SlutWalk Guelph Rallies Against Rape Culture, Victim Blaming and Slut Shaming

Submitted by kjohnsto on April 4, 2017 - 1:13pm

Slutwalk Guelph is one of many similar events held across the country to take a stand against rape culture, victim blaming, slut shaming and supporting survivors.  

CSAHS Family Relations and Applied Nutrition professor Dr. Ruth Neustifter spoke to roughly 100 people who turned out to listen to speakers in St. Georges Square before parading with signs throughout Downtown Guelph.  

"When we gain the ability to create change we must look around immediately and use it in the service of those who are still suffering the higher cost and consequences.  We serve the oppressed among us or else we serve our oppressors," Neustifter said.
