, said: “The results of this research are shocking and should alarm the gaming community. It is completely unacceptable for this type of sexist abuse to be so prevalent. We are determined to improve the experience for women in gaming. We’re calling on players to become allies, and stand with us to make clear there is no room for abuse in gaming."

How are artists, writers, and activists mobilizing and participating in the struggle for human rights and gender justice around the world? What are the regional and global ramifications of this feminist revolution? How have the words “Women, Life, Freedom” helped define a movement and inspire action and allyship? To answer these questions, and discuss the very real risks artists take when addressing them in their work, writer, filmmaker, and human rights activist Amir Soltani will moderate a conversation with Afghani women’s rights activist Crystal Bayat, award-winning visual artist Tala Madani, Iranian poet-in-exile Nesar Mohammadi, and multimedia artist and member of the Art/Culture/Action collective Nazanin Noroozi. The program will be co-presented by The Skirball Cultural Center, and will be followed by a reception. The Cultural Partner for this program is The Farhang Foundation.

Farhang Foundation is a member-supported nonreligious, nonpolitical and nonprofit foundation established in 2008 to celebrate and promote Iranian art and culture for the benefit of the community-at-large. The foundation supports a broad range of academic and cultural activities by funding academic programs, diverse cultural programs such as the celebrations of Nowruz, as well as musical performances, art exhibitions, film screenings and festivals.

This event was co-presented with The Skirball, and presented in collaboration with the Artists at Risk Connection (ARC) and made possible thanks to the generous support of the Andy Warhol Foundation for Visual Arts.

The Cultural Partner for this program was The Farhang Foundation.

New York - 21 September 2022

Calling on all men to act now to drive action on gender equality, world leaders gather to accelerate progress at UN Women’s HeForShe Summit:

Against a global backdrop of receding rights for women and girls, as well as collective crises like climate change, conflict, and natural disasters, the HeForShe Summit gathered political, business, global development and social justice leaders to review progress on gender equality across countries, companies and communities. While UN Women recently reported that, at the current rate of progress, it may take close to 300 years to achieve full gender equality, the HeForShe Summit urged men to do their part in accelerating equality in whatever capacity they can.

"With the engaged allyship of men and boys, we are powerfully united in addressing inequality," said Sima Bahous, UN Under-Secretary-General & Executive Director, UN Women. "I see this strength in all the leaders at the HeForShe Summit, who are acting as inspiring agents of change in their fields."

At the Summit, HeForShe Alliance members shared best practices in advancing gender equality through targeted and ambitious commitments in areas such as equal representation in the workplace, economic empowerment, or global policies addressing domestic violence. World leaders gathered to speak on the importance of achieving equality, including Ms. Olena Zelenska, First Lady of Ukraine, who said "I would like to live in a world where there are no differences between people. I would like to live in a world where the HeForShe initiative is not necessary."

UN Women and HeForShe also announced new members of the HeForShe Alliance and their ambitious commitments to accelerate progress towards gender equality. H.E. Mr. Fumio Kishida, Prime Minister of Japan, and H.E. Mr. Felix Tshisekedi, President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, committed their governments to enabling gender equal policies. Bolstering HeForShe partnerships in East Asia, Recruit Holdings was announced as the latest HeForShe Champion with a focus on achieving parity in their global organization by 2025.

Leaders from public, private and academic sectors discussed the issues facing women today during the event. Anita Bhatia, UN Women Deputy Executive Director, led a discussion on the compounding effects of crisis on gender with leaders from MTN Group, PwC, and the Centre for Rights Education and Awareness. The second discussion, led by Sanda Ojiambo, Assistant Secretary-General and CEO of the United Nations Global Compact with executive leadership from UN Women, INSEAD, and HCL Technologies, reinforced the substantial difficulties women face in advancing economically and highlighted key actions to reduce these barriers, particularly as today around 2.4 billion women of working age are not afforded equal economic opportunity. One such recommendation is to ensure sponsorship, not just mentorship, throughout a woman's academic and professional experience.

Closing the event, author and activist Frederick Joseph called on men and boys around the world to embrace the role they play in recognizing gender equality through everyday actions. Actress, activist, and singer Sofia Carson closed the Summit with an inspirational musical performance and took a moment to reiterate the unanimous call that brought these leaders together—men must have an active role in achieving a more equal world.

Millions of British women are victims of online abuse according to shocking new study released today.

New research reveals half (49%) of women gamers in Britain have experienced a level of abuse or harassment when playing or streaming online, rising to 75% amongst those aged 18-24.

The findings delve into the differing experiences faced by both men and women gamers when playing video games on the internet, with over a half (52%) of women admitting they feel worried about playing computer games online, over concerns for their mental health.

The survey of 4,000 gamers, commissioned by Sky Broadband, revealed that over a third (35%) of women said they have received violent messages in the past, with 80% stating they’re often sexual in nature.

Of the women surveyed, half (50%) have felt uncomfortable while live streaming due to hate received by other players. Just under a third (31%) of women players have also lied about their gender and remained anonymous during online gameplay.

Over a third (40%) of women have felt personally threatened by the abuse they’ve experienced online, with 27% worried about being attacked in real life following threats made on gaming platforms.

The levels of harassment are so strong that 25% of women surveyed admitted to feeling depressed with 11% left feeling suicidal. Despite this, 25% wouldn’t tell anyone about negative comments they’re receiving.

The new research comes as Sky Broadband created a new immersive experience in partnership with Guild Esports at the Sky Guild Gaming Centre in Shoreditch that shines a light on the abuse experienced by women gamers in the UK.

The high-level gaming simulator begins as a neutral experience then changes to highlight the terrifying level of harassment that women gamers face daily.

Video content from the experience shows the real-time reactions of male players as they’re slowly given increasingly aggressive messages while they try to game.

Messages such as “Stop playing a man’s game little girl” and “Someone kill this wh*re” can be heard throughout the room, just a snippet of what so many women receive daily.

To launch the findings and the experience, Sky Broadband has partnered with a host of female gamers and gaming experts to feature in a series of striking images that depict some of the abuse they face whilst playing online.

Stephanie Ijoma, Sunpi, Elz the Witch and Danielle Udogaranya, all regular gamers and content creators, appear in front of a backdrop covered with writing that illustrate true-to-life abusive and violent messages that are heard by women in gaming daily.

The four also participate in video content discussing what needs to be done about the rising issue of women’s abuse, and give their thoughts on men’s’ reactions to Sky Broadband’s immersive simulation.

Stephanie Ijoma, Consultant, Gaming Entrepreneur and founder at NNESAGA said: “As women the abuse we receive on a daily basis is simply unacceptable which is why campaigns like this are so important to challenge the gaming community to become part of the change. It’s crucial that we work together in making the online gaming world safer for women as there is absolutely no room for abuse.”

RP @blackgirlthatreads. I purchased this book back in 2017 and never got around to it, but something made me pick it up the other day and I haven’t been able to put it down since.

...

It’s not often that we hear the stories of resistance of those who were once enslaved. And it’s even more uncommon for us the hear their love stories. This one is tearing me to pieces because of the endless way so many pursued their loves despite the situations they faced.

...

You’ll come across a man from Virginia that spent 17 years searching for his wife. A Georgia couple that set sail for England with federal troops trailing behind. A young woman that is delivered to her fiancé in a wooden chest after several hours on a steamboat. And so many more.
