GBV- where are we as a country? The patriarchy is very strategic in derailing our agency by creating so-called feminist platforms that do not speak to feminist principles. Feminists give their blood, sweat and tears in establishing policies and platforms. The strategy is that when these spaces become too powerful, create havoc amongst the feminists to derail the work.  They will push womxn to be responsible for breaking down structures those other feminists have worked so hard at creating.  These actions also derail the healing and progress of many victims/survivors. Too many of us dying emotionally and psychologically? Too many have died.
