From Politics To Keeping Your Hair Game Strong, Be Part Of Some Cool Forums Ladies
Blank Noise
Calling themselves a community of Action Heroes, their goal is to completely do away with sexual and gender-based violence. Tackling heavy issues like rape culture, misogyny, harassment on the streets and victim blame, they’re all about starting a revolution. Often organising public interventions to deal with these issues head-on, Blank Noise is all about actions being louder than words. Some of their projects include Meet To Sleep, where women come sleep in public parks to make a statement about how they must be able to live defenselessly, and I Never Ask For It, which is where women come together bringing the clothes they wore when they were sexually harassed or mistreated, to take a stand against victim shaming.
