We never talk about people who need or want abortions as living things. All the focus goes on embryos, because for some reason, they’re more important than the people who are carrying them.
I wonder how they’d react to those of us who cannot carry to term due to illness and risk of life carrying signs that said “pregnancy will stop my beating heart”…
They would tell you to not have sex. Yes, that really is something an anti-choicer would say. :/

”We do not want to improve the actual system; we want a profound change – to stop seeing education as a consumer good, to see education as a right where the state provides a guarantee.”

Ezzedine Errousi, a Moroccan student from Taza who was detained for taking part in the anti-regime protests earlier this year. To protest his detainment, Errousi went on hunger strike for 134 days. He was released from prison yesterday. The above video is his statement.
Read a translated transcript of an interview with his sister here. It goes into brief detail about his current conditions.
Additionally, below are two photos of Errousi. One before he was detained, and one the day he was released:

The Silent War is a social awareness campaign about rape in South Africa illustrated and designed by Greg Richards.
“As there are six colors in the South African flag I developed six different areas of rape to raise awareness towards. Each poster carries a different colour of the flag. The six areas are: child rape; why men rape; woman’s chance of being raped versus learning to read; South Africa being the rape and HIV capital of the world; women are primitively referred to as fair game by men; and the frequency of rape incidents per day. For each image the person is looking directly at the viewer to create a direct communication of the campaign’s message.” writes Richards.
This is Africa, our Africa
