Allegations against Diddy re: trafficking, sexual assault, & abuse date back to the early 1990s. His money & influence shielded him from facing any meaningful consequences, at the expense of many young women. We stand with all survivors who continue to demand justice.

One year ago today, Illinois implemented the Pretrial Fairness Act & became the first state to completely end the use of money bond.
Illinois has taken a critical step towards reducing mass incarceration & became a national leader in pretrial reform.

🛑 You have entered the #RedZone, the time between students moving back on campus through Thanksgiving break (August -November) where at least 50% of campus sexual assaults occur.
By understanding the Red Zone, we can make a difference in campus sexual violence.

Gender and anti-youth bias can twist a girl’s report of sexual violence into a charge against her. Learn more in our report co-authored with @rights4girls, “Criminalized Survivors: Today’s Abuse to Prison Pipeline for Girls.” buff.ly/4de9f8Q

Current laws don’t apply to deepfakes, leaving women and girls who suffer from this image-based sexual abuse without a legal remedy.
It’s time to give victims their day in court and the tools they need to fight back.
I urge my House colleagues to pass this bill expediently.

“The majority women in porn are trafficked…I work with them. They experience violence, coercion, STIs. They want you to think it’s fun & they’re enjoying it. From my experience & the hundreds of women Ive worked with tells you otherwise.” -Monique Calderon #listentosurvivors

📣 Message from our CEO, @herstoryk regarding the House resolution invoking the CRA to overturn the new #TitleIX regulations.
“We cannot afford to turn back the clock on Title IX protections…Doing so would endanger the safety of countless students…”
ALT Image of the Chief Executive Officer of End Rape On Campus, Kenyora Parham and a text with a quote from her that reads, “We cannot afford to turn back the clock on Title IX protections. Doing so would not only endanger the safety of countless students but also send a dangerous message that their rights and experiences are not valued. At EROC, we are committed to fighting for the rights of all students and ensuring that their voices are heard and respected.”

Today is #BlackWomensEqualPayDay. The wage gap robs Black women of economic security—especially Black women who are also experiencing financial abuse. Imagine how life-changing these numbers could be for Black DV survivors. 💜 Join the social media storm at 2:00 ET today!
ALT An illustration of four Black adults standing and holding signs reading: "66 cents!? Black women deserve better." and "Closing the wage gap would give Black women: 26 months of food. 23 months of child care. 12 months of mortgage payments. 22 months to pay off student loans. 12 months of health insurance." Below, red text reads: "Close the wage gap. Black women's economic futures depend on it." NPWF logo at bottom.

I’ve been working with @AscendJustice to help make sure this story is told and that law enforcement and @Meta start taking it seriously before something really bad happens. 🧵
One of the scariest stories I've read in a long time, and maddening that police say there's nothing they can do to protect this woman & her children. Their dad is using social media to stalk them -- and paying strangers to help, via @StacyStClair @joemahr: tinyurl.com/5aemf82n
