The New York Times is reporting the high rates of gender-based violence suffered by Native American women, and the confusion over jurisdiction, and the problem of low reporting.

What would a world without sexual violence look like?
Can you get to Durham, NC on April 28th? If so, join the Creating a World without Sexual Violence: National Day of Truthtelling” event !
Does your school teach Organizing for Change?
I am a student at Georgetown Law where Professor Mari Matsuda teaches a class in Organizing for Social Change based on the Direct Action Organizing model laid out by the Midwest Academy. Lucky students in that seminar get to spend the semester learning and PRACTICING Organizing for Social Change. If your school has a project based course on organizing let us know! A number of undergraduate and graduate schools do have similar project based organizing courses. Organizing to combat sexual violence is great work and sometimes you can even get course credit for it.
Training for CUNY students
I’m so excited about the May 5th training we are doing for students of the City University of New York! It’s going to be an amazing, empowering day. We’re going to cover lots of good stuff, from understanding a school policy, to building a movement for change. Sign up already!
Download our posters!
Call me cheap, but I thought $9.95 was a little steep for our posters. It’s the best price for the quality I could find from print-on-demand printers, but I wanted to provide another option for students who want to plaster their campus with anti-violence messages.
So now you can download our posters for $3!
For $3, we grant you license to print or copy enough posters for your campus or event (Great for Take Back the Night!). We can’t let you alter, sell, or distribute them to another campus though. We need the $3!
If you want a poster already very nicely printed, you can still order one here.
