GENERAL
Sexual assault, domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual abuse and all
forms of sexual violence didn’t stop with
the pandemic, and light still needs to be
shed on the issue. So, after two years of
Zoom because of the pandemic, the annual
Take Back the Night gathering returns —
in person — at the University of Oregon to
again bring the issue of domestic and sexual
violence to the front burner. According to
the website DoSomething.org, 85 percent of
domestic violence victims are women, and
a quarter of women worldwide will experi-
ence domestic or dating violence in their
lifetime. Additionally, half of all homeless
women and children in the United States
are fleeing from domestic violence. Also,
the website notes that boys who witness
domestic violence are twice as likely to
abuse their partners and children when
they become adults. Shine a light on this
issue. Enough is enough.
Take Back the Night 2022 — put together
by the University of Oregon Women’s
Center with the help of many others —
begins at 6 pm Thursday, April 28 with a
rally at the Erb Memorial Union Amphithe-
ater, followed by a 7 pm march through the
UO campus, ending at 8 pm with a Speak
Out against domestic and sexual violence on
the south lawn behind the Knight Library.
