#February19, date FDR signed EO 9066, was chosen as an annual #NationalDayOfRemembrance to reflect on the incarcerations/internments & events that led to them. Of the 120K incarcerated, 2/3 were #UScitizens.
#EnduringConviction by Lorraine K Bannai describes Fred Korematsu's quest for justice.
On #NationalDayofRemembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. The 1989 massacre was misogyny coming out of the closet. And perhaps it's time for the Gender portfolio to be moved out of BC Finance into a Ministry of its own. islandsocialtrends.ca/insights-dec... | @j-blatherwick-mla.bsky.social
We will continue to take action, year over year, to end violence against women, girls and gender-diverse people.

As we continue our fight against gender-based violence at home and at work, we must also tackle violence within the labour movement. On this day, and every day, we join those across the country demanding an end to gender-based violence everywhere that it occurs. #NationalDayofRemembrance

Congress marks a “National Day of Remembrance” for a man who spread racism. We remember differently.
We remember our ancestors who survived, our people who fought, and George Floyd—whose stolen breath became a call for justice. ✊🏾 #NationalDayOfRemembrance

On this National Day of Remembrance, we recommit ourselves to ending gun violence, supporting survivors, and saving lives.

Domestic abuse significantly increases suicide risk. More Black & minoritised women take their own lives following abuse than are killed by a perpetrator. Yet their suicides remain largely invisible in data, policy & services.
Structural inequalities - racism, immigration restrictions, lack of specialist ‘by and for’ support - trap women in danger. Warning signs are too often minimised by agencies. Missed chances to protect mean preventable deaths.
In one case study, a woman suffered 19 years of abuse. 4 recorded overdoses. Distress dismissed as “family tensions.” Nine months after disclosing assault & suicidal thoughts, she died by suicide. ❌ Her story is a reminder: specialist services are a matter of life or death.
Imkaan continues to call for action: ⚫ Recognise suicide as a VAWG issue ⚫ Track suicides linked to abuse, incl. ethnicity data ⚫ Ensure intersectional & trauma-informed post-death investigations ⚫ Invest in specialist ‘by and for’ services
Today on #NationalDayOfRemembrance we are remembering victims of fatal domestic abuse, including those who die by suicide.
