    Freedom from sexual assault is a basic human right.  Yet tens of millions of Americans –- our family and friends, colleagues, neighbors, and classmates –- carry the trauma of sexual assault with them.  National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month is an important time to speak out, stand with courageous survivors, and finally change the culture that has allowed sexual violence to exist for far too long.     Sexual violence affects all people, regardless of geography, race, age, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or economic background.  One in four women and 1 in 26 men have survived a…

There is a lot of pro-Putin bias in the Western world. We aim to dispel this “macho” propaganda and reveal true colors of his regime: murder, intimidation, industrialized kleptocracy and well-funded russian fascism propaganda machines. We were born in Russia, we have lost friends to this murderer… we see how he “zombifies” most and intimidates and beats down the rest. We also know where his weak spots are and what atrocities his regime is committing on a daily basis. Message from the source channel owner.

     This month, we honor the over 2 million children of our service members and veterans, whose support and sacrifice help keep our military strong and our Nation secure.  These young Americans already understand what it means to serve, shouldering the unique demands of military life with courage and tenacity.      Whenever the First Lady and I meet with military children, we are amazed by their strength and selflessness.  Most of these young patriots uproot their lives every few years — starting at new schools, making new friends, and learning new cultures and customs in different corners of the country…

     More than 400,000 Americans in every corner of our country are alive today thanks to the tremendous generosity and courage of organ donors.  During National Donate Life Month, we honor donors and their families who have turned pain into purpose by sharing the gift of life with loved ones in need or countless others whom they have never met.  We encourage everyone to follow their lead and register as an organ, eye, tissue, or bone marrow donor, bringing hope and healing to so many others.      Last year, American doctors completed our Nation’s one-millionth organ transplant, a…

     Cancer has touched nearly every American family, and it remains the second leading cause of death in the United States.  During National Cancer Control Month, we call on all Americans to join our movement to end cancer as we know it.  By raising awareness of the risk factors, promoting life-saving regular screenings, investing in research, and expanding access to affordable treatment, we can give patients, survivors, and their families the hope and new beginnings they deserve.      We have made enormous progress in the half-century since our country first declared war on cancer.  We have learned it is not a…

    The field of public health is grounded in the fundamental truth that we are all in this together — that our health is connected and we are stronger as a Nation when we work together to lift everyone’s well-being.  During National Public Health Week, we celebrate the life-saving work that our public health professionals do to keep Americans healthy and safe.      All of America has seen the importance of public health during the past 3 years.  The pandemic shut down our businesses, closed our schools, and robbed us of so much, including the lives of over one…
