Avoid being fooled by ppl who want to make violence against Black women an issue of "choosing the right man".
Violence against women is a global epidemic that gets worse during times of crisis. (Ex: pandemic)
It's embedded in societies. It's systemic.
The storm of intersecting oppressions (racism, anti-blackness, sexism, poverty, bigotry); leaves Black women everywhere most vulnerable to rape, violence, abuse, and hate.
If we know that Black people are not to blame for racism and intentionally constructed systems to maintain white supremacy. We are also capable of knowing that Black women are not to blame for intentionally constructed systems to maintain power, control, & abuse against women.
