Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

Hi All,  One of the most powerful and awesome programs
on violence and healing is " A Long Walk Home" which is a
multimedia performance by a group including two sisters.  One who
created a photo exhibit/video of her sister's healing process from sexual
assault.  Salamisha Tillet  was a Penn Undergrad and worked at
the PWC and shares her story of recovery from sexual assault. She and 
her sister is also pursuing graduate studies , so its a good way to
provide some extra $$ support to them as they continue their
degrees.    They were here at Penn,  tufts, and
elsewhere.  It is a very moving and poignant production.  I
highly recommend it!  Here's some info:


"A Long Walk Home"

A Long Walk Home is a multimedia performance that documents the healing
process of a trauma victim to survivor. The show uses poetry, modern and
