Again: for Black Women, in particular, the ability to chose, a time and place to reproduce is a function of liberty. The most fundamental fact of enslavement was the Black Women had no control over their reproduction; in fact, their ability to reproduce was a key source of other’s wealth.

80 rapes are reported everyday India. “Our bodies are ours”. We shouldn’t have to say this. A 17 yr old college student was gang-raped in New Delhi, India by three men posing as police officers. 65% of women in New Delhi experienced sexual violence & harassment in public spaces this past year.

The most dangerous time for a woman is when she makes the decision to leave an abusive relationship. It’s imperative that she has immediate help & protection because her life depends on it. Women deserve to be happy, safe, & free. If you’re struggling, Help is available www.thehotline.org #Pinks
A picture and the word leaving is highlighted. It says. Leaving is not one brave moment.
Sometimes it is a hundred quiet decisions made while surviving, planning: saving, protecting and waiting for the safest door to open.

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
