23 Abusive Representations

From Rihanna's Bruised Face as Art to Violent Anti-Drug Abuse PSAs

Though we know it is wrong and the media is littered with shocking anti-abuse PSAs, domestic violence is ever-prevalent in our society. Finally, after ten months of silence, pop star Rihanna talks about domestic violence; specifically the abuse she suffered at the hands of her ex-boyfriend. She follows a long line of female celebrities to openly speak about domestic violence.

Click through this cluster to be shocked and disturbed by violent and abusive imagery (some of it sickeningly glamorized) and hope that one day the reality of such representations will be but a memory.
