I know this is probably a small error and not intentional Oliver Dickson . But we don’t say Cwecwe was allegedly raped, we say she was raped, allegedly by…., or allegedly at her school. The rape self cannot be alleged. It seems small, but it’s important to point it out

Did the so-called “Nguni” migrate from somewhere up north? Can we lay claim to this land or are we just settlers? Sandile Wamadzikane claims we’re DIRECT DESCENDANTS of the Khwe (Khoe). And he has receipts! #thepopishow

Rape is common. Sexual violence is normalised. We like to think of it as rare, but it’s everywhere. And it’s “normal” men doing it. Boyfriends, friends, fathers, brothers. We need to step away from the myth that rape is just done by monsters jumping from the bushes.

Your monthly reminder: Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write.

🇿🇦 A 16 year-old Bohlale Mphahlele from South Africa invented a smart earpiece that looks like an earring and helps fight violence against women by taking photos of attackers and sending instant alerts. Her life saving idea won a bronze medal at the Eskom expo for young

I was misdiagnosed for 6 months taking gastritis meds when I had PCOS. I’ve been denied medical care because “what if your husband wants…” I’ve been assaulted. My pain especially during my menstrual period has been dismissed as something else.

As a woman and a medical doctor, I find this tweet deeply irresponsible and steeped in medical misogyny. This isn’t humor. It’s harm. You can easily tell when a medic was trained to consume and regurgitate information without thought, empathy, or respect for patient autonomy.

As a student of History and observer of people, a lot of you seem to only view violence in the physical form. That way of thinking is dangerous. It allows you to forget poverty is violence. That denying you healthcare is violence. That polluting your water and air is violence.
