"No Physical Injuries" Minimizes the Emotional Trauma of Assault Survivors
David Walton, The National Interest - 18 hours ago
*David Walton* *Health, * Chronic health problems following trauma can rarely be predicted by the severity of the physical injuries. In August 2020, a woman walking along a neighbourhood street in my hometown of London, Ont., was the target of gender-based violence by a man believed to have committed similar violence against another woman six days earlier. Such incidents are far too common and likely under-reported, but when they do garner media coverage, the stories consistently include a line that I highlight here, verbatim from the news report: *“The woman did not suffer any ...

Gary Painter, The National Interest - 18 hours ago
*Gary Painter* *Society, Americas* More than 60% of formerly incarcerated individuals remain unemployed one year after being released. George Floyd’s death highlighted how even a minor alleged infraction – in his case, over a fake $20 bill – can lead to a fatal interaction with law enforcement. As a result, a coalition of advocacy organizations, criminal justice reform advocates and everyday citizens have called for cities to take a wide range of actions to reduce the power and authority of local police departments.
