These women married for love, or custom, or because they didn't have a choice.

All accuse their husbands of rape - and it's legal in India.

Five years ago today, my friend & Washington Post Opinions writer Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by agents of Saudi Arabia.

For today's paper, I wrote about a disturbing TIME party held in the aftermath of his murder--which taught me how cruel U.S. media can be.

Language is a form of resistance—and therefore can threaten authoritarians, who manipulate language to distort reality and erase inconvenient truths. Little wonder that Hong Kong authorities are now targeting Cantonese. On the shut down of KongHub:

In post-Dobbs America, some girls can travel hours to get an abortion; some can't. This is the story of one of them.

She was raped. The nearest abortion was nine hours away. Now, she's a mom. Soon, she'll start seventh grade.

In Hong Kong’s Stanley Prison, Jimmy Lai spends 23 hours a day in solitary confinement. For an hour each day, he’s allowed to walk alone around a 5 by 10 meter cage in the sun. This is torture. apnews.com/article/hong-k…
