We've all heard the statistics: 1 in 4 women, 1 in 6 men. 1.3 sexual assaults per minute. 4.7 times more likely of a repeated rape. 13.3% college rape. known attacker. force. coersion. guilt. confusion. fear. anxiety. ...the list goes on.
But what is "rape culture"?
An amazing group of Chicago-based youth and young adults have worked to produce the powerful video you see below. They consult experts, survivors, and their peers to address the question and the reality of rape culture.
How do you define rape culture? What actions are you taking to combat it? How can the Feminist Campus team support your efforts

The Feminist Majority Foundation (FMF) started the Choices Campus Leadership Program to inform young feminists about the very real threats to abortion access, women’s rights, affirmative action, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender rights posed by right-wing extremists.
We work with students on college campuses to effect change at the grassroots, national, and global levels. The Campus Program is built upon FMF’s philosophy that the most effective activism is informed activism--through study and action. Our program provides students with opportunities to learn about timely feminist issues, develop their leadership and organizing skills, and connect with the larger pro-choice and feminist movements.
The Feminist Campus blog is written by staff members, interns, and student affiliates of the Feminist Majority Foundation's campus program. The individual views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the Feminist Majority Foundation.
