Community members greeted kids on their way into Garfield High School in Seattle's Central District, after Mt. Zion Baptist Church, and the organization 100 Black Parents organized a massive show of support. Classes started up again Tuesday morning after a shooting on campus that claimed the life of 17-year old student, Amarr Murphy-Paine.  The shooter, believed to be another high school aged boy, has not been found or identified by Seattle Police.  Monday, a 15-year-old boy pleaded guilty to first-degree murder, among other charges, in the shooting death of a classmate at Ingraham High School in North Seattle in 2022.  In the wake of that shooting, Seattle Public Schools and local elected leaders pledged to step up mental health support for students and improve safety on school campuses and in surrounding neighborhoods. But nearby gun violence has since repeatedly shattered the peace at Garfield, putting the school on lockdown, and now another Seattle student has lost their life at school.   So – what's the answer? How do we protect kids at school –  the place where the LAST thing they should be worried about is dodging gunfire?

'n Onlangs vrygestelde verslag deur die African Partnership to End Violence against Children bevat skokkende statistieke. Daar is gevind dat meer as die helfte van alle kinders in Afrika fisieke mishandeling ervaar, terwyl in sommige dele van die vasteland vier uit elke 10 meisies voor die ouderdom van 15 aan seksuele geweld ly. In sommige streke ervaar meer as agt uit 10 kinders tussen die ouderdomme van 1 en 14 elke maand gewelddadige dissipline. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die holistiese sielkundige Anna Wucher gesels oor hoe emosies soos aggressie lei tot mishandeling.

Across the country right now, cities and transit agencies are taking steps to address violence on their systems — particularly against the people who work to keep our buses and trains running, clean, and safe for everyone to ride. But what are the root causes of that violence — and are strategies like deploying armed police actually addressing them?  On today's episode of The Brake, we speak to Urban Institute Senior Research Associate Lindiwe Rennert about her research into how violence against transit workers correlates with larger problems like police brutality and income inequality – and what that means for transit advocates who want to keep people safe on board.  Listen in, and check out our earlier coverage of Rennert's work here.

Our Government's issued a call to end the violence in the Middle East as the conflict between Israel and Hamas rages on.  All parties in the House have supported a motion urging those involved to 'take urgent steps towards establishing a cease-fire'.  Auckland University international relations expert, Stephen Hoadley, told Mike Hosking that actions like this are to prove that New Zealand's aware of what's happening internationally, and is concerned.  He says it may have no material effect —given there are far more powerful players in the arena— but does put New Zealand on the side of the majority.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Oldest Profession Podcast, host Kaytlin Bailey explores the significance of December 17th, which is the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. This day has been observed by sex worker advocates and allies worldwide since December 17, 2003. Originally conceived as a memorial for the victims of the Green River serial killer in Seattle, this event reignited the sex worker rights movement and has kept the movement alive for the last twenty years.  In this episode, Kaytlin Bailey highlights the challenges faced by the sex worker rights movement in the 1990s and early 2000s, including violence, an increase in law and order policing, and the stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS. She pays tribute to Annie Sprinkle, an accomplished performance artist and sex worker rights advocate and Robin Few, one of the founders of SWOP USA, who both played a pivotal role in organizing the first International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. This annual ritual hosted around the world on December 17th allows sex workers and their allies to gather, share their stories, and commemorate those who have lost their lives to violence. These events serve as a powerful reminder that sex workers are real people and deserve dignity, respect, and safety. We at Old Pros encourage listeners to attend or host a December 17th event to support the sex worker rights movement and create awareness about the violence faced by sex workers worldwide.

How can we fix the problems in our criminal justice system? In a feat that can seem insurmountable, a common approach is to leave the solution to experts and technocrats. But what if, instead of deferring solely to their knowledge, some of this much-needed change was carried out by the people? In her new book Radical Acts of Justice: How Ordinary People Are Dismantling Mass Incarceration, former attorney and law professor Jocelyn Simonson tells the stories of ordinary people joining together in collective acts of resistance: paying bail for a stranger, using social media to inform the public about courtroom proceedings, making a video about someone's life for a criminal court judge, and other acts. When people join together to contest what we have been taught about justice and safety, they challenge the ideas that prosecutions and prisons make us safer. Through collective action, these groups seek to create change from within, reframing ideas of what justice can look like and showing the vital role that grassroots efforts and participatory democracy can play in not only balancing power, but in addressing the moral shortcomings of our modern carceral state and transforming the current systems of policing, criminal law, and prisons. Jocelyn Simonson is a former public defender, professor of law at Brooklyn Law School, and the leading national authority on community bail funds. Her work has been cited by the Supreme Court and discussed in The Atlantic, the New Yorker, and the Associated Press, and she has written for the New York Times, The Nation, n+1, the Washington Post, and others. Radical Acts of Justice (The New Press) is her first book. She lives in New York City. Emily Thuma is an associate professor of politics and law in the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences at the University of Washington Tacoma. She is the author of the award-winning book All Our Trials: Prisons, Policing, and the Feminist Fight to End Violence.  Radical Acts of Justice: How Ordinary People Are Dismantling Mass Incarceration Third Place Books

But violence against children is perpetrated in homes and in schools, in many forms, and in families and countries rich and poor. As the future of our society, either we prevent violence against children while they are young, or we will have to take care of the consequences as they get older. Whether they are your children or someone else's, children are the future of our society, making them everyone's responsibility to keep safe. This includes preventing them from witnessing violence, which also has very serious long-lasting effects. Violence against children is one of the biggest public health problems of our time, and there are dedicated people working to end it on a global scale. But what can we do to help? In this episode of the Making Public Health Personal podcast, we discuss evidence based strategies to prevent and end violence against children. Host Laura Meoli-Ferrigon speaks with today's guest Dr. Kathleen Cravero, Distinguished Lecturer in the Health Policy and Management Department here at CUNY SPH. Dr. Cravero is also the Co-Director of the Center for Immigrant, Refugee and Global Health. She spent 25 years working for the United Nations, including a key role at UNICEF, and dedicates her career to ending violence against women and children. Dr. Cravero will share findings from the CDC's Violence Against Children and Youth Surveys that were collected over 10 years in 24 countries. This includes who is most affected, where they live and how government officials can decide which of the seven evidence based implementations to reduce violence against children should be implemented. No matter what your sphere of influence is, this episode will provide resources to become part of the solution.

If the fallen can perceive of anything better, what will upend violence? This episode is a break from academia to considers important issues in the news and a social problem and personal concern I have with the state of our boys and growing up without positive and attractive influence in their lives. We are losing them to gangs. I'm talking about our boys in Philadelphia who live in vulnerable black and brown communities who have inherited the cycle of operating within the underground economy and all that comes with that. Yet, they are not far from change for they embody "the power of the YET." I share my passions/personal stories from anthropological experiences while living in and learning about the life cycle of older adolescence transitioning to Adulthood. In the episode I discuss with Donte Nelson, Co-Producer about how we can help. We also discuss the issue of Violence. The same amount of violence that it takes to control people requires the same amount of force to push back against that violence. Such is the law of thermodynamics and physics. Yet, violence is the opium of the few and the privilege that continues its position. Violence from below is dismantled, taken to mean criminal, for that is what it is, an attack against a status quo. When is violence acceptable? Is it when violence used to stop oppression and discrimination or the invasion/penetration of the superpowers? But the world has become sophisticated, violence that disrupts leading to uprooting culture, edifices and nature is defeatist for what good is that for the people who must live off that at the end, something must remain. Then we're left with MLK & his diplomatic endeavors that only ceremonial leads to gifted freedoms and his demise, or Marcus Garvey Back-to-Africa endeavors which devolved into nepotism or the usual counterveillance of the dominant. MLK was assassinated & Garvey was jailed, deported leading to his demise. The Archaean's had looked to Achilles the Warrior God-Man as the consummate hero through violence would vilify the Archaean's over the Trojans for their thievery. The Jews would look to the coming of a God in Jesus who will plunder all and restore the glory of Judah, then picked up by the Greeks in their Judeo-Christianity of a Jesus Christ as the ultimate savior but departed from the image of War and violence to one of Sacrifice and Love. Yet the church had their crusades a violent religious war against another religious group for dominance and prominence. Today, violence has intensified all over the globe so that even the US today, which represented a new free world with democracy and laws, had its US capitol attacked, by the same citizens who were opposing the decision of its brethren. Through violence led by their leaders, elites using strategy and the usual jargon that enticed the base, led a coup which was an American Experiment by Extremists. Recently, a 72-year-old man went into a Dance Studio in the Monterey Park Dance Studios in LA during the Asian Lunar New Year Celebration, shot and killed ten people and injured 10. He later took his own life with his gun, when police had engaged him. Jamaica is still considered a very violent country with one of the highest crime rates and there's been a spike in violence in Black and Brown communities in the UK and US, stemming from “Relative Depravity” Therefore, we are everywhere influenced and affected by some amount of violence, from colonization to emancipation and Current aggressions and invasions in the world today. How effective is violence a tool for change and what is the solution to all this violence? Laws that attempt to limit gun access have met walls from powerful gun lobbyists.... So, the answer must lie with Love.... This will be available as an article in The Neoliberal Journals at www.theneoliberal.com.

In Global Norms and Local Action: The Campaigns to End Violence against Women in Africa (Oxford UP, 2020), Peace A. Medie studies the domestic implementation of international norms by examining how and why two post-conflict states in Africa, Liberia and Côte d'Ivoire, have differed in their responses to rape and domestic violence. Specifically, she looks at the roles of the United Nations and women's movements in the establishment of specialized criminal justice sector agencies, and the referral of cases for prosecution. She argues that variation in implementation in Liberia and Côte d'Ivoire can be explained by the levels of international and domestic pressures that states face and by the favorability of domestic political and institutional conditions. Medie's study is based on interviews with over 300 policymakers, bureaucrats, staff at the UN and NGOs, police officers, and survivors of domestic violence and rape — an unprecedented depth of research into women's rights and gender violence norm implementation in post-conflict countries. Furthermore, through her interviews with survivors of violence, Medie explains not only how states implement anti-rape and anti-domestic violence norms, but also how women experience and are affected by these norms. She draws on this research to recommend that states adopt a holistic approach to addressing violence against women. Peace A. Medie is an award-winning scholar and a writer. She is associate professor in politics at the University of Bristol. She studies state and non-state actors' responses to gender-based violence and other forms of insecurity in countries in Africa. She is author of ‘Global Norms and Local Action: The Campaigns to End Violence Against Women in Africa' (OUP 2020). Her debut novel, His Only Wife, was a New York Times Notable Book of 2020 and a Time Magazine Must-Read Book of 2020. Her second novel, Nightbloom, will be published in June 2023. Lamis Abdelaaty is an associate professor of political science at the Maxwell School of Syracuse University.

Tory brings in 'Untamed' and 'Windchester' of local Bikers Club to talk about the senseless violence in Milwaukee and to spread awareness of the mWalk To End Violence happening THIS SATURDAY at 9:30am starting on 27th and Capitol.

Patrice Evra, the former Manchester United, and France Captain has opened up about the abuse he suffered as a child. Speaking to Today's Amol Rajan, Evra said it made him feel “guilty” and “scared about what people would think”. The “shame” he felt meant some years later when he was approached by police, he lied about what had happened to him. Evra has joined the campaign group Together to End Violence, which aims to raise awareness and end child abuse. He has also called for smacking to be banned. (Image credits: BBC)
