Tabata Amaral: At the root of this fear is a word we took too long to say out loud: misogyny, the hatred of women simply for being women.
Tabata Amaral: And it does not start with violence. It starts much earlier and it starts in an organized way.
Today there is a true industry of hate that operates on the networks, that captures very young boys and teaches them, day after day, to see women as enemies, as objects, as guilty.
Tabata Amaral: And what is born on a screen does not die there; it turns into humiliation, into harassment, into threats, into murder, until it reaches that brutal limit we are seeing: women who leave home and never return.
Tabata Amaral: Calling this by the name misogyny, which is hatred of women, is a fundamental act of protection that a society must offer to all of us, starting with the youngest: admitting that this thing has shape, is concrete, has a motivation and must be punished, must be confronted.
