Always good to see you Ellen.
Not to minimize male bloggers who do so. At all. But maybe since I am a woman I feel an even stronger desire to get the word out on the horror of honor killings.
Honor killing are unimaginable to someone as myself who lives free to choose.
Something that should not exist in this day in age. Absolutely mind blowing they are carried out in the 21st century. I weep for the women and girls who face death at the hands of their own families.
The STOP HONORCIDE! campaign was launched on Mother’s Day 2008. The goal of the campaign is to prosecute honorcides to the fullest extent of the law. We want honorcide to be classified as a hate crime and we advocate for every existing hate crime legislation to be amended to include honorcide.
