Mix Mistress Alice💄<p>Today I received written proof of the blatant unawareness towards marginalised patients from a Catalonia's public health's CAP. Regardless of a patient's past behaviours, victim blaming is not good medical practice. I'll keep the details of my medical ventures in this province to myself but I have the certitude that each will be written chronologically if I survive recovery days. Many recallings of harsh experiences already has being written or briefly told to friends and very few 'public servants' in various ways. Carla Antonelli will most likely be the first woman at which I'll send the first manuscript.</p><p><a href="https://todon.eu/tags/LifeExperiences" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LifeExperiences</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/Catalonia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Catalonia</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/PublicHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PublicHealth</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/ExpertIncognizance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ExpertIncognizance</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/PostponedCare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PostponedCare</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/Incarceration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Incarceration</span></a><br><a href="https://todon.eu/tags/PTSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PTSD</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/SexualAbuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SexualAbuse</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/survivor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>survivor</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/ignorance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ignorance</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/MedicalDiscrimination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MedicalDiscrimination</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/HospitalClinic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HospitalClinic</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/MedicalNeglect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MedicalNeglect</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/restrains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>restrains</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/PsychiatricSurvivorPride" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PsychiatricSurvivorPride</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/InstitutionalisedPrejudice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InstitutionalisedPrejudice</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/WaitingList" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaitingList</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/RightToDataAccess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RightToDataAccess</span></a><br><a href="https://todon.eu/tags/DataDeletion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DataDeletion</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/CareDenial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CareDenial</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/NonConsentingProbe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NonConsentingProbe</span></a><br><a href="https://todon.eu/tags/ReadThisStatistSpy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ReadThisStatistSpy</span></a>: <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/VictimBlaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VictimBlaming</span></a> is <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/MedicalViolence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MedicalViolence</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 20, 2000: Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin, formerly known as H. Rap Brown, was arrested for murdering a Georgia sheriff’s deputy. Al-Amin had been a member of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and the Black Panthers. He once said that “violence is as American as cherry pie.” Al-Amin denied shooting the deputy. His fingerprints were not found on the murder weapon. He had no gunshot wounds, though officers who were present at the shootout claimed that the suspect had been hit and wounded. Another man, Otis Jackson, later confessed to being the shooter, but the authorities have repeatedly denied Al-Amin’s requests for a retrial. He is now serving a life sentence. He had been at Florence supermax, under a gag order preventing interviews with journalists. In 2014, he was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. He is now at the U.S. Penitentiary, Tucson. In April 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear his appeal from al-Amin.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/blackpanthers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blackpanthers</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sncc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sncc</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HRapBrown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HRapBrown</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>prison</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cancer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journalism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/incarceration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>incarceration</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SuperMax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SuperMax</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wrongfulconviction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wrongfulconviction</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>racism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackMastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackMastadon</span></a></p>
