Our last few strips looked at women’s labor in the US generally as well as in media – and then compared this to how women are portrayed in same. Not pretty is it? (Unless you think naked ladies are pretty. O.K., you might, but that’s not the point.) This one, by Lyra Hill and Anne Elizabeth Moore, gets specific about how perceptions of women as content in comics could contribute to a hostile work environment – one that affects home life, career longevity and, as we’ll see next week, income.
Fundraiser Deadline: Missed
Truthout is one of only a few platforms for justice-oriented, grassroots journalism. Today, as political censorship from the right intensifies, we have no choice but to ask for your help.
We missed our fundraising deadline, but there’s still time to help us meet our basic operating expenses before the end of the month. If you can support Truthout with a one-time or monthly donation, you will make a significant impact on our work. Anything you can do makes a difference — we appreciate your support.
