FM Dec 22: #SayHerName: Black Women, Police Violence, & Abolition / The Hope Desk

This week on Feminist Magazine with host Lynn Harris Ballen :: FIRST … 2020 will mark six years since #SayHerName, the movement to draw greater awareness and action around Black female victims of police and state violence, was created by the African American Policy Forum.
Why is that the deaths of Black women at the hands of police don’t seem to generate as much outrage as the deaths of Black men? What can be done to address this perceived lack of outrage, and put an end to the deaths of ALL Black people at the hands of police?
From Making Contact, with Thandisizwe Chimurenga
AND … How can we discuss social inequality & hot-button issues and truly hear each other in these divided times? Author and sociologist Kimberly Dark hosts monthly sessions of ‘The Hope Desk’ online – to model intersectional conversations about racism, sexism & more.  With clear, easy to understand explanations, not debates – Kimberly invites folks to ‘join your friendly neighborhood sociologist’ live (and for free) as she offers simple explanations for 2 complex social issues per episode. We hear from her about how it all works.
