24 Tampons That Send A Powerful Political Message
The charity RISE have revealed that female asylum seekers in detention around Australia don’t have acceptable access to tampons.
RISE claim women are forced to queue for these vital products, and are only given one or two at a time.
Feminist group Destroy the Joint decided to do something about this humiliating treatment, and called on their followers to send the government a message. Using tampons and pads, of course.
