United States: femicide has no place in public debate

United States femicide has no place in public debate

In the United States, a woman dies every five hours at the hands of her partner or ex-partner. The FBI did the counts in 2021… that year, there were almost 1,700 victims of marital femicide. Calculated for the same population, that remains three times more than in France. Constantly increasing figures. However, the word “feminicide” remains completely absent from the American public debate.
