Social Justice Symposium: What Were You Wearing? Installation

Description

When survivors of sexual violence disclose their stories, they are often asked, “What were you wearing?” as if their clothing choice determines their consent. The What Were You Wearing? exhibit, an internationally shown survivor art installation, fights back against rape myths by displaying re-creations of the clothing that survivors were wearing when they were assaulted, showing that someone’s clothing does not equate to their consent.
