Welcome to episode 15(ish) of series 3 where Lisa does a mini-breakdown on the connection between mass shootings and the Patriarchy. There is a clear link between toxic masculinity, misogyny and violence and this mini-sode focused on connecting the dots between them all. Instead of offering thoughts and prayers, we want you to come away from this episode with daily actions that can be applied to yourself, your children (if you have them), and your wider community.  If we want to stem the tide of systemic discrimination and the violence that results from it, we need to make it part of our every day lives. We hope you’ll join us.- Research sources backing the connection between domestic violence, misogyny and mass shootings can be found here, here, and here. There is much more out there, please take the time to look into this further.- Please check out our "Feminism 101" suggested reading list here if you're at a loose end for a great read from a Feminist author.- Find out more about the amazing artists, Nubefy, behind the graphics we use here.
