Women who defend themself against rapist and abuser should not be imprisoned! The justice system is so skewed to men, even violent men, it's beyond belief ! Free Susan Brown!

They steamrolled her and over charged her. Women have a right to protect themselves, despite the man-dominated justice system essentially saying we must take the abuse or else be punished.

Throughout history women have been punished for defending themselves against their abusers while those same abusers received slaps on the wrist or were able to walk away numerous times. This is a huge miscarriage of justice.

No one should be punished for defending themselves especially not a pregnant mother.

That she was convicted of 1st degree murder is an injustice at the highest level.

Black women are the most disrespected group in this country. Would a white woman have received the same sentence? Of course not!

This is another case of punishment for a Black woman who was protecting herself and her baby, a shameful practice that has dark history in the USA

A mother should never be jailed for saving her own life so she can protect her children!

Self defense should not be punishable in this way. The misogyny runs deep in these systems. Time to change that

Defending yourself against an abuser should end with prison time. Release Ms. Brown!

Susan Brown never should have been arrested in the first place. The fact that she has spent so long being unable to hold her own children is nightmarish. She saved her life and her unborn child’s.

This country doesn’t take domestic violence against women seriously and in particular Black women are neglected and unprotected. People who do far worse than her see less time. The intentional inequities in our justice system are pervasive. This is a probable fact. Free this woman!
