Survivors of rape and sexual assault should never have to choose between therapy and justice. I joined @EmilyThornberry and Labour women MPs calling on Boris Johnson to intervene and tell the Attorney General to reconsider this reckless, ill-considered and dangerous guidance.

“Shaming is one of the deepest tools of imperialist, white supremacist, capitalist patriarchy because shame produces trauma and trauma often produces paralysis.” - bell hooks 🕊 I hold these words tightly given how heavy this year has been.

I have completed this survey. It is very gentle, and doesn't delve into experiences of #SexualTrauma or request details. It's a series of questions that you score on a likert scale. Max 20 minutes to complete. I love to see a psych researching #Compassion.

For those without funds for full-fee psychotherapy and do not want what the NHS offers, I found this very helpful list of low-fee places around the country. You are well within your rights to ask for experience + anything else. freepsychotherapynetwork.com…

If anyone has clothes to give away, please drop them off at East London Mosque. Refugees come with letters from the Home office and get allocated appts to collect clothes. We’re so fortunate during this weather to have clothes on our back, let’s think of others that aren’t

This is why silence cannot and should not be encouraged. Communities need to do better in holding abusers to account and supporting victims. This is a heart breaking thread

After suffering for more than 30 yrs of domestic violence, my Khala is finally free of her oppressor. Tomorrow, the family elders will gather at her funeral & shed tears of sorrow for the life that was lost... For the many deaths that took place while she was "alive". 1/

Only this year, 232 rape cases happened in #Somaliland. These are the reported cases only! I am wondering how many of these rape victims got justice. How many were children? How many were force to many their rapist? How many cases were solved through tribal negotiations?

Victims of sexual exploitation are not able to disclose. The culture of disbelief means victims are not able to get justice
