Clothesline Project.
The women and social ac-
tion class at CCC is the spon-
sor for the 2015 Clothesline
Project. Individuals of all
gender identities attend this
course at CCC every winter.
Each class creates a new activ-
ist experience for the self, each
other, and the larger North
Coast region.
The Clothesline Project is
a visual display dedicated to
raising awareness about the
reality of violence in society. It
is composed of T-shirts creat-
ed by survivors of violence or
in honor of someone who has
experienced violence.
Each shirt is one survivor’s
testimony of their personal ex-
perience with violence. Some
shirts display fear, anger or
pain, while others show hope

creator and some may include
explicit content: for example,
swear words, explicit violent
or sexual descriptions of the
attack, or other statements that

Parents are asked to discuss
issues with their children prior
to and following the viewing.
The overarching goals of
the Clothesline Project are to
break the silence of violence
and to support and encourage
survivors in their healing pro-
cess and their efforts to help

others understand the horrors
of violence.
While the T-shirts can be

Helpful individuals will be on

feelings.
Clothesline Projects all
over the world remind people
of the real meaning of violence
statistics. The Clothesline
Project originated in Hyannis,
Massachusetts, in 1990 when
members of Cape Cod’s Wom-
en’s Defense Agenda learned
that during the same time
58,000 soldiers were killed in
the Vietnam War; 51,000 U.S.
women were killed by men
who claimed to love them.
