Social Justice

My dear friend, Elaine Pandilovski age 44, was one of the many women who have been murdered by a current or former partner. Her son at age 12 was left to be raised by his elderly grandmother. He has autism. That was in 2020 and things have only gotten worse since. There is deafening silence from both sides of politics on this issue. Where’s our national day of mourning? Where is the action on this? If you are silent you are complicit. These deaths are PREVENTABLE!!!! DO something NOW!!! Why the hell are people who have histories of violence and DVOs out on them getting bail? Why don’t sentences match the crime? Where have we failed women during the justice process? There was outage at the Bondi terrorist attack and I expect the exact same level of outrage and action on this. Governments have blood on their hands.

Every woman has a story about men either hurting them or making them uncomfortable or scared of being hurt.
Too many women are being hurt and killed. Children grow up seeing it. It’s time we actually face the issue and investigate what is contributing to the problem, and what can and must be done to help.

As a survivor of Domestic Violence, I am one of the “lucky ones” I got to keep my life.
Enough is enough we need real action.
