Wear Denim on Denim Day
Wednesday, April 22nd
Why
Denim?
Wearing jeans during April is a symbol of protest of harmful attitudes about rape in response to an Italian Supreme Court decision to overturn a rape
conviction because the victim wore jeans. This decision did not
recognize that coercion, threats, and force are a part of the act of rape.
