A Feminist Social Media Future: How Do We Get…

At the 65th session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women that is currently underway (March 15-26, 2021), the focus is on evolving a global roadmap towards “achieving full equality in public life”. In the digital epoch, this includes enabling women’s effective participation online. Mainstream social media platforms today represent privately controlled public arenas that are re-configuring social interaction and political democracy. Viral sexism, misogyny, and gender-based violence – endemic to these platforms – pose a real threat, ruthlessly discriminating against and excluding women and people of non-normative genders.

Recent developments in the assassination case of Daphne Caruana Galizia have led to one of the three accused of executing the murder, Vincent Muscat, currently in custody, pleading guilty to the charge. This has led to Muscat being condemned to 15 years effective jail time, meaning that there are now two separate cases: the case against Vince Muscat and the case against the Degiorgio brothers, the other two accused of being the executioners. 

Il caso Assange: 10 anni di persecuzione, tortura psicologica…

GAMAG Europa, il capitolo regionale della Global Alliance for Media and Gender, lunedì scorso ha accolto favorevolmente la decisione del tribunale inglese di non estradare Julian Assange negli Stati Uniti nel processo sulla libertà di stampa più importante di questo secolo. Ma ieri abbiamo appreso con disappunto che gli è stata rifiutata la possibilità di uscire di prigione sotto cauzione e che quindi deve restare a Belmarsh, il carcere di massima sicurezza di Londra, dove Assange ha già passato un anno e mezzo in isolamento nella sua cella e ha cominciato a soffrire di depressione.
