Denim Day - Rain Site

MiddSafe advocates will provide an interactive opportunity to reflect on the importance of consent and stand in solidarity with those who have faced sexual violence.

Denim Day is a protest against erroneous and destructive attitudes about sexual assault, inspired by an Italian supreme court decision to blame a survivor of sexual violence for harm committed due to wearing tight fitting jeans.
