Let us come together as a community; make a statement to end violence against women.
Please invite your friends to this evening of reflection, unity, and community building. Let us keep working at addressing all forms of violence against women and violence in our community. Let’s name the harms of sexism, heterosexism, and colonization’s impacts on all of our bodies and support each other in our own experiences past and at present. Come out and TAKE BACK THE NIGHT on OCTOBER 28, 7-9PM in the Agora of Lakehead University!
