Wear Red on April 30, 2008 to End Sexual Assault Against Women of Color
April 28, 2008
Women of Color Keeping A Social Movement Alive
On Wednesday, April 30, 2008, women of color across the United States will wear red to:
- commemorate Sexual Assault Awareness Month;
- to represent the various forms of violence that women of color experience on a daily basis; and
- to show how all forms of violence against women of color are interconnected.
Following is another moving video created and produced by my Sistren, at Document the Silence, who organized the first Be Bold. Be Brave. Wear Red. Campaign in October 2007, during Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Their life sustaining and affirming work is kindred Sister to NO! The Rape Documentary.
After April 30, 2008, the organizers of this national campaign want to flood the web with images of red. Please email your pictures and links to your videos to beboldbered@gmail.com.
