Step Out, Step Up – Men Against Violence march 10/13

Sexual Assault, rape, domestic violence and hate crimes committed against the LGBTQ community, are predominantly committed by men in this society.

This is the message of the march that the local chapter of NOW and the Bloom Collective want to communicate this Thursday. Here is what the facebook page for this event says:

“Walk with us to support an end to violence. We’ll meet at Rosa Parks Circle, walk to the parking area behind the arena where a member of the LGBT community was assaulted this summer, stop at Tini Bikinis, and end at YWCA, with speakers at each location.

We’ll look at how gender roles play a part in the problem of violence in our society by focusing on the most common perpetrators, men.”

People are encouraged to bring signs and invite male friends to get them to take a stand against male perpetrated violence.
