Available for over a year

Following the murder of a Japanese woman at carnival in Trinidad and Tobago, the mayor of Port of Spain said “women have a responsibility to ensure they are not abused during the Carnival season.” Thousands of people signed an online petition calling for his resignation. Attillah Springer organised a protest calling for the same thing. She spoke to BBC Trending about why she felt moved to do something. Produced by Emma Wilson and Anisa Subedar.
