And a person all too familiar with ankle injuries, Golden State Warriors star \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcsportsbayarea.com/nba/golden-state-warriors/steph-curry-draymond-green-jordan-poole-wizards/1800922/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Steph Curry,\u003c/a> returned to the lineup from his most recent ankle-related stint on the injured reserve to drop 24 points in a win against the Washington Wizards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The athletes remind us that injuries and setbacks are part of the game. For voters, it’s the issues, candidate choices and lack of progress that are also part of the proverbial game. And just like injuries, they can be difficult to deal with — defeating, even. But if you don’t get up, stretch and continue to put work in, progress will never come.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Another said he makes 14¢ an hour. Some teachers who lead programs don’t get paid at all. One person said he appreciates the structure employment brings, and noted that no matter how little it pays, any type of program or job is beneficial when it’s time to ask for parole.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some people were happy that\u003ca href=\"https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/regulations/wp-content/uploads/sites/171/2024/04/Inmate-Pay_Approval.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> the CDCR raised pay rates for incarcerated laborers in April\u003c/a>, an increase from 32¢-37¢ an hour to 64¢-74¢ an hour. (The cover of July’s print edition of \u003cem>The San Quentin News\u003c/em> had a story about one negative impact of the pay raise: less jobs.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the past, I interviewed a woman who repaired the industrial-sized laundry dryers at the California Institution for Women in Chino while incarcerated.

Some jobs are underpaid, and some don’t pay at all. But legally, every able-bodied person is supposed to work. It’s written in the state’s constitution as a form of “involuntary servitude” — or, as many see it: slavery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This fall, if passed by voters, Prop. 6 would amend the state’s constitution to no longer require people who are incarcerated to work. Finally, 160 years after President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, we have the opportunity to put an end to a direct remnant of this country’s most inhumane system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How did we get here?

California is \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_6,_Remove_Involuntary_Servitude_as_Punishment_for_Crime_Amendment_(2024)#Support\">one of eight states\u003c/a> where involuntary servitude is still a legal form of punishment for a crime.

Burnett got into California politics on the tail end of the Gold Rush, after leaving Oregon, where he was also politically involved. While in Oregon, he helped the state legislature establish \u003ca href=\"https://sos.oregon.gov/archives/exhibits/black-history/Pages/context/slavery.aspx#:~:text=The%20Oregon%20Lash%20Law&text=The%20next%20year%2C%20Peter%20Burnett,the%20slaves%20would%20be%20freed.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a lash law\u003c/a>, which required people of African descent to leave the state or else face punishment in the form of whippings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“(Burnett) wanted to create a white-only west,” says Briley, adding that Burnett also advocated for California’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11905371/california-celebrates-its-history-as-a-free-state-but-there-was-slavery-here\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fugitive Slave Law\u003c/a>, which put Black residents who’d escaped slavery at high risk of being sent back to Southern slave states. The underlying ambition of the law, Briley says, was to keep this new state’s Black population to a minimum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1852, the same year California passed its Fugitive Slave Law, the state also established its first mainland prison, San Quentin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a direct correlation between slavery and mass incarceration,” notes Briley. And so — aiming to abolish not just the language but the practice — “that’s at the core of our mission: dismantling the entire prison industrial complex.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='arts_13926813']While the Fugitive Slave Law expired after three years, the state of California’s constitution still allowed for involuntary servitude, which stands to this day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mere allowance for involuntary servitude isn’t the only issue. The enforcement of involuntary servitude is problematic, too. This is outlined in California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation’s (CDCR) \u003ca href=\"https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/penal-code/pen-sect-2700/#:~:text=The%20Department%20of%20Corrections%20shall,of%20the%20Director%20of%20Corrections.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Penal Code 2700\u003c/a>, which dictates that every able-bodied incarcerated person must work. Whether waylaid by sickness, grief or other serious issues, people behind bars in this state must work or else face \u003ca href=\"https://www.shouselaw.com/ca/blog/cdcr-form-115-discipline-report/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a Form 115 discipline report\u003c/a>, a write-up added to their record, potentially resulting in a longer prison sentence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re not only trying to change the constitution, we’re not focused on symbolism,” says Lawrence Cox, during the same video call. Cox is the Regional Advocacy and Organizing Associate with the social justice nonprofit \u003ca href=\"https://prisonerswithchildren.org/about-aouon/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">All of Us or None\u003c/a>, an organization working “to create an airtight solution that prevents the exploitation of individuals who are incarcerated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The larger goal, Cox adds, is to separate the prison industrial complex from the rehabilitative apparatus of corrections. Which is significant to the CDCR, as \u003ca href=\"http://www.allgov.com/usa/ca/departments/independent-agencies/department_of_corrections_and_rehabilitation?agencyid=223\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the organization made it a point to add “rehabilitation” to their title in 2004\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rehab is about autonomy,” says Cox, adding that “healing from the traumas that may have caused individuals to commit the crimes that they’ve committed… has nothing to do with forced slavery.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13962773\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13962773\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/230726-SAN-QUENTIN-MHN-01-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Quentin State Prison in San Quentin on July 26, 2023.

Oh, yes — and this is the most important part — despite having incredibly derpy faces, the oarfish are said to be predictors of earthquakes, and prophets of death and mayhem and mortal danger to all our lives**.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[**This is also a lie.]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The earthquake theory posits that because oarfish live so close to the bottom of the ocean, they can sense when seismic activity is afoot, and rush to the surface in a panic. (Kind of like the way San Franciscans all run around looking for a table to hide under when we get those \u003ca href=\"https://www.shakealert.org/\">Shake Alert texts\u003c/a>.) According to some corners of the internet, multiple oarfish were spotted in Japan before the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, and a couple of oarfish washed ashore in the Philippines before a 6.6 earthquake in 2017. Which thoroughly suggests that when human bystanders see an oarfish, it definitely means that we’re all going to die.***\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[***Another lie.]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If, like me, you are incapable of staying calm in the face of these harbingers of doom, try and find comfort in the fact that apparently, oarfish also showed up in California in 2013, 2014 and 2015 without major catastrophe befalling us all.

The audience rapped along bar for bar. Kendrick then brought out his former TDE label-mates Jay Rock, Ab-Soul and ScHoolboy Q for hit songs like “Money Trees” and “Collard Greens.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then it was time for the mega-hit song of the summer, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6eK-2OQtew\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Not Like Us\u003c/a>.” Having grown from a Drake diss to a party anthem, “Not Like Us” is now part of the lexicon. “Sometimes you gotta pop out and show niggas” is the mantra for 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the song, and the event as a whole, Kendrick’s goal wasn’t solely to tarnish Drake’s reputation for speaking foul on the West Coast. Kendrick accomplished that handily by running back “Not Like Us” not once, not twice, but instead performing it five times in a row. His true aim went much higher: to use the region’s animosity of one man to unify the notoriously splintered communities of Southern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='arts_13912853']“This shit making me emotional,” said Kendrick to the crowd, as a growing number of performers and professional athletes came on stage toward the end of the show. “We been fucked up since Nipsey died… we been fucked up since Kobe died.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As people got into place for a group photo, Kendrick, wearing a red hoodie, glasses and a red Dodgers cap, continued to speak to the audience. “We done lost a lot of homies to this music shit, a lot of homies to this street shit. And for all of us to be on stage together, unity, from each side of muthafuckin’ L.A. — crips, bloods, pirus — that shit is special, man.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All this at the Forum in Inglewood, where Kobe and Shaq carried on the legacy of the Showtime Lakers that Kareem and Magic created. A place where superstars like Prince and Whitney Houston gave legendary performances. And now, a historic showing of Black Los Angeles culture.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.jackturban.com/\">Dr. Jack Turban\u003c/a>, one of the nation’s most respected authorities on transgender youth, nearly missed this calling and became a dermatologist. A gay son of a strongly unaccepting father, he took the tried-and-true path of trying to win family love through perfection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a lot of pressure to become a dermatologist in medical school,” he tells me via video interview. “People don’t realize that it’s considered a very prestigious thing. I think I also had ‘best little gay boy in the world syndrome’ — like where you grow up thinking this thing is so bad and wrong that you should be perfect in every other way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turban’s ideas about his career prospects began to shift on a trip to Europe, as a part of a piece he was writing for \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> on trans kids. “That trip changed everything,” he says. “It was the moment for me when it went from being this intellectualized discussion to the real-life kid in front of you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turban saw the vast difference between the kids who were being affirmed and those who weren’t. After consulting with some colleagues and doing a child psychiatry rotation, he knew his future was working with transgender children and not, as he puts it, rolling mice to their tanning beds. [aside postid='arts_13926077']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of the work that Turban has done since then as a researcher and an advocate now culminates in the release of his first book, \u003ca href=\"https://www.harvard.com/book/free_to_be/\">\u003cem>Free to Be: Understanding Kids & Gender Identity\u003c/em>\u003c/a> (out June 4 via Simon & Schuster). Written specifically for parents — although also a wonderful read for anyone who wants to be more educated about the current political debates around trans people — the book is a readable, engaging and accessible introduction to the basics of what it means to be a transgender child, and the many options open to those who wish to transition. Turban admirably engages a lot of the misinformation circulating about this heavily marginalized demographic, and grounds research in firsthand stories from his own clinical work with kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turban has spent much of his career in the \u003ca href=\"https://transcare.ucsf.edu/\">UCSF Gender Clinic\u003c/a>, one of the nation’s leading clinics serving transgender minors. During our interview, he noted that some states where he considered setting down roots — including Tennessee — have outlawed such care, meaning that if he had followed that path, his career would have been brought to an untimely halt by Republican legislators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s scary to think,” he says. [aside postid='arts_13957070']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to serving trans kids as a medical provider, Turban has also produced a substantial body of research. One of his frequently cited papers found that when trans youth want puberty blockers and don’t have access to them, it is correlated with a substantial increase in suicidality across their entire lifespan, even if they later are able to get gender-affirming care as an adult. Among other things, this paper demonstrated how letting trans kids go through their natal puberty was not a neutral act, and could in fact have serious consequences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another paper of his found that those who realized their gender identity in childhood tended to wait over a decade before disclosing it to anyone. Turban believes that these findings help dispel one of the most widely promulgated myths about trans kids, that of so-called rapid onset gender dysphoria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rapid onset gender dysphoria is just the thing that will not die,” he tells me. “This whole notion that when parents find out is when kids realized for the first time is clearly false. It’s heartbreaking that they have to wait so long before they even feel safe telling the people who are supposed to be the safest to talk to.” [aside postid='arts_13955066']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turban shares his findings in ways that are vivid and easy to digest, which makes \u003cem>Free to Be\u003c/em> so valuable. Among other important topics, Turban examines in detail the ill-fated attempts to find a “cause” for being trans (theories include bad mothering, mental illness among mothers and sexual abuse). As Turban notes, these have all been discredited, and he presents strong evidence that transness is likely biological in nature. This would accord with the experience of the vast majority of trans people, and it would also explain why attempts at conversion therapy have been such abject failures.

As Turban notes, Wolfson has long argued that “born this way” might have played some role for the gay rights movement, but that the bigger gains were made when straight Americans interacted with gay ones as the latter became increasingly visible throughout society.

Turban ends up following Sam through an adolescence in which they choose not to intervene in their puberty, instead addressing their trans identity simply through things like clothing and haircuts. This episode gives the lie to prevailing myths about trans kids — that they are too young and naive to know what they want for their own bodies, and that maintaining a trans identity and a social transition will inevitably lead to medical interventions.

A gay son of a strongly unaccepting father, he took the tried-and-true path of trying to win family love through perfection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a lot of pressure to become a dermatologist in medical school,” he tells me via video interview. “People don’t realize that it’s considered a very prestigious thing. I think I also had ‘best little gay boy in the world syndrome’ — like where you grow up thinking this thing is so bad and wrong that you should be perfect in every other way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turban’s ideas about his career prospects began to shift on a trip to Europe, as a part of a piece he was writing for \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> on trans kids. “That trip changed everything,” he says. “It was the moment for me when it went from being this intellectualized discussion to the real-life kid in front of you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turban saw the vast difference between the kids who were being affirmed and those who weren’t. After consulting with some colleagues and doing a child psychiatry rotation, he knew his future was working with transgender children and not, as he puts it, rolling mice to their tanning beds. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Written specifically for parents — although also a wonderful read for anyone who wants to be more educated about the current political debates around trans people — the book is a readable, engaging and accessible introduction to the basics of what it means to be a transgender child, and the many options open to those who wish to transition. Turban admirably engages a lot of the misinformation circulating about this heavily marginalized demographic, and grounds research in firsthand stories from his own clinical work with kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

One of his frequently cited papers found that when trans youth want puberty blockers and don’t have access to them, it is correlated with a substantial increase in suicidality across their entire lifespan, even if they later are able to get gender-affirming care as an adult. Among other things, this paper demonstrated how letting trans kids go through their natal puberty was not a neutral act, and could in fact have serious consequences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another paper of his found that those who realized their gender identity in childhood tended to wait over a decade before disclosing it to anyone. Turban believes that these findings help dispel one of the most widely promulgated myths about trans kids, that of so-called rapid onset gender dysphoria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rapid onset gender dysphoria is just the thing that will not die,” he tells me. “This whole notion that when parents find out is when kids realized for the first time is clearly false. It’s heartbreaking that they have to wait so long before they even feel safe telling the people who are supposed to be the safest to talk to.” \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Among other important topics, Turban examines in detail the ill-fated attempts to find a “cause” for being trans (theories include bad mothering, mental illness among mothers and sexual abuse).

This would accord with the experience of the vast majority of trans people, and it would also explain why attempts at conversion therapy have been such abject failures.

At least once a week for the last 29 years to be precise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I know the exact date of the first time I said it — Oct. 3, 1995 — because that was the day that O.J. Simpson was acquitted of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman. O.J. was acquitted by a jury despite a mountain of DNA evidence against him and an extremely long, well-documented history of his abuse of Nicole. The images of her battered face and the sound of her shaking voice telling a 911 dispatcher “He’s going to beat the shit out of me” have been living rent-free in my head ever since. \u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-13882786\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/07/Rae-Alexandra-KQED_180_final.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"180\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/07/Rae-Alexandra-KQED_180_final.jpg 180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/07/Rae-Alexandra-KQED_180_final-160x176.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was in my teens when the O.J. verdict happened. \u003ca href=\"https://vawnet.org/material/marital-rape-new-research-and-directions#:~:text=On%20July%205%2C%201993%2C%20marital,rape%20prosecution%20granted%20to%20husbands.\">Raping your spouse had only been declared illegal\u003c/a> in America two years earlier. At the time, I hoped that — if women banded together and worked hard enough — things would change in my lifetime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, I’m middle-aged now. And nothing has changed at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“America does not care about women” were the first words I uttered this morning, this time prompted by the news that New York’s highest court just overturned Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 rape conviction. The ruling was based on the fact that “testimony of uncharged, alleged prior sexual acts against persons other than the complainants” was included in his original trial. That the inclusion of those witnesses — also known as “\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/29/800938076/how-the-molineux-rule-permits-certain-witnesses-in-the-harvey-weinstein-trial\">Molineux witnesses\u003c/a>” or “prior bad act witnesses” — has been perfectly legal in New York for well over a century appears to have been deemed irrelevant by four out of the seven judges on the New York Court of Appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(Writing for the majority, Judge Jenny Rivera asserted that “The remedy for these egregious errors is a new trial.” Rivera, incidentally, was appointed to the court in 2013 by \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2024/01/26/cuomo-sexual-harassment-doj-00138140#:~:text=The%20justice%20department%20found%20Cuomo,harassed%2C%E2%80%9D%20the%20DOJ%20concluded.\">Andrew Cuomo, who has been accused of sexual harassment by 13 women\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13934462']The fact that the vast majority of Harvey Weinstein’s accusers — more than 80 of them — were prevented from taking legal action against him in 2020 because of unjustly short statutes of limitations doesn’t matter either. Because America doesn’t care about women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In truth, even on the morning of his 2020 conviction, I still found myself uttering those words. Because while Weinstein was convicted of third-degree rape and first-degree criminal sexual act, those were only two of the five charges that he had faced. The wave of relief that followed his two convictions was powerful enough to obscure the fact that he was found not guilty on three other charges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein was found not guilty of first-degree rape, defined in the state of New York as “engag[ing] in sexual intercourse with another person by forcible compulsion.” This, despite Jessica Mann’s harrowing testimony that, “The more I fought, the angrier he got.” He was also found not guilty of two counts of predatory sexual assault. Annabella Sciorra appeared in court specifically in support of those charges, testifying that she was raped by Weinstein after he forced his way into her apartment. “I was punching, I was kicking him, I was trying to take him away from me,” she said. But still, he was found not guilty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein’s case, from the jump, reflected just how hard it is for women to get justice in this country. But we already knew, just as we had known in 1995, America does not care about women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13908728']We knew it in 2021, after \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/bill-cosby-conviction-overturned-5c073fb64bc5df4d7b99ee7fadddbe5a\">Bill Cosby was released\u003c/a> from prison on a technicality. Specifically, Pennsylvania’s highest court decided it wasn’t fair that the prosecutor who brought the case against Cosby had a predecessor who had promised to not charge the comedian. That was apparently too much for the court. The idea that 60 women who’d been living with untold trauma and interrupted careers would receive no justice after sharing their harrowing (and very credible) stories about Cosby with the whole world? Meh. Who cares about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice, when it comes to women, sometimes feels almost impossible to come by in any court in the land. In 2004, Robert Blake was acquitted of murdering his wife Bonny Bakley, despite two separate witnesses testifying that Blake had attempted to hire them to kill her. Blake, like O.J. Simpson, was later found liable for the wrongful death of his wife in a $30 million civil trial; Blake handled this by declaring bankruptcy in 2006. Hell, if O.J. Simpson could get away with not paying the Brown and Goldman families, why should Blake cough up?

The ruling was based on the fact that “testimony of uncharged, alleged prior sexual acts against persons other than the complainants” was included in his original trial. That the inclusion of those witnesses — also known as “\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/29/800938076/how-the-molineux-rule-permits-certain-witnesses-in-the-harvey-weinstein-trial\">Molineux witnesses\u003c/a>” or “prior bad act witnesses” — has been perfectly legal in New York for well over a century appears to have been deemed irrelevant by four out of the seven judges on the New York Court of Appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(Writing for the majority, Judge Jenny Rivera asserted that “The remedy for these egregious errors is a new trial.” Rivera, incidentally, was appointed to the court in 2013 by \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2024/01/26/cuomo-sexual-harassment-doj-00138140#:~:text=The%20justice%20department%20found%20Cuomo,harassed%2C%E2%80%9D%20the%20DOJ%20concluded.\">Andrew Cuomo, who has been accused of sexual harassment by 13 women\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Because America doesn’t care about women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In truth, even on the morning of his 2020 conviction, I still found myself uttering those words. Because while Weinstein was convicted of third-degree rape and first-degree criminal sexual act, those were only two of the five charges that he had faced. The wave of relief that followed his two convictions was powerful enough to obscure the fact that he was found not guilty on three other charges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein was found not guilty of first-degree rape, defined in the state of New York as “engag[ing] in sexual intercourse with another person by forcible compulsion.” This, despite Jessica Mann’s harrowing testimony that, “The more I fought, the angrier he got.” He was also found not guilty of two counts of predatory sexual assault. Annabella Sciorra appeared in court specifically in support of those charges, testifying that she was raped by Weinstein after he forced his way into her apartment. “I was punching, I was kicking him, I was trying to take him away from me,” she said. But still, he was found not guilty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein’s case, from the jump, reflected just how hard it is for women to get justice in this country. But we already knew, just as we had known in 1995, America does not care about women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Specifically, Pennsylvania’s highest court decided it wasn’t fair that the prosecutor who brought the case against Cosby had a predecessor who had promised to not charge the comedian. That was apparently too much for the court. The idea that 60 women who’d been living with untold trauma and interrupted careers would receive no justice after sharing their harrowing (and very credible) stories about Cosby with the whole world? Meh. Who cares about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice, when it comes to women, sometimes feels almost impossible to come by in any court in the land. In 2004, Robert Blake was acquitted of murdering his wife Bonny Bakley, despite two separate witnesses testifying that Blake had attempted to hire them to kill her. Blake, like O.J. Simpson, was later found liable for the wrongful death of his wife in a $30 million civil trial; Blake handled this by declaring bankruptcy in 2006. Hell, if O.J. Simpson could get away with not paying the Brown and Goldman families, why should Blake cough up?
