What were you wearing? A project to end victim-blaming
Trigger warning: These true stories are difficult for anyone to hear, especially victims/survivors of sexual violence.
“What were you wearing?” is one of the most common questions victims of sexual violence endure. It suggests that somehow the victim could have prevented their assault. It is never the victim’s fault. To combat victim-blaming, 360 Communities recently launched a campaign to collect stories from survivors and present them along with the clothes they wore at the time of their assault.
With our “What were you wearing?” project, 360 Communities seeks to dispel the myth that the clothes a person wears can invite sexual violence. We want to shift the focus back to where it belongs: the perpetrator. We asked for victims/survivors of sexual assault to share their experiences anonymously to help us do this.
The stories they submitted are heart-breaking and reflect what the sobering statistics tell us:
Sexual violence is prevalent.
It frequently happens to children.
Most do not report the crime.
We realize that watching this and recalling your assault may be triggering. Please take the time and space you need to process anything you are feeling and practice self-care. If you need support, please call RAINN's National Sexual Assault Hotline available 24/7. 1-800-656-HOPE (4673). If you are in Minnesota, contact 360 Communities' 24/7 Sexual Assault Hotline at (651) 405-1500, or visit 360Communities.org or the Minnesota Coalition Against Sexual Assault (MNCASA) website MNCASA.org for more resources.
Internationally, you can find support in your country with this global directory from No More: https://nomoredirectory.org.
