Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
A group photograph of students assembled on the steps of Fogler Library, University of Maine, for the 2015 "SlutWalk," calling for an end of victim blaming and 'slut shaming' targets of sexual assault, particularly in regard to the appearance of women rape victims. Signs held by some participants read: "Stop Slut Shaming. End Rape Culture;" "Don't tell us how to dress. Tell men not to rape;" "Shame and Blame belong only to the Rapist;" "Rape is a crime of violence, power, and control. No One Deserves It;" and "Consent in the sheets. Dissent in the streets."
