Hello, Connections! Welcome back to my weekly columnĀ #ATHCOriginal #AskATHC. Today, I want to discuss a rather controversial topicā€”#Women.

#UnitedShowbiz #Gender #eqyality #Education #womenempowerment #TedTalk #Inspiration #Movies
Last week, I discussedĀ #ContentWriting, but today's topic is different. Before going further, I want to declare outright that I am not a feminist or atheist. I am just a pragmatic, who sees a glass & water as two distinct things rather than seeing it half-empty or half full.
World has moved forward. Girls have gone to space! But culture, religion, ethics, & social evils continue to haunt girls worldwide. I don't want to talk about India, you've plenty of cases where women face atrocities almost every single day here. #RuralIndia #WomenLifeFreedom

The fundamental purpose of government in America - to protect the rights & freedoms of all citizens & prevent any one group from monopolizing #power & #wealth we supply.

Together we stand, divided we fall, & we are falling.

In "Y" we trust.
(CONSEQUENCES is everyone's meduim)
It is our collective Capabilities & resources that sustain our government, yet we are seeing a growing number of individuals who seek to manipulate with technology & control our Capabilities for their own (incompetent unimaginative) gains, at the cost of humanities.
We must work to maintain a government that truly serves "WE THE PEOPLE" & not become a kleptocracy / oligarchy where a select few highly corrupt hoard power & wealth at the expense of the masses.
