Today is V-Day. It's a great day for many but not so great for others. The campaign to end violence against all women, gender expansive people, girls and the planet began with the Vagina Monologues 25 years ago with a call to action launched this day in 2012 by One Billion Rising. 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. Consider this day a continued call to action. Take a stand with us not against us.
"V-Day has unleashed vast grassroots, anti-violence work on college campuses and in communities – visionary work that has been survivor-led and focused, all the while revealing the power of art and activism to change culture and systems. V-Day has inspired women, men and communities all over the world and raised collective consciousness about how violence and gender intersect. The Vagina Monologues and other artistic works curated by V-Day have been performed across the world by local activists, survivors and artists, raising over $120 million dollars for grassroots anti-violence groups, rape crisis centers, domestic violence shelters, and safe houses, shattering taboos and changing the way activists make change in their communities. V-Day’s campaigns include the City of Joy, a revolutionary center for women survivors of gender violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which has graduated over 1900 women leaders; One Billion Rising, the largest mass action to demand an end to violence against women in history; and now, to kick off V25, Voices – an audioplay centered around the voices of Black women across the African Diaspora; and V’s new memoir, #Reckoning."
