S6 Episode 83: Women's Self Defense in... Jamaica?
Manage episode 339556197 series 2646565
Introduction
Welcome to an all-new season of the Pretty Deadly Podcast. Hosted by Pretty Deadly founder Susie Kahlich and co-host Tavia Benjamin, a Kingston-based poet and the author of "Words Beyond the Page" and "The Social Entrepreneur."
Description
This podcast focuses on the violence that women are subjected to across the world, the different ways we protect ourselves, and teaching self-defense techniques.
Overview
What do the lives of women in Jamaica look like?
When Americans think of Jamaica, do they think of anyone beside Bob Marley? Tavia introduces the strong women-centered culture in Jamaica.
What women go through and how they learn self-defense
Women often wait until after they become the victim of violence to learn self defense - why is that?.
The stigma associated with violence against women
Being a victim of violence has a terrible stigma, no matter how supportive we all say that it's never the victim's fault, and it's still strange to associate stigma with it.
The United States abortion bill
Roe v. Wade, the well-known U.S. court decision that grants women the choice to choose whether to carry a pregnancy to term or terminate it, is currently in the news.
Women’s privilege
Women do have certain privileges that we often overlook.
Women specification
It’s fantastic to argue that women are merely vessels for other people's decisions. I believe it is true not only in terms of abortion and the decision to abort, but also in terms of self-defense.
