These postcards were created by women survivors of gender-based violence/hatred and others who are concerned with women’s oppression. The postcards are visual representations of lived experiences and serve to more accurately depict the empowering and disempowering experiences of women. By displaying women’s personal stories in public space, I intend to politicize women’s personal and raise awareness of women's issues in an attempt to stop acts of gender-based violence/hatred.

Week 3
Visual response to the prompt: "A time when you defied a negative gender-based stereotype"
I hope that more and more women are realizing the importance/necessity of being able to support their selves, rather than relying on a man for support.
I also feel that it is important to get a good education and be able to support yourself. There are no guarantees in life, that man with all that money may lose his job.
