SlutWalk exists to condemn a victim-blaming culture, to empower victims and survivors of sexual violence and to promote the respect and involvement of the community to keep its members safe. Sexual assault is NEVER justified and victims are NEVER at fault. Our name is intentionally subversive and intended to call out the punishment of sexual agency in our society. We are here to challenge the victim-blaming mentality in the media and in popular culture. We recognize that sexual violence impacts every facet of our community across lines of race, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status and spirituality. Everyone has the right to be safe. T his is a come-as-you-are, whoever-you-are event. It is open to men and women, survivors and allies. We do not advocate that anyone dress in a specific way, but seek only to spread the message that rape has nothing to do with what a person is wearing. We encourage and invite individuals, institutions and businesses to be responsible for the well-being of our city and to join us.
