Rape survivor - Heather Corinna - has turned her terrible experience into something positive and set up a support group for fellow survivors. But it is the “I was raped” shirts which people were talking about. Designed to try and break down the stigma many people is attached to this crime. I will let Heather explain;
 # Because wearing it lets others know that they aren’t alone.
# Because wearing it invites conversation about a silenced experience that so many women and men share.
# Because rape is a crime that someone did to you, against your will.
# Because, as Maya Angelou says, “I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it.”
# Because you shouldn’t be ashamed that you were raped; the perpetrator should be ashamed.
# Because being public shatters the very silence that enables rape to be so common.
# Because naming what has happened is the first step toward changing the reality of rape.
# Because legal redress is rarely served, so it’s crucial to find our own justice and acknowledgment.
