Biden facing growing pressure over secretary of defense pick

WASHINGTON – President-elect Joe Biden is facing escalating pressure from competing factions within his own party as he finalizes his choice for secretary of defense. And facing massive governing challenges once he takes office on Jan. 20, Biden can perhaps least afford to lose the backing of the Democratic Party’s fiery progressive base. Nearly 100 House Democrats belong to the Progressive Caucus, which may wield significant influence over Biden's policy agenda as Democrats cling to their narrowest House majority in a century. Flournoy, meanwhile, had been seen as the leading candidate for defense secretary under a Democratic president since Hillary Clinton’s failed 2016 campaign. Biden has promised both to fight for big, bold policy changes and to compromise with Republicans.

Growing up intersex in a country where it is believed to be bad luck

DSD is a condition where a person's sex development involving genes, reproductive organs and hormones is different from other people's. South Africa has enacted laws to protect the rights of intersex persons. This law stipulates that intersex persons be treated as equals, without prejudice in South Africa. In August, for the first time ever, Kenya counted and included intersex persons in its population census, making it the first African country to do so. Intersex persons are discriminated against because society does not have enough public information on intersexuality, says, Dr. David Segal.
