Scarleteen Superstars: Joey, Karyn, Alice and Sarah
And here's the second part of our volunteer profiles (part one is here) so all of you can better get to know some of the people we're so lucky to have on Team Scarleteen!
Scarleteen Superstars: Ray, Kat, Véronique, Steph and Jacob
Our volunteers are a huge part of Scarleteen, and I call them superstars with very good reason. They're all incredible.
Of SlutWalks, Perfect Storms and Getting Out of the Way
The fact that myself, or Traister or any number of people think errors have been or are being made, or that all of this could be done better or worse doesn't mean we're right. We could be. We could also be wrong. It could be that despite it seeming like this thing or this other way of doing or saying that would have been the better move, that doing a given thing differently would have less impact.
This is What a SlutWalk (Really) Looks Like
Today I want to briefly address the way that the walks have been visually represented in the media and by many bloggers writing about them, especially those who have been nonsupportive or critical.
In a word, they have frequently been represented by photographs which expressly stated or just implied they represent what people at the walks looked like as a whole, and have been anywhere from just incorrect to exceptionally dishonest in those assertions or implications. Because as far as I can tell, the images that keep getting picked aren't those which are most representative of the protests as a whole, but which are most representative of what a given person either found most provocative or most interesting. Or, which best represent their reasons for nonsupport or mockery.
Because yes, it really DOES happen: A thank you to SlutWalks
I want to tell you something very personal about me. Not because I want to. I really don't want to. But I'm going to do it anyway.
