Jordan’s activist Bryan Stevenson is trying to get prisoners off the row while Alfre Woodard’s warden Bernadine Williams oversees their executions-the two actors each have moments of stillness where they seem to physically vibrate from the internal trauma they’re suppressing. Though the lead characters differ in intent- Michael B. “Just Mercy” has the misfortune of hitting theaters at the same time as “ Clemency,” a more daring and better film set on a prison’s Death Row. "Just Mercy" is currently streaming for free on Amazon, Google Play, and YouTube.

PLoS Biol 20(10):Īcademic Editor: Emanuele Di Lorenzo, Brown University, UNITED STATESĬopyright: © 2022 Bender et al. This Essay presents Ocean-centered governance as an approach to help achieve the 10 challenges for collective impact put forward as part of the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development and therefore living in a harmonious relationship with the Ocean.Ĭitation: Bender M, Bustamante R, Leonard K (2022) Living in relationship with the Ocean to transform governance in the UN Ocean Decade. Within the Earth law framework, an Ocean-centered approach views humanity as interconnected with the Ocean, recognizes societies’ collective duty and reciprocal responsibility to protect and conserve the Ocean, and puts aside short-term gain to respect and protect future generations of all life and the Ocean’s capacity to regenerate and sustain natural cycles. Earth law, including Rights of Nature, provides a pathway to center humanity as a part of Nature and transform our relationship from one of dominion and separateness towards holism and mutual enhancement. Humanity’s relationship with the Ocean needs to be transformed to effectively address the multitude of governance crises facing the Ocean, including overfishing, climate change, pollution, and habitat destruction. Back in the day, the Brothers Grimm used their stories to warn us against going into the woods alone, talking to strangers and eating at random people’s houses - at least two of which were legitimate dangers at the time. Sneaking lessons and morals into children’s stories might seem like trying to con a picky eater by discreetly tucking spinach into a meatball, but it’s a tradition as old as fairy tales themselves.

First Republic shareholders will be wiped out in the transaction, Wedbush analysts said. Shares of JPMorgan rose 2% on Monday, while those of mid-tier banks fell and the KBW Regional Banking Index (.KRX) closed down 2.7%. bank failure in two months and the largest since Washington Mutual in 2008.

Surprisingly, Sunraider asks for the leader of the Black church congregation, called Hickman, to come to his hospital room so the two could reminisce about their past. But this horrible act of violence could have been prevented had Sunraider's secretary actually listened to a Black church congregation, Sunraider would not be lying on his bed, near-death. It would be accurate to say that Ralph Ellison's Juneteenth opens with a bang: the near-assassination of an old, racist Senator called Adam Sunraider.

Again, they're the villains in this au so all prodigies have to become part of it and it's uhhhh not a good government. Basically when Nova was little the Renegades took over Gatlon and the Age of Anarchy never happened bc the Council overthrew the government and replaced it. Ummmmm so my friend on tumblr came up with the brilliant idea of what if the Renegades were the villains from the start and the Anarchists, now called the Resistance, were the heroes and vigilantes. main characters getting to have their moms back can i get a hell yeah.Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings.Choose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Graphic Depictions Of Violence.Language: English Words: 65,433 Chapters: 29/?

He resisted her ten years ago for a good reason. She tries to keep him out of her life, but Connor can’t let it go. When he sees her on the cover of a magazine, it reawakens every urge he buried. There was only one thing he ever resisted, and it was the one thing he wanted most: the unknowingly enticing Jaxxon. He hurt her once, and she won’t allow it to happen a second time.Ĭonfident, determined, compelling…Connor McKenzie isn’t a man who deprives himself of what he wants. But she has no intention of giving in to the mindless need between them. She also finds herself the focus of lethally sensual Connor McKenzie, who she hasn’t seen since he left their foster home and went on to become a Formula One driver. When a chance encounter leads to a modelling job, she is catapulted to the peak of success. A one-bedroomed flat, a sleazy landlord, drug-addicted neighbors – not exactly a childhood dream. Jaxxon Carter, barmaid, would like nothing more than to better her current situation. As White women became more socially empowered in the 20th century, medicine became another tool of patriarchy to control them. But the patriarchal establishment used the old argument of hysteria to discredit them and their political activities. By the mid-1800s, early suffragists like Harriet Taylor Mill, whom doctors diagnosed with "nervous disorders,” began to more openly question the patriarchal status quo. Enslaved women of color fared far worse: At best, they were the objects of cruel experiments because White patriarchy had deemed them unable to feel pain. Hippocratic misogyny became entrenched in later European cultural and medical thinking, as suggested by how more "enlightened" doctors from the 18th century still blamed (White) women's physical and emotional pains on reproductive malfunctions. Following in his footsteps, later Greek physicians blamed female illness on "wandering womb.” The author suggests that Hippocrates’ ideas aligned with the prevailing view that women existed solely for the purposes of childbearing/rearing. Hippocrates believed that the uterus controlled women's health. Throughout this illuminating and disturbing survey, Cleghorn argues convincingly that this is because medicine is a patriarchal science. Medical science is notorious for misunderstanding the ailments of female bodies. A feminist historian and cultural critic explores how age-old myths about gender roles and behaviors have shaped the history of medicine.
