"RISE FOR FREEDOM! RISE AGAINST FASCISM!"

On this day devoted to hearts and flowers and fairy tales, we rise to observe V-Day, fighting to end violence against women, girls, and Earth Herself. One in every three women and girls worldwide will be beaten or raped in her life.. ONE IN THREE!!! (hence the one billion, one in three of the roughly three billion females when One Billion Rising began).
