Podcasts about Sexual violence

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Dr. Allison Phipps live from the UK. Classified as a White Woman, Dr. Phipps is the Professor of Political Sociology and Associate Head of Social Sciences, Politics and IR, and Religion at York St. John University. Her research examines: “gender with interests in feminist theory and politics, the body and violence, and racial capitalism.” We'll discuss her 2026 publication, Sexual Violence in Racial Capitalism. Gus was supremely eager to read this book, thinking it would be a scientific, accurate analysis of how White Women and White Men sexually terrorize non-white people. Phipps offers nothing of the sort. A massive chunk of this text is devoted to White Women as victims of patriarchy. Phipps completely erases the sexual abuse of black and non-white males to focus on White female victims and White Men's sewering of non-white females. She relies on heaps of sloppy metaphors and ahistorical ideas - such as black males being thought of as beastly rapists during the chattel slavery era. Dr. Phipps readily agreed with Gus' definition of White Supremacy and acknowledged that is logical to suspect that is a Racist. However, once Gus began to point out the contradictions in her text - like saying black males are "co-opted" patriarchs and simultaneously ungendered subjects of White Supremacy, she hung up the phone and ran like a cowardly thief in the night. #TheCOWS17Years #MaryKayLetourneau #JonBurge #JeffreyDahmer #CounterRacism #TheDelectableNegro #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #TheManNot Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

Sexual violence campaigners have said the spiking of drinks - giving someone drugs or alcohol without their knowledge or consent - is far more widespread than official figures suggest, and they've called for stronger measures to tackle it. RTÉ reporter Karen Creed has been looking at the scale of the problem, and told Justin of her findings.

DescriptionIn this episode of Perfect Prey, I'm joined by Jayden Posen, a survivor and advocate who shares her powerful story of coercive control, grooming, sexual violence, trafficking, and systemic failure.Jayden discusses how abuse can begin through manipulation and trust, how perpetrators use psychological tactics to gain control, and what happens when survivors speak up but the systems meant to protect them fail to listen.This conversation is a reminder of why we need to recognize grooming, understand coercive control, and take survivors seriously.What we cover• Jayden's experiences of sexual violence and systemic failure beginning at age 14• How “boys will be boys” normalizes harmful behavior and prevents accountability• The connection between coercive control, sexual violence, and power• How threats of self-harm can be used as a coercive control tactic• Social media, pornography, misogyny, and the influence of online personalities• Human trafficking, exploitation, and the vulnerabilities within nightlife environments• Why survivors are so often asked the wrong questions• Victim-blaming, silence, and the pressure to protect institutions and reputations• The role of bystanders and the importance of accountability• Why young people need better education around consent, boundaries, power, and healthy relationships• Jayden's work toward the Nightlife Safety and Accountability ActWhy listenJayden's story is a powerful reminder that abuse does not always begin with violence. It can begin with grooming, attention, manipulation, threats, and the gradual erosion of a person's autonomy.This conversation also asks us to look beyond individual incidents and examine the systems, cultural messages, technology, and institutions that can allow abuse to continue.For parents, educators, advocates, clinicians, survivors, and anyone working with young people, this episode offers an important conversation about recognizing coercive control, challenging victim-blaming, and creating environments where accountability matters.Guest bioJayden Posen is a survivor, advocate, and public speaker who uses her lived experience to raise awareness about sexual violence, exploitation, attempted trafficking, coercive control, and systemic failure. After experiencing repeated harm from a young age, Jayden now speaks publicly about survivor advocacy, nightlife safety, accountability, and the need for stronger protections for vulnerable people.She is also developing the Nightlife Safety and Accountability Act, a policy initiative focused on prevention, accountability, trafficking prevention, public safety, and protecting vulnerable people in nightlife environments.Connect with JaydenInstagram: @jaydenposen on InstagramWebsite: JaydenPosen.infoEmail: jaydenposen.outreach@gmail.comLearn more about Jayden's advocacy and the Nightlife Safety and Accountability Act through her website and social media.Connect with Dr. Christine:Protective Parenting Program: Protective Parenting ProgramOfficial site: Coercive Control ConsultingYouTube: Dr. Christine Cocchiola on YouTubeTikTok: Dr. Christine Cocchiola on TikTokInstagram: Dr. Christine Cocchiola on InstagramTEDxTalk: It is ALL Coercive Control — TEDxBooks:FramedEvery Moment of Every DayIf this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who needs to hear it, subscribe for more trauma-informed conversations, and consider leaving a review.

This week, news that didn't make the news, from Palestine. First up, I sit down with Palestinian writer and researcher Nadine Sayegh to discuss her latest piece State, Soldiers, and Systematic Sadism: The Israeli Military's Normalization of Sexual Violence. Nadine explains the Israeli hasbara tactic of purple-washing, the global Norths violent feminism, and the confluence of sex and genocidal violence. We discuss the medias failure to place accountability on systems, suggesting that the problem, much like with the US own torture programs, is just a few bad eggs. Next up, associate editor at the Electronic Intifada Nora Barrows Friedman comes back on the show to discuss the latest news from Palestine: what's the story with Hamas stepping down, as concentration camps are constructed inside the concentration camp of Gaza, and as the so-called ceasefire continues to be violently broken by Israel daily? Nora also discusses the most recent violent escalations of settler violence in the occupied West Bank, and the medias continued failure to cover it, and if they do, to cover it only from the side of Israeli propaganda. Nadine N. Sayegh is a Palestinian multidisciplinary writer and researcher focusing on the Arab-speaking world. Her work spans gender, geopolitics, human security, and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. She holds an MA in Media and the Middle East from SOAS, London, and a Doctorate in Philosophy from the University of Toulouse (Jean-Jaurs), where her dissertation examined multiscalar gendered oppression in Palestine and Jordan. Her research and commentary have been featured in scholarly and journalistic venues, with select works translated internationally. Nora Barrows Friedman is an associate editor at Electronic Intifada and the co-host of their weekly livestream. The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy.

In October 2019, 23-year-old Sarah Rosenberg went on a date at Sydney’s noodle markets with a man she had recently met on a dating app. But when they returned to his place and Sarah explained that she was feeling unwell and didn’t want to be intimate, the night turned into a horrific nightmare. What followed was a grueling journey through a legal system that often felt like it was putting Sarah on trial rather than the man accused. From having her private medical and therapy records subpoenaed to enduring four and a half days of brutal cross-examination without her own lawyer, Sarah experienced firsthand how deeply the justice system can disempower survivors of sexual violence. In this episode of True Crime Conversations, Sarah Rosenberg joins Gemma Bath to share her story, expose the hidden realities of reporting sexual assault in Australia, and discuss how her experience led her to found With You We Can, a registered charity and legal education platform designed to support victims navigating the process. Together, they examine the urgent need for structural reform, the push for independent legal representation for victim-survivors, protecting confidential counselling records, and how to restore agency to those seeking justice.

Judges 19.22-30 This week, we sit with one of the darkest stories in Scripture: a woman needlessly violated and dismembered. We won’t rush past that. But we won’t stay there either. Because when we encounter awful stories like this - in Scripture and in our lives - our hearts cry out: “God, what are you doing about this evil and suffering?” And the answer takes us into the dark mystery of the cross, where God took on a body to suffer on our behalf, so that evil would not have the final word. This is a hard story. But it is also, in the end, one of hope.

Judges 19:22-30 This story vividly reveals humanity’s depravity when there is no king, or more importantly, no God in their hearts, and everyone does what is right in their own eyes. It exposes human sin, not God’s character, and confronts us with the realities of sexual assault, murder, injustice, and evil. Praise Jesus, who did not give us over to the enemy but gave Himself up for us. He offered His own body in our place, bearing the judgment we deserved.

Judges 19.22-30 Judges 19 exposes how far the human heart can fall when it rejects God’s rule, and how our sin wounds others along the way. Yet the story also creates a longing for a righteous King. Unlike the Levite who sacrificed his bride to save himself, Jesus gave Himself so that His bride could live. In Him, sinners receive new hearts, sufferers are seen, and God promises to make all things new.

In part 2 of this episode of The Phoenix Cast, Violence Prevention Educator Cassandra Carmona-Wayman (she/hers/ella) continues her conversation with reproductive health advocate Cristina Ponce (she/hers) about Abortion Access, Reproductive Coercion, and Survivor Autonomy. Cristina shares her abortion story and shares her lived experiences with these topics. We also unpack how shifting laws, financial barriers, and crisis pregnancy centers impact survivor autonomy and safety. We highlight practical resources like abortion funds, doulas, travel support, and trusted clinic locators. We also break down myths about medication abortion and centering abortion as both healthcare and a crucial safety option for survivors of violence.Content warnings: discussion of abortion (including personal and self-managed abortion stories), reproductive coercion, intimate partner and interpersonal violence, sexual violence (including rape and sexual coercion), pregnancy-related homicide risk, and anti-abortion harassment/misinformation.Additionally:We discuss healthcare clinics and abortion providers near the Denver Metro area. Please be aware of clinics that misrepresent their services and can appear misleading to patients in need of care. Some “crisis pregnancy centers” near campus and in Denver are not medical clinics and may offer misleading or incomplete information about abortion and pregnancy options. When you can, seek licensed providers or clinics that clearly offer full-spectrum reproductive healthcare, and remember you can reach out to the Phoenix Center at Auraria for confidential support and accurate referrals.Sources and Resources mentioned in the episode:American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

How is sexual violence related to the advancement of our development as a society and a planet? Listen in to this powerful and candid podcast as Bernadette Fiaschetti and JoDee Neil, author of Outcry Witness: A Former Prosecutor's Guide to Healing and Justice After Sexual Violence as they take us into this dark but necessary conversation we all must have. “This is not a book, this is an understanding.” JoDee believes “Every issue we face as adults can be traced back to childhood wounds.” Outcry Witness is a groundbreaking exploration of trauma, healing, and empowerment from a seasoned courtroom lawyer.For years, Jodee Neil was a prosecutor for Crimes Against Children and a leading attorney in high-profile litigation. As she climbed the ranks, she saw the disturbing truth: the legal system has lost the plot, and society has forgotten its most important duty – to protect the next generation. In Outcry Witness, Jodee combines her extensive courtroom experience with a raw, unflinching account of her own journey as a survivor. This book is a weapon of healing and a promise to advance humanity by protecting the interests of the vulnerable. With both professional expertise and personal courage, JoDee shows readers how to end the silence, find your voice, and become a part of a movement that will change society on a massive scale. JoDee Neil is an acclaimed trial attorney, has been guiding survivors and injured parties through the criminal and civil justice systems for more than two decades of legal practice. She owns Neil Now Legal, PLLC, has served as a prosecutor of sexual abuse cases, and specializes in Crimes Against Children cases. She lives in Dallas with her two daughters, and when she is not barreling towards justice, JoDee enjoys hunting for fossils on the banks of the Red River with her girls.You can find JoDee Neil at:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jodeeneilIG: https://www.instagram.com/jodeeneilattorneyTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jodeeneil.comYou Tube: https://www.youtube.com/@jodeeneilWebsite: jodeeneil@neilnowlegal.com

In part 1 of this episode of The Phoenix Cast, Violence Prevention Educator Cassandra Carmona-Wayman (she/hers/ella) talks with reproductive health advocate Cristina Ponce (she/hers) about how abortion care works, common myths about abortion, and the impact of post‑Dobbs restrictions. They also explore reproductive coercion as a form of abuse, its connections to interpersonal violence, and why protecting survivors' bodily autonomy and access to abortion is essential.Content warnings: discussion of intimate partner violence, reproductive coercion, sexual and physical violence, abortion (including later‑term), pregnancy loss, legal and systemic barriers to care, and brief mention of hospitalization due to assault.Additionally:We discuss healthcare clinics and abortion providers near the Denver Metro area. Please be aware of clinics that misrepresent their services and can appear misleading to patients in need of care. Some “crisis pregnancy centers” near campus and in Denver are not medical clinics and may offer misleading or incomplete information about abortion and pregnancy options. When you can, seek licensed providers or clinics that clearly offer full-spectrum reproductive healthcare, and remember you can reach out to the Phoenix Center at Auraria for confidential support and accurate referrals.Sources and Resources mentioned in the episode:American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

In this episode of Wild & Waking, I'm joined by Nadine Donselaar, Human Rights lawyer, Reiki and Kriya Yoga teacher, women's mentor, and author of Your Journey to Consent: A Practical Guide to Understand, Prevent, and Heal from Sexual Violence. This conversation moves through the tender, layered intersections of consent, sexual violence, gender-based violence, holistic healing, human rights, privilege, and the everyday practice of being fully alive. Nadine brings such a unique lens to this work, blending her background in law and human rights with embodied healing practices like Reiki, womb work, meditation, ritual, and energy healing.Together, we explore what it means to heal without turning healing into another endless self-improvement project. Nadine shares how her own experience with sexual violence, EMDR therapy, energy work, and writing her book shaped the way she supports women in reconnecting with their bodies, desires, boundaries, and inner truth. We talk about the difference between trying to become “better” and learning how to become more fully yourself — not as a new spiritual persona, but as a grounded, living, breathing human being in your real, everyday life.At its heart, this episode is a conversation about choosing life after survival. It's about laughing louder, dancing more freely, asking harder questions, healing in relationship, and remembering that personal liberation and collective care are deeply connected. If you've ever wondered how energy work, embodied healing, human rights, consent, and everyday aliveness all belong in the same conversation, this episode is for you.In this episode, we explore:How Nadine's personal experience with sexual violence shaped her path into healing, human rights law, Reiki, Kriya Yoga, womb work, and women's mentorshipThe difference between healing as a path back to yourself and healing as another endless self-improvement projectWhy “becoming more of yourself” is often less about understanding everything and more about feeling, expressing, and livingHow trauma can live in the body, even after the mind has made sense of what happenedThe role of Reiki, energy healing, womb practices, meditation, ritual, and Kriya Yoga in reconnecting with the bodyWhat it means to choose aliveness, joy, desire, and beauty after seasons of survivalThe intersection of personal healing and collective responsibilityThe importance of knowing your values, standards, boundaries, and responsibilities as a practitioner or leaderHow colonialism, exploitation, lineage, and privilege show up in spiritual and wellness spacesHow consent begins with understanding your own yes, no, and maybeThe complexity of accountability, enablement, harm, repair, and community dynamics after sexual violenceThe power of women gathering, sharing stories, dancing, listening, and being witnessedHow to begin again after a hard season with softness, honesty, support, and joyBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Nadine:Learn more about Nadine's work: nadinedonselaar.comBuy Nadine's book, Your Journey to Consent: A Practical Guide to Understand, Prevent, and Heal from Sexual Violence: AmazonWork with Nadine: Explore her 1:1 offeringsConnect with Nadine on Instagram: @nadine.donselaarFollow Your Journey to Consent on Instagram: @your.journey.to.consentRead Nadine's writing on Substack: A Blessing in DisguiseConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Sign up here to get the inside scoop to my book writing journey!Book me as a speaker for your next event - email inquiries to emilyreuschel@gmail.com or schedule a call hereWild & Waking – Produced by Jill Carr Podcasting | Learn More

Planned cuts to the government agency combatting family and sexual violence don't go far enough, according to an advocate. David White, whose daughter was killed by her husband in 2009, says the Centre for Family Violence and Sexual Violence is an "ivory tower" and a waste of money. But others say the centre has done important work, and worry the cuts will stunt its progress. Felix Walton has more.

In this powerful episode, Allyson sits down with Dr. Giulia Suro, a clinical psychologist and Senior Director of Research at Monte Nido, a national eating disorder treatment company. Giulia shares recent findings from one of the largest naturalistic eating disorder research datasets in the country and what the data reveals about the undeniable link between sexual trauma and eating disorders.What We CoverKey findings: ~50% of adults and ~40% of adolescents entering eating disorder treatment meet active criteria for PTSD at admissionWhy sexual trauma is the most common traumatic experience in this population (60% of adults; 85% of those with PTSD)How eating disorders function as trauma responses including avoidance, numbing, dissociation and protectionThe bidirectional relationship between trauma and eating disorder symptomsWhat is included under sexual violence and how technology has made sexual violence more rampantWhy simultaneous treatment of trauma and eating disorders is supported by the research and why waiting to process trauma until 'after' ED recovery is not always the best optionNavigating OCD, intrusive thoughts and trauma Key TakeawaysThe eating disorder is often doing the job of trauma avoidance- you can't separate them in treatmentSexual trauma doesn't require a firm "no" - powerlessness, inequity and vulnerability create the conditions for harm and perpetrationSelf-blame after trauma is often an attempt to create predictability and prevent future harmRecovery is a feminist process: naming the systems that failed you can fuel healingAs a provider, unless someone is actively suicidal with intent, plan and means, don't wait to start trauma workFor trauma survivors, the worst day is already over, which is both a strength and source of grief.Resources & LinksGiulia's website: www.giuliasuro.comGiulia's Instagram: @giuliasurrophdAllyson's Instagram: @bodyjustice.therapistAllyson's website: www.eatingdisorderocdtherapy.comDisclaimerThe content of this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional mental health treatment or medical advice.

Israeli military forces captured the latest convoy of humanitarian aid ships sailing to Gaza with the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSM) between late April and mid-May. Activists who were imprisoned by Israel for days and eventually deported have reported harrowing treatment by their captors, including targeted torture, abuse, broken bones, unauthorized injections of undisclosed substances, and sexual violence by Israeli soldiers. We speak with a panel of freed GSM participants—Thiago Ávila, Catríona Graham, and Ariadne Telles—about what they saw and endured, and about the successes, defeats, and future of the movement to break Israel's siege on Gaza.Studio Production / Post Production: David HebdenBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

For B'Tselem executive director Yuli Novak, the firestorm around the New York Times column by Nicholas Kristof decrying sexual violence by Israelis against Palestinians in the West Bank and in Israeli prisons has had the wrong focus. Speaking on the Haaretz Podcast, Novak said the Israeli government’s "propaganda machine" and other critics focused on challenging the facts regarding the abuse described in the piece, which she says are backed up by "dozens of testimonies" collected by her organization. "I would say it's much less a question whether these things [sexual abuse of Palestinians] are happening or not happening, and much more about what it means for all of us, and first and foremost for the victims." In its report on prisons, based on testimonies from Palestinians detained and then released from 16 detention facilities after October 7, B’Tselem documented "ongoing torture, physical and mental" abuse and the use of starvation and denial of medical treatment "as a policy." B’Tselem’s conclusion: that these facilities represented "a network of torture camps," which Novak admitted "was hard to grasp as an Israeli. For me – torture camps have been something that happens somewhere else." October 7 had been an opportunity and a “catalyst” for right-wing extremists in the government to influence policies in the direction of “their nationalist, racist, and in the case of National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and the prison system – I would even say their sadistic agenda,” Novak said. “We can keep telling ourselves that we're a democracy, but if Israel, holding almost half of its population under its control without the right to go and vote for the system that governs them, it's not a democracy.” Read more: B'Tselem Report: Testimonies Describe 'Pattern of Sexual Violence' Against Palestinian Prisoners UN Secretary-General Report Accuses Israeli Forces of Rape, Sexual Abuse of Palestinian Detainees Ben-Gvir Is Not Alone: These Are His Collaborators in the Illegal Treatment of Palestinian Prisoners Op-ed by Yuli Novak: Even if You Call Israel a Democracy, It Is Still Apartheid Israel Must Let Red Cross Visit Palestinian Security Prisoners, High Court Rules Read B'Tselem's full report on Israeli prisons as a network of torture campsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Israel added to blacklist for sexual violence“Israeli soldiers and prison guards have faced allegations of a wide range of abuses against Palestinian detainees since October 2023, including rape, torture, starvation and degrading treatment.At least 100 prisoners have reportedly died in custody under these conditions, with nearly half dying in military detention and the remainder in facilities run by the IPS.Dozens of testimonies from released detainees have detailed alleged mistreatment in Israeli custody.”What does being blacklisted do? First off: A Bar on Peacekeeping Operations: National military, police, or state security forces that are repeatedly listed are prohibited from participating in United Nations peacekeeping operations.Secondly it is more of a shaming tactic. While the listing itself is a public censure, it establishes a formal UN monitoring framework that increases the likelihood of targeted UN Security Council sanctions, arms embargos, or investigations by the International Criminal Court. Thus this aids the ICC investigation that is already ongoing. Above is a clip from TOOL. This has nothing to do with the story of Israel finally being blacklist for their grotesque ongoing acts of rape and sexual torture. But I feel like all of these dark stories can start to eat at people. Music can be therapeutic. It can unlock and release emotions that are already there. TOOL may or may not be you jam. But take a moment today maybe to pull up something you used to like. Use real headphones and take a few minutes to really just tune in.It is important for the mind to get a release.

Edmund Fitton-Brown critiques a New York Times report on Israeli violence as poorly sourced and timed to distract from Hamas's sexual violence. He warns about shifts in American media coverage. Bill Roggio joins the conversation. (12/16)1950S CASTRO

Two and a half years after October 7th, the Civil Commission on October 7th Crimes by Hamas Against Women and Children has published its comprehensive report — 300 pages of meticulously corroborated evidence documenting what was done to women, men, children, and hostages on that day and in captivity since. This week, Yonit and Jonathan speak with Dr. Cochav Elkayam-Levy, the founder and chair of the Commission, 2024 Israel Prize laureate, and expert in international law and human rights — the woman who spent more than two years immersed in 10,000 photographs and videos and 430 testimonies so the world could not look away. They discuss what the evidence reveals about the scale and calculated nature of the atrocities, why so many feminist organisations around the world fell silent, the new legal concept of “kinocide” that the Commission had to coin because no existing term could capture what had happened to families — and what it means that the person who stared deepest into this abyss still believes in peace.

A new report, released by Israel's nonprofit the 'Civil Commission', details ‘systematic' rape and sexual violence during Hamas Oct. 7th terror attack on Israel. Hamas militants and their allies wanted “to maximize pain and suffering” on their victims with gang-rapes, sexual torture, and forced nudity. The sexual violence did not end the day of the attack but continued to happen to women, children and men that were taken hostage and forced into the underground tunnels of Gaza. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Aviva Siegel, held hostage by Hamas for nearly two months after being kidnapped with her husband, author of the book 'Survived To Tell', who shares her story, and why the information in this new report is so important for the world.

Many people remember #MeToo from when it went viral in 2017. And before the hashtag, there was the Me Too movement, started by activist Tarana Burke 20 years ago as a way to support survivors of sexual violence, especially Black women and girls. This hour, we’re reflecting on what has changed since the height of the Me Too movement. We'll discuss everything from policy to social media. GUESTS: Nicole Bedera: Sociologist who studies sexual violence and author of On the Wrong Side: How Universities Protect Perpetrators and Betray Survivors of Sexual Violence.

In this episode, learn about the intersection of animal protection and cruelty, domestic violence, and family law with two leaders in the field. Guests Maricarmen Garza is chief counsel for the American Bar Association Commission on Domestic & Sexual Violence and Megan Senatori is the executive director of the Center for Animal Law Studies at the Lewis & Clark Law School. The field of animal law is emerging as states, courts, and lawyers recognize how animal law and animal abuse plays into domestic violence and family law. Progress is being made, but this critical field isn't fully recognized or understood. In many cases, victims of domestic violence are forced into difficult situations, caught between their own safety and the safety of beloved animal family members. The American Bar Association recently recognized the issue through both its Animal Law Committee and the Commission on Domestic & Sexual Violence. ABA's recently approved Resolution 504 calls for laws and judicial processes that protect domestic violence survivors and their pets through civil protection orders, domestic relations proceedings, and expanded access to safe housing. Litigators play a vital role in developing this area of law. Hear what you can do and where you can find legal guidance when protecting victims of domestic violence and their pets, from dogs and cats to horses and others.

Ann Gleig (Professor of Religion and Cultural Studies, University of Central Florida; PhD, Rice University, 2010) studies spirituality emerging from the encounter between Buddhism and American culture, particularly meditation and mindfulness. The author of American Dharma: Buddhism Beyond Modernity (Yale University Press, 2019); and co-editor with Scott A. Mitchell of The Oxford Handbook of American Buddhism, she has published widely about how the incorporation of psychotherapeutic and social justice frameworks have transformed American Buddhist practices. A recipient of a Sacred Writes media partnership to write for Religion Dispatches, Dr. Gleig's public-facing work has also appeared in The Conversation and Tricycle: The Buddhist Review. Ann Gleig will collaborate with Nalika Gajawira on a comparative ethnographic study of how Buddhist communities adopt and adapt popular spiritual exercises such as "secular" mindfulness and yoga classes within a wider Buddhist framework. Their work aims to illustrate the processes, frameworks and relationships that can enable more responsible relationships between specific religious communities and the word of spiritual wellness practices.   Ann Gleig, "The Deepak Chopra-Jeffrey Epstein friendship tells of a spirituality industry in crisis," Religion News Service: https://religionnews.com/2026/03/06/the-deepak-chopra-jeffrey- epstein-tells-of-a-spirituality-industry-in-crisis/ Ann Gleig and Brenna Artinger, "The Buddhist Culture Wars #BuddhistCultureWars: BuddhaBros, Alt-Right Dharma, and Snowflake Sanghas," Journal of Global Buddhism Vol 22: 1(2021) https://www.globalbuddhism.org/article/view/1298 Ann Gleig and Amy Langenberg, "Supporting Survivors of Abuse," Abuse in Buddhism: Facing It, Preventing It and Healing From It, Dharmadatta Community https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Tlvm5gq-G0 Ann Gleig, Amy Langenberg and Sarah Jacoby, "Reflecting on Heartwood/Northwestern Symposium on Sexual Violence in Buddhism: Centering Survivors Voices," The Shiloh Project https://shilohproject.blog/reflection-on-heartwood-symposium-on-sexual-violence-in-buddhism- centering-survivors-voices/ Ann Gleig, Talking About Cults: Abuse and the Study of New Religious Movements: https://www.ugapress.org/9780820377902/talking-about-cults/ Association for Spiritual Integrity (ASI) https://www.spiritual-integrity.org/ Seek Safely: https://seeksafely.org/

Day 1,506.Today, as Putin finally agrees to a brief ceasefire this weekend to mark Orthodox Easter - trying to pass the initiative off as his own generosity - we examine what a ceasefire is and, importantly, what it is not. We report how the next round of so-called peace talks have run into the sand and we have our regular update about resistance operations in the occupied territories. Plus, a special report from Adelie, for which discretion is advised, about how Russian troops are using sexual violence as a tactic in their war.Contributors:Dominic Nicholls (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @DomNicholls on X.Adélie Pojzman-Pontay (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @Adeliepjz on X.With thanks to Dr Jade McGlynn and Sara Cincurova.NOW IN FULL VIDEO WITH MAPS & BATTLEFIELD FOOTAGE:Every episode is now available on our YouTube channel shortly after the release of the audio version.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. David Anderson, PhD, a professor of biology at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI). We discuss the brain circuits that underlie how emotions emerge and shape behaviors, including the neural control of fear, aggression and pain. We also explore how hormones and neuromodulators influence these emotional states, and why understanding these hidden internal processes is essential for improving future mental health treatments.
