Denim Day April 30th
Patriots, a student, has been working hard to raise awareness of an important topic that isn’t talked about enough. Sexual assault. April is sexual assault awareness month, and you may have seen the posters and slides on the TVs. Every last Wednesday of April is known as denim day and people show support for survivors by wearing jeans, jean shorts, and jean jackets. Denim day comes from a court case in 1999 where a rape conviction was overturned by a supreme court that said because the victim was wearing tight jeans, she must have helped take them off. In protest to that, protesters showed up on the steps of the supreme court wearing jeans.
So if you want to show support to survivors on April 30th, please wear either jeans, jean shorts or jean jackets. We will also be handing out stickers in Jefferson square.
