This is why so many women who agree with TERFism do not speak out. Thank you, Sall, for your voice and sacrifice. Silencing you just makes you louder.

🚨 BREAKING: Sall Grover withdraws from Sydney rally after death threats are made against her and Kirralie Smith by a trans-rights activist:

To Kirralie: “We are going to put a bullet through your f..king head for bringing men to (a transgender soccer player’s) game to intimidate her! 1 terf 1 bullet”

“So happy you lost $100,000 but it’s not f..king enough we WILL ruin your life as much as humanly possible. We will never stop pursuing your suffering! And trans people are going f..king NOWHERE you subhuman filth! We will haunt you as long as you live! You will never be safe! Trans people are all over the world too, and thanks to the internet, also connected! We know what you look like in other words 🙂 on f..king sight.”

“The message also featured a photograph of Ms Grover, with the caption “1 terf 1 bullet”.

Year after year, women rallying for sex-based rights have faced intimidation, threats and violence from trans-rights extremists. Yet governments and institutions have too often looked the other way as threats of violence- and now explicit threats to kill- are becoming a chillingly common occurrence. It was no different last week when Pauline Hanson faced similar threats of violence from protesters in cities across Australia.

Enough is enough. Death threats are not activism. Threats of assassination are not political protest. No cause, no identity and no ideology puts anyone above the law. Governments must stop excusing violent extremism as protest and start treating credible threats against women and political figures with the seriousness they demand.

Because silence is an endorsement that will encourage violent extremism.

Jocelyn Crawley's book review of Sara Ahmed's latest work is here!

"To submit complaints, then, is really an act of refusing to be compliant. Thus as Ahmed argues, “The difference between compliant and complaint is only two letters, but they are worlds apart. When we don’t comply, saying yes, accepting things as they are, or at least appearing to, the hostility intensifies” (157, 158). The juxtaposition of the terms compliant and complaint thus makes evident how regimes of power operate and why resistance to them is necessary."

Jocelyn Crawley reviews Sara Ahmed's book "No! The Art and Activism of Complaining."
