In 1979 in response to 12 murders of black women in Boston in the space of three months, the Combahee River Collective (mission statement exerpted here…email brokenbeautifulpress@gmail.com for an educational full copy) created and self-published a document about violence against black women and created a series of creative artistic public demonstrations affirming the right of all women to live. In 2006 in response to verbal, physical and ideological violence against women of color and sex workers and people who have survived sexual assault in Durham North Carolina, UBUNTU in partnership with Men Against Rape Culture (MARC) created and self-published a document on how to support survivors of sexual violence.
