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.

c. Visual response to the prompt: "How could/did you turn the negative experience that you represented in your previous postcard (A time when you or another woman you know felt/was threatened) into an empowering experience?"
I agree It feels good to know that you are not alone in your healing process and that there are other women who are going through similar experiences that are healing and are getting stronger.
