    Her gün kadınlar öldürülüyor ama siz katilleri, zorbaları bırakıp kadınları tutukluyorsunuz, yazıklar olsun. Bugün kadınlar saçlarından sürüklendi. Trans bireyler hedef seçilip darp edildi, gözaltına alındı. Bu nefret suçudur. (

    İntihar gibi gösterilmek istenen kadın cinayetleri artıyor. Her gün kadınlar şiddete uğruyor, katlediliyor ve nice zaman katiller “intihar” yalanının arkasına saklanmaya çalışıyor. Bu çok önemli bir yazı, yüreğinize kaleminize sağlık

    "Anne, sana bir şey söyleyeceğim" Ayten Kaya kapatmak zorunda kaldı, söyleyemedi. Ertesi gün asılı halde bulundu. "İntihar" dediler, otopsi "cinayet" diyordu. Aytenlerin sayısı çoğalıyor ama soruşturma ya yok ya eksik. Şüpheli kadın ölümlerini yazdım.

    “Solitude” does not mean being ‘isolated’ from everyone and everything. It is an “inner garden” where we must spend time, day in day out. No matter how hard we try to change this sometimes, writers are solitary creatures

    Eleştiri amaçlı yazmıyorum,mizaha değer verdiğim için yazıyorum. Bu çok güzel, yüreklere dokunan bir kapak, güzel ustalara saygıyla yapılmış... Fakat Sevgi Soysal, Halide Edip, Tomris Uyar, Behice Boran, Tezer Özlü, Mina Urgan, Duygu Asena...? Neden cennetteki tüm yazarlar erkek?

    “Yazidis have been forgotten during Covid. They need international support, they need justice, jobs and a return home... “ Powerful, important article by 💐

    The international community must pair on-the-ground support with diplomatic pressure on stakeholders in Iraq for the sake of stabilising the Sinjar region.
