Bird is the word

Empire threatens and intimidates because it wants us to be afraid, small, and alone. It wants us to withdraw and isolate so that we lose our capacity to build power and organize.

So let us be together.
Let us find each other.

I wrote a book about bureaucratic violence and if there’s one thing I wish everyone knew right now, it would be:

The people most harmed can’t tell what’s happening or why. Their lives unravel and, more often than not, they are taught to blame themselves—or other victims.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.

More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.

I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.
