A Reminder that today is National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. Novemeber 15-December 16th are the 16 days of Activism Against Gender Violence.
I’d like to take a moment to remind everyone how important this is to me as I was randomly attacked and sexually assaulted when I was 19 years old by a man who simply wanted power over a woman. He chose someone whom he thought would be the easiest target. One who wouldn’t fight back. Fortunately, he was wrong.
Take me as an example of someone who’s been a victim and survivor of gender violence and sexual assault.
