Event organized by Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, featuring a large number of shirts decorated by female victims of abuse and rape. Exhibited on August 26th, the 90th anniversary of women gaining the right to vote, this local showing was the 19th annual exhibition of this project in Portland Oregon.
The shirts portray grief, outrage, shattered spirits and incredible resilience in the face of often ongoing abuse and rape; some of the victims were as young as 4 years old.

  • This is a well made video, and I'm so happy to see how many brave women choose to speak up against violence. Whether cathartic or hopeful, the message on each shirt adds to the worth of this project of healing.
