silence is the most deadly thing

[threeplusfire]

I'm Amanda. I'm a survivor of sexual violence. No pity, no shame, no silence.

You don't have to say anything. In fact, don't say anything to me. Go out and say something to the people who think it's okay to treat others like shit, to the people who think rape stats are inflated, and to the people who think we just have it coming. For god's sake say something to people like me so they don't have to live with years of silence and fear and shame.
