"Outcry" Poetry Series Honoring Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month 2011
Date/Time:
04/01/2011 (All day) to 04/30/2011 (All day)
Description:
The poems in this series are about finding oneself after sexual trauma, finding one’s power and voice. The first person a victim speaks to after a sexual assault occurs is called the “outcry witness”- that’s the second reason for the title. An outcry is what the author is literally trying to raise in written form. An outcry of anger, an outcry of disgust, an outcry of protest saying that we refuse to allow this kind of violence to take place anymore.
