Happy Birthday


There is something that happens
when people come together
for the same reason,
to speak over something until they are
walking over it instead of under it.

Nothing gives me
that skin raising feeling
like taking back the power,
together.

So go with me, to Violence Unsilenced
and celebrate one year
of truths told
and voices
unleashed.

Of redemption and bravery
and the telling and the hearing,
all in one safe place.
where people have taken their day
to stand over it,
Unsilenced.

Really, you aren't going to want to miss this VU anniversary video. I mean, Maggie does the best little head-bobbing dance at the beginning. You don't want to miss that, now do you?
