    The Cycle of Abuse Illustrated Through Single Photos and Multiple Models

    Statistics show that 70% of people who are abused as children will grow up into adults who will in turn abuse children. A recent awareness ad campaign by Mexican organization Save the Children shared this fact in single photographs that are both creative and difficult to stomach.

    The advertisements were originally published back in May 2012, and were created by Mexican agency Y&R and photographer Ale Burset.

    Each one uses five models showing one individual at different stages of life. In the foreground, the individual is experiencing abuse as a child. Older versions of the abused child grow up as they walk across the background of the frame, and turn into the original abuser by the time they walk a full circle.

    “70% of abused children turn into abusive adults. Donate at savethechildren.mx,” the advertisements say.

    Why isn't New Orleans Mother's Day parade shooting a 'national tragedy'? →

    supbreaux:

    “Now take a moment and imagine a Mother’s Day Parade in the suburbs of Denver, a neighborhood in Edina or a plaza in Austin where bullets rain down on civilians and even hit children. I can’t help but imagine the around-the-clock news coverage. And I can’t help but think it’s because most of America can identify with the fear of being bombarded with gunfire while just enjoying a parade in the middle of town. But America can’t identify with being at a parade in the “inner city” where “gang violence” erupts. The “oh my God, that could happen to me” factor isn’t present with a story about New Orleans or the Chicago southside.” 

    I didn’t even hear about it ONCE on the news, that is saying something.

    Why is a chronic illness shitty?

    Because it is chronic, not lethal.You have to live through it, find a way to cope everyday, work out how to do as much as you can to make life meaningful….without tipping over your body into meltdown.

    We get better days, but it is still chronic. It doesn’t leave, it just stays with us in a variety of strengths. You don’t know how your body is going to handle tomorrow.

Sara Grace Watts has been missing since Monday, May 13th, from Victoria BC. She was last seen boarding a bc ferry on said day; perhaps heading for Kitchener Ontario. Call the Saanich Police Department at 250-475-4321 if you have any information to share. 
Grace is in my grade, I have had many classes with her. I have never been so profoundly affected by a missing person’s report. I suppose it cuts more deeply when it concerns someone you know. Please repost—especially Canadian bloggers.

    "Wearing a hijab isn’t inherently liberating – but neither is baring one’s breasts. What is liberating is being able to choose either of these things. It’s pretty ludicrous to think that oppression is somehow proportional to how covered or uncovered someone’s body is. Both sides of this argument present a shallow understanding of women’s empowerment, which only drowns out the substantive challenges facing all women – issues that cannot be encapsulated in a debate about a piece of fabric."

    Holy shit, I cannot even attempt to do spoken word when there are people out there creating things like this.

    “To JK Rowling, from Cho Chang” by Rachel Rostad

    “To J.K. Rowling, from Cho Chang:

    When you put me in your books billions of Asian girls across American rejoiced. Finally, a potential Halloween costume that wasn’t a geisha or Mulan. I mean what’s not to love about me. I’m everybody’s favorite character. I totally get to fight tons of death eaters and have a great sense of humor and am full of complex emotions.

    Oh wait, that’s the version of Harry Potter where I’m not fucking worthless!  First of all, you put me in Ravenclaw. Of course, the only Asian at Hogwarts would be put in the nerdy house. Too bad that you didn’t have a house that specialized in computers and math and karate, huh?

    I know, you thought you were being tolerant. Between me, Dean, and the Igyaan twins, Hogwarts has, like, five brown people. It doesn’t matter we’re all minor characters. Nah, you’re not racist! Just like how you’re not homophobic because Dumbledore is totally gay! Of course, it’s not mentioned in the books, but man, hasn’t society come so far. Now gays don’t just have to be closeted in real life, they can even be closeted fictionally!

    Ms. Rowling, let’s talk about my name. Cho, Chang. Cho and Chang are both last names. They are both Korean last names. I am supposed to be Chinese! Me being named Cho Chang is like a Frenchman being named Garcia Sanchez. So thank you, thank you for giving me no heritage. Thank you for giving me a name as generic as a ninja costume, as chopstick hair ornaments. Ms. Rowling, I know you’re just the latest participant in a long tradition of turning Asian women into a tragic fetish.

    Madame Butterfly: a Japanese women falls in love with a White soldier, is abandoned, kills herself. Miss Saigon: Vietnamese women falls in love with a White soldier, is abandoned, kills herself. Memoirs of a Geisha, Lucy Liu in Thunder, schoolgirl porn. 

    So let me cry over boys more than I speak. Let me fulfill your diversity quota. Just one more brown girl mourning her white hero. No wonder Harry Potter’s got Yellow Fever. We can go behind small hands and ‘No speak Engrish.’ What else could a man see in me? What else could I be, but what you make me. Subordinate. Submissive. Subplot!

    Go ahead, tell me I’m overreacting. Ignore the fact that your books have sold over 400 million copies worldwide. I am plastered across movies screens of best-selling caricature. 

    Last summer, I met a boy who spoke like rain against windows. He had his father’s blue eyes. He pressed his wrists against mine and say he was too pale. That my skin was so much more beautiful. To him, I was pacific sunset. All men’s milk, a porcelain cup. When he left me, I told myself I should have seen it coming. I wasn’t sure I was sad, but I cried anyway. Girls who look like me are supposed to cry over boys who look like him! I’ve seen all the movies and read all the books!

    We, were just following the plot.”

    "When you watch Torchwood there is a warning at the very beginning that some scenes may offend or disturb people, so if you allow your children to sit and watch it with you that’s your responsibility, it’s not ours anymore. We kissed, we held each other, we lay on top of each other in bed… and there were lots of complaints about that. Nobody complained that I was shot in the head four times, there were burning people in ovens, that I was stabbed by a mob of 50 people hundreds of times, and I was hanging dripping my blood in a pit. So that’s what confuses me, because you’re not complaining about gay sex, you’re complaining about two men kissing. And it’s 2011. And people say, “Well why should we have that on television?” Because the BBC have to represent the greater public — and there are gay people out there who pay their television license. For people to complain, that’s your prerogative — but you know what, none of them turned it off! They were just embarrassed because it put them in a position where they had to explain things to their kids or their family which probably should have been explained a long time ago."
