December 6


December 6 is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women in Canada. I believe that these ribbons have appeared around campus to comemorate that day and the "sad anniversary of the death of fourteen young women who were tragically killed on December 6, 1989 at l'École Polytechnique de Montréal because of their gender."

This is not something to be forgotten. Nor is it a case where apathy should get the better of us. As a reminder of what is being done and what has yet to be done today's link is for the White Ribbon Campaign.
