There is a script. It runs every time someone asks a question nobody wanted asked. The media runs it. Community culture runs it. Heritage culture runs it. Slice & dice words. Lose context. Make the person asking the question the story. EP19 is out now. open.substack.com/pub/jkfred…

The IFS called the 12% survivor tax permanent. I disagree. It was permanent because nobody named it. 🎧EP 15 - Like Me Officially: Closing the 12% Gender-Based Violence Gap: what survivors, supporters & workplaces can actually do. jkfrederick.substack.com/p/c… #OurTimeToThrive

The "Give to Gain" era is over. @TheIFS IFS has confirmed a permanent 12% "Survivor Tax" on earnings. If the National Emergency strategy doesn't protect the paycheck, it isn’t protecting the person. Read: open.substack.com/pub/jaykam… #12PercentTax #VAWG #TheConvening

There’s still a lot to unpack in the Violence Against Women and Girls strategy. Episode 7 of Like Me podcast reflects on prevention, accountability, and what we keep avoiding when we talk about violence at scale. jkfrederick.substack.com/s/l…
