2. Take Back the Night 2011
Fri, April 29, 6:00-9:00 PM
Minneapolis Community and Technical College
1501 Hennepin Ave S, Mpls
Take Back the Night is an annual march and rally to combat sexual violence. Attending means you will not only take a stand against abuse, rape, and sexual assault, but will also show your pride and commitment in/to the Twin Cities community, the atmosphere, and safety. We're taking back the streets. We're taking back the night. We're shattering silence to stop the violence. The event will include a rally complete with free dinner, entertainment, powerful speakers, candlelight vigil, and socializing. We will be marching in protest of sexual violence and standing up for our rights, as humans, to feel safe in our communities.
Speakers include Remy Corso and Ross Neely from the GLBTA Programs Office and Trans Commission, along with Coya Artichoker, Susan Raffo, and Jude Foster! Heidi Barton Stink, Linda Her, and Ashley Gold will be performing! Sponsored by the GLBTA Programs Office. Check out the TBTN Facebook page, or contact twincit...@gmail.com for more information.
