They Trespass Her Body Like They Trespass This Land*: On Justice, Remembrance & Healing for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples - Released simultaneously with the 2020 Wisconsin Domestic Violence Homicide Report, this in-depth piece highlights the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit (MMIWG2S) people in an effort to amplify the work of Native communities to meaningfully address the harrowing past and current systemic violence against and attempted erasure of Indigenous bodies, cultures, and experiences. 

This is the nineteenth edition of the Wisconsin Domestic Violence Homicide Report. End Domestic Abuse Wisconsin has been tracking and analyzing all incidents of domestic violence homicide that occurred in Wisconsin since 2000. This report documents fatalities from 2020, and includes a special feature on Justice, Remembrance, & Healing for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples.

In this issue of the Coalition Chronicles, we explore the intersection of ageism and violence, including domestic abuse. We draw attention to ageism because it is one of the “-isms” that is often ignored, yet it is dehumanizing; ageism is embedded in our culture, contributing to a climate in which people across the lifespan are marginalized, and in which violence against them can thrive.

Join us for our 6th Annual Soar Above Gala in support of domestic abuse survivors. This online event will address the grim realities of domestic violence while holding essential space for accessing the joy we collectively need, deserve, and work towards as part of the anti-violence movement.
