When Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine 🇺🇦 one year ago this week, USAID stood ready to deliver critical assistance. Learn how we #StandwithUkraine: usaid.link/ir6

This compilation of 16-year-old Sarina Esmailzadeh’s vlogs is so beautifully done but also equally heartbreaking. 💔 Sarina was killed by security forces on 9/23 and now authorities are trying to make it look like she committed suicide. #MahsaAmini #SarinaEsmailzadeh

Come be my big boss! :)

A gender perspective is indispensable for understanding mass shootings, conflict and war. The overwhelming majority of perpetrators of lethal violence are men, yet most men never fire a weapon in anger. How come? This is a thread with examples of relevant research.

Although the topic at hand was disheartening, at best, it was an honor to hear from @USGSRSGPatten about the ways in which her team is working to combat "the world's cheapest weapon" in Ukraine and beyond.

@RepBarbaraLee This is absolutely appalling.

A doctor AND sitting US Senator felt comfortable saying that maternal mortality rates were only bad "if you count Black women." Don't tell me there isn’t systemic racism in our health care system.

TBT: First IRL professional event since 2020 with @Andrealpimentel! Thanks to the students from @BushSchool for presenting their much-needed research on how online harassment of female political figures undermines democracy, & thanks to @USIP and @US_CSWG for hosting!

"And if we fail to use every tool at our disposal to hold the Taliban accountable and support Afghan women and girls practically, we are complicit in their silencing and erasure."

I'm so proud of the talented players of @USWNT who worked tirelessly for years to advocate for the pay they deserve. I'm thinking of all the little girls everywhere who dare to dream and will see this team as an example of what's possible when you never give up. 👏🏾

@ussoccer @USMNT @USWNT

In a historic accomplishment, U.S. Soccer, @USMNT and @USWNT have come together to agree to new collective bargaining agreements that will run through 2028 and achieve true equal pay – including equalization of World Cup prize money.

Everyone should read this.

“War can sound very tidy when it’s described with words like ‘phases,’ ‘offensives’ and ‘territory,’ but it’s not tidy. The front line may stretch about 300 miles, [...] but where does the war stop? It has no clean edges.” nytimes.com/2022/05/10/opi…

Pearly Young, 77, was killed today in #Buffalo shopping for groceries. For 25 years she ran a pantry where every Saturday she fed people in Central Park. Every. Saturday. She loved singing, dancing, & being with family. She was mother, grandma, & missionary. Gone too soon 🕊

Read each organization's full statement on the Taliban's decree here. #WomensRights #Afghanistan

The Taliban’s Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice recently ordered a decree that all women leaving their homes must wear a head-to-toe covering. In response CSWG members released the following statements: cnn.com/videos/world/2…

This is unacceptable—and only the tip of the iceberg.
