Arrived in Upsalla for the Nordic Aphasia Conference with a bunch our wonderful Better Conversation Lab members from @UCL_MScSLS @ucl @BCAphasia @BCPPAphasia @SusieWSLT Ingvild Winsnes, Fern Rodgers and Claudia Olivares Matus! 😊
Este hilo es de los más horrendos que he leído y al mismo tiempo de los más necesarios de leer por el machismo y la misoginia normalizada en nuestra sociedad. La cultura del abuso y la violación está ahí, al lado, donde menos lo esperas 😔

Participa y comparte.

No metieron presa a Cathy Barriga por robar 30 mil millones de pesos, y Hermosilla sigue libre a pesar de levantar una red de corrupción, pero meten a la cárcel a Daniel Jadue por vender remedios a un precio justo. La Fiscalía y Tribunales están comprados por la derecha política.
