"Take Back the Night: The History and Legacy of Sexual Assault Awareness Month" will be from 11:30-12:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 11, via Zoom.
The goal of this presentation is to provide participants with a broad understanding of the historical development and trajectory of the Sexual Assault Awareness Month movement. There will be particular emphasis placed on the intersections of race and sexual violence awareness activism and on the role of women of color who led the movement. Participants will learn about how the movement is recognized today and about contemporary challenges in sexual assault awareness and response.
