“After each mass shooting, students, parents and neighbors call for common sense gun laws while pundits and legislators distract us with talk of mental illness and catchy phrases about people killing people, not guns. Relatively lost in the din of the well-practiced post-shooting punditry is a path forward: if we want to stop mass shootings - whether in schools or yoga studios - we have a stake in working together to stop violence against women.”

“This complicated picture means that each of our paths to reshaping the world must pass directly through violence against women. Whether our passion is to improve healthcare access, end school-to-prison pipelines, increase the GDP, build an immigration system that respects the dignity of human beings, or create pathways to justice - all of that work requires ending and responding effectively to violence against women.”

“Using data from 2004 to 2011, they found that rates of violence did not go up as unemployment went up overall. However, the devil was in the gendered details. When men's unemployment went up, incidents of domestic violence against women went down. In fact, an increase in men's unemployment of less than 4% corresponded to a 10% to 12% drop in domestic violence. Yes when women's unemployment went up, so did domestic violence against them. A 3% increase in women's unemployment translated in a 9% to 10% increase in domestic violence. This pattern was unique to domestic violence - it didn't hold up for things like theft or more general violence.”
