Even
as Delhi braved its coldest winter in over a century, 82-year-old Bilkis — with
a smile on her face and a shawl around her shoulders — sat with hundreds of
women under a canopied tent at the national capital’s Shaheen Bagh anti-CAA/NRC
sit-in protest for over three months. Within days, Bilkis and the other elderly
women, who participated in the protest became the symbol of resistance and
hope, came to be fondly known as the “Dadis of Shaheen Bagh.”
TIME
magazine has now included Bilkis in its list of “The 100 Most Influential
People of 2020.”
Journalist
and author Rana Ayyub, who has penned the piece for TIME magazine, says,
“Bilkis became the voice of the marginalised… Became the symbol of resistance
in a nation where the voices of women and minorities were being systematically
drowned out by the majoritarian politics of the Modi regime.”
The Shaheen
Bagh protest went on for 101 days and was cleared by the Delhi Police on March
24 in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
In
January, as the Shaheen Bagh sit-in inspired similar protests across the
country, Bilkis had told The Indian Express, “We are old and we are not doing
this for ourselves… This is for our children. Why else will we spend our days
and nights during the coldest winter of our lives in the open?”
On
January 26, Bilkis, along with the mothers of Rohith Vemula and Junaid Khan,
hoisted the national flag at Shaheen Bagh as hundreds of people showed up there
for Republic Day celebrations. At the time, the resilience of the “Dadis of
Shaheen Bagh” was captured in songs, poems, slogans and graffiti as well.
In
February, when an armed assailant fired at least two shots barely 50 metres
away from the stage at Shaheen Bagh, Bilkis was at her spot near the stage. At
the time, she told The Indian Express, “There was panic inside the tent but
people eventually calmed down. We walked till the point where cartridges were
found and offered prayers… These bullets don’t scare us.”

A
16-year-old Australian student, Mayela Dayeh, will address the United Nations
general assembly on Wednesday night to present the findings of a survey that
shows young women and girls are shouldering a greater economic, domestic and
emotional load and working harder during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The
study, released by humanitarian organisation Plan International as part of a
report called “Halting Lives – The impact of Covid019 on girls and young
women”, surveyed more than 7,000 15-to-24-year-olds across 14 countries.
“I
think Covid has exacerbated issues we already knew were there, which we had
either become complacent about or comfortable with, especially in terms of the
gender divide,” Dayeh, a secondary school student, said.
“Looking
at my circle of friends and acquaintances, there have been greater
responsibilities expected of them at home, and there’s been an absolute decline
in mental health.”
As
part of the Plan International survey, 7,105 young women and girls in
Australia, Brazil, Ecuador, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, India, Mozambique,
Nicaragua, Spain, the United States, France, Vietnam, and Zambia were surveyed
between 9 June and 14 July. They were asked about their knowledge of the
Covid-19 pandemic and its consequences on their lives in relation to education,
wellbeing, economic security, livelihoods and access to technology.
Nearly
one-third (26%) were worried about the loss of household income due to the
pandemic, and 62% said they were struggling as a result of not being able to go
to school or university. More than half (58%) of girls were feeling the
negative effects of not being able to leave the house regularly, while 58%
highlighted not being able to socialise with friends as a negative consequence
of the pandemic. Nine in 10 girls surveyed said they were feeling high or
medium levels of stress or anxiety due to the pandemic.
In
Africa, girls and young women not being able to go to school or university was
the most frequently cited negative effect (20%). Girls and young women in Spain
and India reported the highest levels of “major change” to their lives, the
survey found.
“This
aligns with the reports of lockdowns in both these countries,” the report said.
“Spain had the most reported cases in Europe and quickly imposed a nationwide
quarantine to stop the spread. India also had one of the world’s strictest
lockdowns. The severity of the Indian lockdown has not necessarily resulted in
fewer cases … Unsurprisingly perhaps as high levels of poverty and overcrowding
in India make social distancing practically impossible.”
A
report from the United Nations population fund, published in April, predicted
lockdown-related disruption over six months could leave 47 million women
globally unable to use contraception, leading to a projected 7 million
additional pregnancies. The United Nations report also said “over the next
decade, the often-overlooked secondary impacts of Covid-19 could also result in
31 million new cases of gender-based violence, 2 million million more cases of
female genital mutilation and an estimated 13 million more child marriages”.
This was seen during the Ebola outbreak, when there was a spike in unintended
adolescent pregnancies in Sierra Leone.
A respondent
to the Plan International survey, 16-year-old Lucilene from Mozambique, said:
“I live with my brother and my parents who have chosen not to talk about such
topics as sexual health because they are very traditional. I fear that if the
coronavirus does not go away soon, many girls who grow up in families like mine
will not be able to have access to useful information we get in school girls’
clubs.”
A
co-author of the Plan International report, research manager Isobel Fergus,
said the survey results revealed that “opportunities fought so hard for are
disappearing”.
“They’ve
told us about tensions at home, feeling lonely, and missing school, their
friends and the easy freedoms of going out and about,” Fergus said. “It is
going to be very difficult to make up for this lost time and the digital divide
means girls, particularly in low-income countries, find it hard to access the
information they need for their education and their health.”
When
the results are presented to the United Nations general assembly on Wednesday,
Dayeh will call on it and other international donors to pay particular
attention to low-income countries. Education ministries must prioritise
learning continuity during school closures, the assembly will be told.
Director
of advocacy and community engagement for Plan International Australia, Holly
Crocket, said: “The survey is a wake-up call for governments to recognise that
health emergencies affect groups differently.
“For
girls, the risks of staying home are heightened,” she said. “It affects their
mental health and puts them at greater risk of domestic violence. Because of
the patriarchal social norms that dictate girls should take on the vast
majority of unpaid domestic labour, there is a real threat that they will be
made to drop out and stay out of school.”

Migrant Women to No Longer See Doctor Accused Of Misconduct

Immigration
authorities have stopped sending detained women to a rural Georgia gynecologist
accused of performing surgeries without consent, a government spokesman said
Tuesday.
Dr.
Mahendra Amin faces allegations that he administered hysterectomies and other
procedures that women held at the Irwin County Detention Center didn't seek or
fully understand. Amin has seen at least 60 detained women, said Andrew Free, a
lawyer working with other attorneys to investigate medical care at Irwin
County, on Tuesday.
Bryan
Cox, a spokesman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, confirmed that
Amin would no longer see patients, but declined to comment further, citing an
ongoing investigation by the Department of Homeland Security's inspector
general.
The
Irwin County Hospital issued a statement defending Amin, saying he “is a
long-time member of the Irwin County Hospital medical staff and has been in
good standing for the entirety of his service to the Irwin County community.”
The
statement did not address Amin's role as chief executive of MGA Health Management,
a company that began managing the Irwin County Hospital in 1996, according to
the hospital's website.
According
to the statement, Amin operated on two detained women who were referred to the
hospital for hysterectomies. Heath Clark, the hospital's general counsel, did
not respond to questions about whether Amin performed hysterectomies in cases
where the women had a different initial referral. Clark also did not say how
many other procedures he had performed that could jeopardize a woman's ability
to have children, including the removal of fallopian tubes or ovaries.
The
allegations against the doctor were first revealed in a complaint filed last
week by a nurse at Irwin County Detention Center. The nurse, Dawn Wooten,
alleged that many detained women were taken to an unnamed gynecologist whom she
labeled the “uterus collector” because of how many hysterectomies he performed.
The
Associated Press on Friday reported that at least eight women since 2017 had
been taken to see Amin for gynecological treatment. Free said Tuesday that a
team of lawyers had heard from dozens of more women raising concerns about the
doctor.
"It’s
long past time to stop sending women to this physician and to companies that
provide services on his behalf," he said, adding that he was concerned
women detained at the facility could potentially face retaliation for coming
forward about the doctor.
Scott
Sutterfield, an executive at LaSalle Corrections, which operates the detention
center, said the company would not “take or threaten any action” against
detainees who report information “in good faith.”

Younger
Women 'Bearing Brunt' Of Second Wave of Covid in UK
Ian Sample
22
Sep 2020
Younger
women are “bearing the brunt” of the UK’s second wave of coronavirus
infections, according to a fresh analysis of hospital admissions prepared by
government science advisers.
Hospital
records reveal a substantial rise in the number of women aged 20 to 40 admitted
for serious coronavirus infections since the beginning of August, a
country-wide trend that suggests younger women are now more exposed to the
virus.
Calum
Semple, professor of child health and outbreak medicine at Liverpool University
and a member of the government’s Sage committee, suspects the rise is driven by
younger women being more likely to have roles that leave them vulnerable to
infection when people no longer adhere to Covid-19 guidelines.
“We’re
seeing a big excess,” he said. “Something is wrong in the way society is being
managed because women between 20 and 40 are currently taking the brunt of this
second wave.”
While
the cause of the rise is unconfirmed, Semple believes the surge is driven by a
combination of people becoming lax around coronavirus guidelines and younger
women being in roles that put them at most risk. There is no evidence it is
linked to schools reopening.
If
you have been affected or have any information, we'd like to hear from you. You
can get in touch by filling in the form below, anonymously if you wish or
contact us via WhatsApp by clicking here or adding the contact
+44(0)7867825056. Only the Guardian can see your contributions and one of our
journalists may contact you to discuss further.
He
said the higher proportion of women working in hospitality, such as pubs, cafes
and restaurants, in the caring sector, and in shops where they come into
contact with customers, could leave them more exposed to the virus,
particularly when people get sloppy about social distancing and other
preventative measures.
The
rise has emerged in data Semple gathers continuously from hospitals across
England, Wales and Scotland for the Covid-19 Clinical Information Network, or
Co-Cin, which provides weekly updates on the disease to the Department of
Health and Social Care.
The
latest Co-Cin data show that between January and September, 56% of the people
treated in hospital for coronavirus were men and 44% were women. But since 1
August, women have accounted for 48% of those treated in hospital, the rise due
to almost entirely to a surge in the number of admissions of women aged 20 to
40. There is no rise in admissions of men in that age range.
Semple
stressed that the disease is still most harmful to older age groups and those
with specific medical conditions, but said the rise in younger women underlined
the need for all ages to take the second wave of infections seriously.
“It
is not simply a disease of the elderly. We are seeing people between 20 and 40
who are otherwise fit and well who are being affected,” he said. “It’s clear to
me that these working women are being exposed to the virus and that can only be
because other parts of society are not taking heed of the guidance. The message
is that Covid is real and it does affect younger adults.”
Concerns
over an increase in infections among younger people, particularly women, were
raised in a Sage situation report on 27 August, which highlighted the risks
they posed to more vulnerable people they came into contact with. Those
infections are now driving up the numbers of people being treated in hospital.
A
2013 study by the Office for National Statistics found that women made up more
than 80% of staff in caring, leisure and other services. Chris Rauh, an
economist at the University of Cambridge, said women were often less able to
work from home, and more women than men were employed in face-to-face retail
and hospitality jobs, which were hit particularly hard by the spring lockdown.
“If a
greater share of women returned to work, and those jobs are more in
face-to-face roles, it could be a factor in the rise,” he said.
Sophie
Walker, the chief executive of the charity Young Women’s Trust said: “It is
deeply concerning that women who have been on the front line of our care
response and economic recovery might also be at increased risk from the virus.
“We
urge the government to analyse closely the impact on young women from close contact
with the virus via the paid and unpaid work they have been asked to shoulder –
from work in care homes, shops, pubs and restaurants to unpaid caring for
children who are sent home from school.
“If
directives such as ‘eat out to help out’ and the focus on the school return are
having a disproportionate impact on women’s health we need to have an urgent
response plan.”

Considering
5 women for Supreme Court vacancy: Trump
IANS
Sep
22, 2020
WASHINGTON:
US President Donald Trump said that he is considering five women for the
Supreme Court seat vacated by the death of liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Speaking
to reporters at the White House on Monday before leaving for state of Ohio to
campaign, Trump said they are being "vetted very carefully" and that
he has spoken to some of the candidates and will also have some in-person
meetings, Xinhua news agency reported.
The
president said the announcement of his pick will be on "probably Saturday,
but Friday or Saturday."
He
added that he would rather see a full Senate vote on his nominee before
Election Day, which falls on Nov. 3 this year, a move intended to cement a 6-3
conservative majority on the court.
Judges
Amy Coney Barrett, Barbara Lagoa, and Allison Jones Rushing are said to be on
Trump's shortlist.
Barrett
and Lagoa, both confirmed in bipartisan votes by the Senate, are reportedly top
contenders.
Ginsburg
died last week due to complications of metastatic pancreas cancer at age 87.
A
renowned champion of women's rights and liberal icon, Ginsburg was appointed to
the U.S. high court by then-President Bill Clinton in 1993. She was the second
woman appointed to the bench and served more than 27 years.
As
the country continues to be saddened by her death, a partisan debate is raging
over whether and how swiftly the Senate, which is responsible for confirming or
rejecting nominations by the president, should move to fill the empty seat.
Senate
Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican and
Trump ally, told committee Democrats in a letter on Monday that he intends to
"proceed expeditiously to process any nomination made by President Trump
to fill this vacancy."
Democrats
are accusing Republicans of hypocrisy because they argued in 2016 that voters
should weigh in before then-President Barack Obama tried to fill a Supreme
Court vacancy in that election year.
Republicans
hold a 53-47 advantage in the Senate, but two of them have said they believe
the chamber should not move forward with a Trump nominee, whose confirmation
requires a simple majority.
Ginsburg
will lie in state at the US Capitol on Friday, becoming the first woman in
history so honoured.
A
separate ceremony will be held Wednesday morning at the Supreme Court for
Ginsburg's family, close friends and members of the court. The public then will
have the chance to pay their respects under the portico at the top of the
courthouse steps.
Ginsburg
will be buried at Arlington National Cemetery, which is across the Potomac
River from Washington, D.C., according to the Supreme Court.

How
Artists in Turkey Are Responding to Violence against Women
Yasemin
Elci
Sep
22, 2020
This
past June, a Turkish woman took to Twitter with the following statement: “My
husband can work if he wants.”
The
post came after another round of grim news stories documenting domestic
violence against women, as well as incidents of femicide. More Turkish women
joined the chorus on Twitter, posting similar messages, such as: “The most
beautiful career for a man is fatherhood.” Posts like these are meant to
reverse and mock the discriminating and humiliating remarks used to hold
Turkish women in an inferior social position to men. And, by doing so, Turkish
women hope to spur an ongoing conversation about the dangers they face due to
their gender.
These
underlying societal issues have been addressed in contemporary art long before
Twitter. Turkey’s pioneering contemporary female artists such as Nil Yalter,
Nur Koçak, and Füsun Onur (the latter of whom will represent Turkey in the 2022
Venice Biennale) produced work commenting on gender inequality, women’s
objectification, and their struggle in society since the late 1960s.
However,
contemporary art in Turkey is becoming an increasingly prominent platform to
discuss women’s rights. And women artists in Turkey continue to play a critical
role in challenging the conservative gender norms.
Işıl
Eğrikavuk, a Turkish contemporary artist, writer, and scholar based in Berlin,
noted that humor has been used as a protest tool, most notably during
International Women’s Day celebrations in Turkey.
“The
topic of women’s rights is so heavy that we feel the need to create moments of
relief,” Eğrikavuk said. “That is why we need a playful language to reverse
situations and to embrace an alternative perspective, both in protests and in
contemporary art.”
Eğrikavuk’s
piece Time to Sing a New Song was commissioned right after the International
Women’s Day marches on March 8, 2016. Inspired by the innovative rally signs,
Eğrikavuk created an animated video installation with the slogan “Eve, Finish
Up Your Apple!” The artist proposed an alternative to the cunning female image
of Eve that is at the core of monotheistic religions. Eğrikavuk’s Eve could
finish eating her apple instead of giving it to Adam, which ironically bore
consequences for the artist, as prophesied in the religious texts.
Installed
on top of Istanbul’s Pera Marmara Hotel, the video was taken down just after
three days. The municipality allegedly claimed that it was causing visual
pollution. The artist resisted and urged for an explanation from the
authorities, but her petitions went unanswered. Her last resort was to produce
another artwork as a reaction to the censorship. One month later in Depo
Istanbul (a nonprofit art space), Eğrikavuk and her students put on a live
performance that ended with one last phone call to the municipality—in front of
the audience. In order to remind women to break out of the victim mentality
which can easily become a trap, Eğrikavuk exhibited the two works together in
the group exhibition “The Ends of Freedom” at Halle 14 in Leipzig, Germany, in
2019.
In
July of this year, the brutal murder of Pınar Gültekin, a 27-year-old Turkish
woman, by an ex-boyfriend also prompted outrage on social media. Women posted
black-and-white selfies to protest the growing toll of femicide in Turkey and
to emphasize that it can happen to anyone if the necessary laws are not brought
into force. Thousands rallied in support of the Istanbul Convention, a treaty
by the Council of Europe that fights for an end to violence against women.
Neriman
Polat, an ardent feminist artist from Turkey, has bravely delt with human
rights issues in her work for nearly 25 years. Polat is disappointed not to see
more contemporary artists addressing this pressing issue of femicide through
their art.
“My
work becomes a way to commemorate women who were murdered, and to resist
injustice,” she said. “By triggering deep-seated feelings in people, art can
communicate messages more powerfully than words.”
Polat
believes that artistic production is critical to fighting against violence and
to expressing the inequality and pressures women face in their daily lives. She
also acknowledges the blunt truth that being a woman artist today, in Turkey or
elsewhere in the world, is still challenging.
Gülsün
Karamustafa, one of Turkey’s most influential visual artists whose work
explores sociopolitical changes in modern Turkey, said that women have always
had a special role in the arts—even though they used to be fewer in number.
Karamustafa has observed the increase in female artists working in Turkey, as
well as their accomplishments and recognition, since the 1980s.
Having
been involved in various feminist organizations in Turkey since 1970s,
Karamustafa has witnessed the changing context of gender discussions, though
she acknowledges that women artists have a different approach to this topic
since they tell their own stories.
“We
shouldn’t talk about their work as if it’s a different language,” she said.
“When their unique stories meet others, together they create a vast impact that
cannot be achieved through other methods.
Karamustafa
also pointed out that the current debates are not just on positioning women
artists in history, but also on LGBTTIQ rights. While we need certain labels to
construct accounts of the past, filtering art through gender can obscure
personal expression and undermine diversity.
The
internationally acclaimed Turkish artist CANAN has renounced many labels in her
life, including her last name. She refuses to use surnames, which she believes
are “forced” and depend on “the permission of the husband and the government”
during the marriage process. Likewise, during divorce proceedings, a surname in
turn becomes a symbol of “permission of the government and the gift of the
husband,” she said.
Until
recently, both her personal life and her art revolved around the feminist
slogans “the personal is political” or “the private is political” that were
popularized in the late 1960s. CANAN’s art has long questioned the governing
power of institutions such as religion, government, and society on personal
choices. However, in time, she began viewing empowerment as an inner act,
independent from others. CANAN now endorses the belief that “personal happiness
is a political act,” she said, meaning that individuals shape societies, not
the other way around.
CANAN
still defends equal rights and opportunities, yet she no longer categorizes
herself as a “woman artist” or a “feminist.” Her view on the future resonates
with Sheryl Sandberg’s famous quote: “In the future, there will be no female
leaders. There will just be leaders.”

Over
130 Women Trade Unionists Demand an End to Femicide In Turkey
Morning
Star
23-09-2020
MORE
than 130 women trade unionists have demanded an end to femicide in Turkey in an
open letter to the leaders of every trade union in Britain.
The
letter calls on the general secretaries to demand action to stop the abuse of
women in Turkey, where femicide cases are rising rapidly amid a huge surge in
domestic violence.
Abuse
of women by police and military personnel has also increased, leading to
protests by Turkish women’s groups, trade unions and female politicians.
Several
protests have been attacked by police officers and women have been arrested and
beaten for protesting.
Kurdish
women have been particularly targeted by police and military forces, with
lawyers and politicians defending the perpetrators of the violence.
Meanwhile,
the Turkish government is considering withdrawal from the Istanbul Convention,
a Council of Europe treaty which commits signatory governments to support women
experiencing male violence.
The
letter calls on trade unions to demand that Boris Johnson’s government raises
concerns with Ankara, send solidarity messages to sister unions and seek an
urgent meeting with officials to press Turkey to maintain support for the
Istanbul Convention.
Among
the signatories to the letter is Unison national executive member Maggie Cook,
who said: “As women trade unionists, we are responding to calls for support
from sisters in Turkey and Kurdistan, where the situation for women has been
getting worse.
“This
is an issue in the home, in the community and in workplaces.
“It
is worsened by statements from Turkish politicians that tell women to stay at
home and defend perpetrators of male violence.”
