Unchecked Power, Misogynoir, and the Price of Impunity

Sai’s Newsletter is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

In this episode of The Mind of Sai Marie, we examine how power, control, and institutional cruelty intersect across our current socio-political landscape. Starting with the foundational dynamics of misogynoir—the specific, intersectional anti-Black misogyny conceptualized by scholar Moya Bailey—we trace how systemic violence against Black women acts as a baseline for broader authoritarian control.

Sai analyzes recent judicial precedents surrounding AI-generated CSAM, the bureaucratic erasure of sexual violence in the military through "workers' compensation" designations, and the chilling pattern of impunity protecting high-level predators while restricting bodily autonomy for everyone else.
