ONE BILLION RISING
A global activist movement to end violence against women and girls.
THE RIGHT TO END VIOLENCE
People came together in Times Square, NYC to create a great presence, calling for an end to violence. Then we marched through the city in a single file procession, carrying signs held high, emboldened with messages in black and white:
END MISOGYNY
END RAPE
WE ARE A GREAT FORCE
WHAT WILL WE DO?
TOGETHER
Thank you to all who participated, photographed and helped to create this collective action. WE WILL WALK TOGETHER AGAIN... SAVE THE DATE: MARCH 8, 2013 INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY WILL YOU JOIN US?
WE WILL NOT BE SILENT is an artist/activist collective that has been in existence since 2006. Through the creative use of language embodied on shirts and at times emboldened on signs held up in public spaces, we respond to current social justice issues, encouraging creative, direct public-actions where many people can participate.
