Unlocking the Dark Ages: A Short History of Chastity Belts An intense chastity belt on one of the wives in the new Mad Max film. I got the chance to catch a showing of the new Mad Max and was not disappointed. As I do with most everything in my life, I had my antennae up for any classical allusions or appropriations. Hanan Al Hroub - The Global Teacher Prize Bio Hanan grew up in the Palestinian refugee camp, Bethlehem, where she was regularly exposed to acts of violence. She went into primary education after her children were left deeply traumatised by a shooting incident they witnessed on their way home from school. Her experiences in meetings and consultations to discuss her children’s behaviour, development and academic performance in the years that followed led Hanan to try to help others who, having grown up in similar circumstances, require special handling at school. With so many troubled children in the region, Palestinian classrooms can be tense environments.

The pop cultural obsession with Princess Diana’s innocence, explained Fame is a dragon. We feed it with virgin sacrifices. And was there ever a virgin sacrifice like Princess Diana? From the moment that Diana first appears on Netflix’s The Crown, a gawky 16-year-old tiptoeing away from Prince Charles with her supermodel face peeping out from behind a schoolgirl’s costume mask, a thread of electricity runs into the show: Ah, at last, there she is.

Brexit court case: Who is Gina Miller? Image copyright EPA Gina Miller has become the figurehead of the legal fight to get Parliament to vote on whether the UK can start the process of leaving the EU - but who is she? Ms Miller, 51, is an investment manager and philanthropist who was born in Guyana but was educated in Britain. In an interview with Vogue in January, Ms Miller spoke of her early years in the UK after she and her brother moved to Eastbourne in East Sussex leaving their parents in Guyana. She was sent first to Roedean School on the outskirts of Brighton at the age of 10, then to Moira House Girls' School, in Eastbourne, East Sussex. She recalls working in local hotels as "a chambermaid or clearing up in the restaurant" while her brother did paper rounds and washed up in kitchens because their parents were not allowed to send money to the UK.

Many of us are gearing up for our first holidays alone—without our usual family gatherings—and we might be turning to our laptops and televisions more than usual to fill those gaps. Luckily, we have our favorite holiday films to comfort us in both big and small ways. Whether you are all about a classic family-friendly holiday film (so cozy!)

W. E. B. Du Bois’ Hand-Drawn Infographics of African-American Life (1900) William Edward Burghardt “W. E. B.” Du Bois — sociologist, historian, activist, Pan-Africanist, and prolific author — had also, it turns out, a mighty fine eye for graphic design. sans titre Women’s reputation as nurturing homebodies who left warfare to men in long-ago societies is under attack. Skeletal evidence from hunter-gatherers in what’s now California and from herders in Mongolia suggests that women warriors once existed in those populations. Two research teams had planned to present these findings April 17 at the annual meeting of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists. That meeting was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

No, today’s feminists are not The New Suffragettes - spiked The celebration of the centenary of the Representation of the People Act, which gave propertied women over 30 and working-class men the right to vote, has been fascinating. United in their cooing over the Suffragettes, the political class and many columnists have been tweeting and soundbiting to anyone who will listen about how deeply they love that historic victory for women. Some feminists have even claimed that the Suffragette cause is alive and well, as evidenced in the #MeToo ‘movement’, the BBC’s equal-pay warriors, and the well-connected women facing down sexist trolls. They can’t be serious. If we were able to bring the Suffragettes back from the dead, I bet they would have some bones to pick with those posing as their heirs.

Forget the backlash — we need #MeToo now more than ever My initial reaction to the #MeToo movement, the social media continuation of the sexual misconduct backlash that toppled prominent men like Kevin Spacey and Harvey Weinstein, was surprise. I wasn’t shocked to learn that sexual harassment and assault are so widespread — this has been my daily reality for as long as I can remember — I just didn’t realize that anyone besides the victimized actually cared. Very little in my observations of our culture, our criminal justice system, or the industries where abuse so often flourishes led me to believe that was true. Watching the accusations and (sometimes half-hearted) apologies roll out across social media felt like watching a bizarre but welcome alternate universe unfold. My second reaction was “This can’t last.”

How To Prevent Rape Culture In Movies In Just Four Simple Steps Kevin Spacey, Harvey Weinstein, James Toback, Brett Ratner, Bill Cosby — the list of famous men accused of sexual harassment and assault is growing longer each day. And as Hollywood is faced with handling these troubling allegations, there is another crucial aspect of the industry that requires attention: content. Not only do Hollywood films and TV shows sometimes enable sexual assault, they also help, if often unintentionally, enforce harmful, misogynistic behaviors.
