http://www.clotheslineproject.org/ " The Clothesline
Project (CLP) is a program started on Cape Cod, MA, in 1990 to address
the issue of violence against women. It is a vehicle for women affected
by violence to express their emotions by decorating a shirt. They then
hang the shirt on a clothesline to be viewed by others as testimony to
the problem of violence against women."
http://www.jmu.edu/womensresource/TBTN.shtml "Take Back the Night continues the effort to end violence against women. Musical performances set the tone for two speakers who bring their own personal insights about various forms of violence. A speak-out follows which provides a supportive environment for those survivors and secondary-survivors that choose to share their experiences. After the speak-out, the participants carry candles and march through campus breaking the silence and making their voices heard. This is an experience that you will never forget! "
