Murdering Women’s Voices is the Mission of the GOP

My deep sympathy to the friends and family of <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/21/us/california-pride-flag-shooting" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Laura Ann Carleton</a> who was murdered for flying a rainbow flag in front of her California business. I continue to be shocked and angered by her death. Her courage and moral clarity will not be forgotten. It should not be lost on us that while this cowardly murder was set in motion by LGBTQI+ rights, the person murdered was a politically courageous and outspoken woman. The political silencing of women and non binary people through the threat of violence, rape, femicide is intentionally being encouraged by the Republican Party. We see this in the weaponizing of anti-abortion laws across the US, MAGA movements to legalize child marriage, strategically placed fringe voices asking if women should be allowed to vote at all. It’s all carefully orchestrated by a Republican Party intent on silencing women. <a href="https://remakingmanhood.medium.com/murdering-womens-voices-is-the-mission-of-the-gop-110b88d1e9f6">Visit Now</a>
