March 8 is #InternationalWomensDay & with the #metoo movement engulfing many people across various industries, the impetus to bring awareness to all these related issues of sexual violence and human trafficking couldn’t be any more timelier.
Last year, I launched the Rogue Hearts Foundation to help bring awareness and support to several issues I feel strongly about.
With #RogueHearts I can tie my regular and create or support special events to help shed light on these causes and do something about it.
On Monday March 12, I am supporting awareness of the #womenilluminatedfilmfestival which is helping to provide women filmmakers a platform to show films relevant to women’s issues.
I hope you can join / support my event: Human Trafficking, sexual violence, #metoo etc - all these causes are related and intertwined in terms of glorifying violence against women. I grew up with 3 brothers. My mom and grandmother took care of us- I don’t have far to look in terms of my support of empowering women.
And doing something about it.
