This morning, we started our day off listening to a moving webinar on the domestic violence struggles in the military. In the webinar, women shared their personal stories about how the male figures around them to advantage of them and abused them. We also got to listen to many different women in power in the NC police department and organizations fighting for change give several accounts of victims. The webinar allowed us to have contextualization of the statistics that we learned from the Equal Means Equal film. Also, they discussed the several flaws in North Carolina law, and how reformation is needed right now or domestic violence cases will continue to boom in this state. Later, we will meet with Ms. Paligia to discuss the webinar in further depth.
