I know this is just a vlog, but I need to use whatever attention this post gets to say something that matters.
Women in our country are scared.
Our sisters, our friends, our partners, our mothers. Women are having to think about whether they’re safe going out, getting home, being alone, trusting someone. Families are worried about whether the women they love are going to make it home safely.
And as men, we cannot keep watching this happen and acting like it has nothing to do with us.
It starts with us.
Having the uncomfortable conversations. Calling out our friends. Correcting our brothers. Refusing to stay quiet when another man says or does something that contributes to a culture that makes women feel unsafe.
And our police and institutions need to do their part too. Women who ask for help deserve to be heard, protected and taken seriously.
But beyond what happens today, we need to think about the generation of men coming after us.
We have to teach younger men differently. We have to show them a different example. We have to change the conversations happening between men so that the same cycle isn’t passed down generation after generation.
Awareness posts don’t always reach everyone, so I’m going to use the descriptions of the things I post to keep talking about this.
If you’re a man reading this, please don’t scroll past and think this conversation is for somebody else.
It starts with us. 🇿🇦
