#SexualAssaultAwarenessMonth April is Sexual Assa

#SexualAssaultAwarenessMonth

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, a month that strives to be a voice of the victims of sexual abuse and violence. The mission is to increase awareness about sexual violence worldwide and educate communities on how to prevent it.

But how do we prevent and educate communities when rape culture continues to be prevalent and sexual violence against women is still normalized and excused?

The mere presence of the #24April is #NationalRapeDay is a perfect example of this.

How do we as a society change #rapeculture?

Be wary of the TikTok trend involving April 24th

Be wary of the TikTok trend involving April 24th

The newest rumour on TikTok is a disgrace and we call on the social media platform to act now to stop it!

According to Newsweek, trolls are trying to make this day a viral trend. A group of men have declared April 24th a national day for carrying out rape and sexual assault.

It is not yet sure if this rumoured trend or movement was intended to be a joke or not. Regardless of its intention, it is deplorable.

Actress and radio host, @philicityreeken, who was a victim of sexual assault, weighed in on the rumoured trend.

"This is absolutely disgusting. We as women experience so much crime against us and now we must also experience something like this. If it is a joke or not, it's awful."

#24April is #NationalRapeDay

I am sure many users of the famous social media platform Tiktok have seen the #24April is #NationalRapeDay trending.

TikTok users are saying a group of men has declared April 24 a “national day” for carrying out sexual assault and rape. Multiple users have made videos to make others aware of the possible threat, however, there has been no evidence of videos that encourage a “National Rape Day,” that actually exists.

Regardless of whether the warnings are true or false, Rape is not a game, it is not a joke and it is not something that should be taken lightly. We therefore ask our community to #SayNoToRape and report any videos, tweets or statuses that support this initiative.

Hate crimes committed against lesbians and gay men have been commonplace in Manenberg, and gangs like Hard Livings and the Americans have been instrumental in assaulting the gay men and lesbians, leaving a trail of blood and pain behind them, warned Leslie van Rooyen, director of the NGO @Youth4ChangeGlobal.⠀
