Take Back the Night

I wrote a post a few days ago but then, before posting it, I got involved in some other things. By the time I got back to the computer it was gone--maybe I had accidentally closed it. At any rate, the post was about this year's Take Back the Night. I don't want to try to rewrite what I had written and the experience is not as fresh in my mind. So, I'll be short and to the point. This was the third time I've written about Take Back the Night on this blog. The event is always powerful and should be a wake-up call for all of us who have the privilege of not having to think about gender and sexual violence. I dream about a world in which there is no more Take Back the Night because there is no need for it.
