Holly Kearl Holla's Back on HuffPo!
Check out the incredible op-ed by HOLLAheroine Holly Kearl: here. Holly starts it off:Do you remember when it was legal for a man to make sexually explicit or sexist remarks to a woman at work? I don't. While sexual harassment in the workplace still happens, it became illegal under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 19 years before I was born. Do you remember when it was legal for a man to make sexually explicit or sexist remarks to a woman on the street or at a bus stop? I do. Sexual harassment in public is legal. But it shouldn't be. Street harassment is positioned to be the #1 feminist issue of our generation. Like workplace harassment, the first step to ending street harassment is breaking the silence. Join us and Hollaback! Stay tuned for Holly's Book, "Stop Street Harassment" due to be released in August of this year. |
