RE: ADSactly Poetry - When Women Write to Defend Themselves
Interesting publication, @nancybriti. Certainly women are living through a difficult time. Many are victims of cruel machismo, but they live in silence, resisting out of fear. Many cases remain invisible. That must definitely change and the voices are already being raised. We must unite to defend our rights. One of the advances has been the fact that the United Nations declared 25 November as the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women in 1993.
The verses you quoted are clearly a protest and this must flood all the arts and all spheres of society. Thank you for these reflections and @adsactly for sharing them.
