Sensible preoccupation with COVID19 news & info made for fewer items in the group message thread than usual, so we decided to take the opportunity for asking/collecting links of women’s news sources our many terrific diarists and team-effort collaborators consider best. We’ll re-edit commented ones into the diary with attribution to the commenter, so readers can bookmark individual sites or the diary itself. This diary is a team effort: special thanks to TASW & elenacarlena.

<big><big><big>How to make your items/links in our weekly group message thread more POWERFUL in the shared effort:</big></big></big>To make a copyable link right in the group message thread, so the diarist can just copy it straight into the diary —instead of having to click to the webpage you already went to, and copy the URL you already copied, and copy what you already typed into the group message thread— SIMPLY ENCLOSE enclose in square brackets the URL/link and the wording you want for it, doesn’t matter which comes first, as long as there’s no blank space between either bracket symbol and the characters right next to it, and it doesn’t even matter which comes first, e.g., you type and paste into the kosmail/message:
<big> [Women’s eNews.org https://womensenews.org]
or
[https://womensenews.org Women’s eNews.org]
and it’ll show likethis:
Women's eNews.org</big>

Finally, as you all know, summarizing is not my strong suit. Therefore, below the jump are a bunch of largish news items in no particular order:
This Week in the War On Women provides a weekly summary of news on women's issues and information on current political actions. We welcome all who are interested to join, to write for us, and to provide relevant links and stories. |
