Deborah Frances-White notes that US politics is now dominated by a Christian right emboldened by its success in overturning Roe v. Wade. But she warns:

"This isn’t exclusively a US problem – women’s rights are increasingly at risk in the UK and Europe, too. ...

Between 2008 and 2017, about $50m of funding flowed into Europe from 12 of the most influential Christian rightwing foundations in the US, according to research by OpenDemocracy in 2019."

Michael Rosato’s mural in Cambridge, Maryland, #USA

This lifelike mural of Harriet Tubman is painted on the side of the Tubman Museum and Education Center. Tubman is shown stepping out of a broken brick wall, arm extended as if reaching for the viewer’s hand. Behind her, a calm riverside landscape glows under a setting sun. The artwork is titled Take My Hand and has become an iconic tribute to her legacy.

"GOP leadership has set its sights in recent months on disempowering conservative-coded #women, especially. The state-level laws restricting #ReproductiveRights disproportionately affect Republican-voting women... And there's been a big push to take female leaders down a peg, with #MAGA influencers now openly saying women shouldn't be in leadership."

Text from article: As I wrote about in February, GOP leadership has set its sights in recent months on disempowering conservative-coded women, especially. The state-level laws restricting reproductive rights disproportionately affect Republican-voting women. Proposals to restrict voting rights would disenfranchise married women more than single women, which would again do more harm to Republican women. And there's been a big push to take female leaders down a peg, with MAGA influencers now openly saying women shouldn't be in leadership. Johnson's tantrum is more of the same. Republican men really mean all this talk about strict gender roles, and women in their party are starting to pay a personal price.

Astonishingly, some people are still banging the “women aren’t funny” drum. @damemagazine shares sketches from the women of “Saturday Night Live,” from Gilda Radner and Jane Curtin to Cecily Strong as Goober the Clown, talking about abortion.
