In a personal celebration of International Women's Day I recommend that everyone who has not already done so view the film Women Talking. Nominated for best film at the Academy Awards it is loosely based on actual events that occurred in a Mennonite community in Bolivia (to US Women) between 2005 and 2009. But it gives us pause to think about how to fight back against what is happening in Texas, Florida, other fascist Republican dominated states, the Supreme Court, Windsor California, as well as Afghanistan, and elsewhere that women are under the gun and power of male supremacy. For one thing, it's easy to boycott Walgreen's and to ask others to join the Courage Campaign's boycott.
