The Monument Quilt
TheMonumentQuilt.org
Organized by FORCE: Upsetting Rape Culture, the Monument Quilt is an on-going collection of stories from survivors of rape and abuse.
Written, stitched, and painted onto red fabric, our stories are displayed in city and town centers to create and demand public space to heal.
The quilt resists the popular and narrow narrative of how sexual violence occurs by telling many stories, not one. The quilt builds a new culture where survivors are publicly supported, rather than publicly shamed. |
