Join the revolution.
You, me and 1 billion more.
ONE BILLION RISING IS:A global strike
An invitation to dance
A call to men and women to refuse to participate
in the status quo until rape and rape culture ends
An act of solidarity, demonstrating to women the commonality
An act of solidarity, demonstrating to women the commonality
of their struggles and their power in numbers
A refusal to accept violence against women and girls as a given
A new time and a new way of being
A refusal to accept violence against women and girls as a given
A new time and a new way of being

I rise for the many men and women
who cannot rise and dance.
Today I became part of the revolution of
women and men who will WALK OUT, DANCE, RISE UP,
and DEMAND an end to violence
against women and girls on 2.14.13.
Won't you dance with me?
February 14, 2013.
Will you join me?

I am rising because when women rise,
a whole and healing Earth rises with us.
