It’s about knowing how to take care of yourself to avoid ever having to tell a story like this…
“I tried to leave but he was so much stronger than I was,” says Abby, a rape survivor. “He was much bigger than I was. I tried going out the fire escape because it was on the 3rd floor and I tried to leave the bedroom door. I just couldn’t get out.”
Abby says she was raped during the Mifflin Street block party last year. The path she took to find herself in danger is one that sometimes can be avoided if you know how to guard your safety.
