Powerful, honest rape awareness video from RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) – anything I say (other than to hat-tip my good internet buddy sara_l_r, on whose blog I first saw it) will only detract and distract.
I knew him.

/ March 7, 2012Simple, honest, and powerful. The truth is powerful. I hope both women and men become more aware of how this can happen – exactly as stated and shown in the video – between anyone. Too often you hear about this realization happening too late. The cases I know of date rape were between “friends” and didn’t even go reported. It was just wrong, and then dealt with, then people moved on…but it shouldn’t have happened at all.
