I participated in a great event this Sunday called Slutwalk. It's a march to end victim blaming in cases of sexual assault and rape. The name is controversial and needs some explanation. I created a video to do that. I also recorded a video of the speech I gave after the march. I'm proud of both. I'm also going to post a bunch of links for anyone interested in the subject. I wish I had some photos to show, but I was really busy that day. Thank you for taking the time to look through any of these links. 1 in 3 women in the United States will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime. This has been a largely quiet and misunderstood epidemic, but that ends now. Help shatter the silence and stop the violence!

Excellent! Thanks for speaking out!
It's sad that in this day and age, people still blame the victim. But great that people are speaking out more and more to change this.
