Last week, the Haven Project held Take Back the Night, its annual event to raise awareness of sexual assault and to show support for survivors.

The day included the release of a , a video in which Haven Project peer educators gave a voice to survivors by sharing their anonymously submitted stories.

Evening activities included chalking messages of support throughout the Oak Grove, followed by the lighting of luminarias, with each of the 1,783 lights representing an 亚色影库 student impacted by sexual violence. White bags on the lights represented members of the transgender, gender queer, and gender non-conforming community; purple bags represented women; and teal bags represented men.

The evening closed with words of support: “We see you. We hear you. We believe you. We support you.”

A student looks at an assortment of colorful T-shirts hanging on two clotheslines in front of her, with trees and a building in the background. Alize Woodard, a sophomore Communications Media major, looked at submissions to the Clothesline Project, a display of T-shirts designed by victims of violence. The Clothesline Project was started in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in 1990 as a vehicle for women affected by violence to express their emotions and as a means of raising awareness of the issue.

Colorful T-shirts with messages and designs hang on two clotheslines running close to parallel in the Oak Grove, with a corner of Waller Hall’s porch, display tables, and people standing and talking to one another in the background. A light-blue T-shirt decorated with tears streaming from two large eyes is prominent in the foreground.T-shirts designed by victims of violence were displayed as part of the Clothesline Project. The project’s purpose is to increase awareness of the impact of violence, to honor survivors’ strength to continue, and to give them another way to break the silence that often surrounds their experience.
