Speaking Through My World with Rosie Motene
Is it possible to end GBV with so many gatekeepers?
The gatekeepers of the patriarchy are dangerous and are derailing so much work. We all need to put in the work and be transparent.
We call on media to report effectively and stop using social media feeds without consent; please do the necessary research and stop quoting out of context.
We request that the revered cast and crew show true solidarity with those that speak out. Your silence is protecting perpetrators.
Broadcasters, public entities, production houses, are your strategies working?
Have you set up platforms that are effective in ending GBV?
Are your staff protected, and do they have access to adequate healing?
