#speakyourtruth, end sexual violence, kNOw NO, no is a full sentence, sexual assault awareness, teach consent, the elephant in the room

Because April is Sexual Assualt Awareness Month and we need to teach consent.
We had to take a moment to draw attention to hashtag NO MORE and hashtag NSVRC’s call to End Sexual Violence.

This is for the beautiful souls that are brave enough to speak their truth.
May you continue to trek through the trauma and tears with a renewed sense of purpose as you Speak Your Truth.

We BELIEVE SURVIVORS,
YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
I want the world to kNOw: NO is a full sentence.
Does anyone else see the elephant in the room?
Shall I’ll paint the elephant teal to help you feel all the feels?
What must I do to reveal the teal?
MY POEMS ARE NOT POEMS.

I am more than an artist yet I cannot illustrate the words to tell you “healing is the hardest part.”
So I’ll jus’ paint the city teal and immortalize you through my art.

CHANGE HAPPENS HERE!
Recognizing your voice has power is just the start.
