- Bruises, swelling, and other signs of physical abuse can be less visible on Black skin. This invisibility can have devastating consequences: delayed care, lack of protection, and continued violence. Believe survivors. What’s unseen still matters, and awareness can save lives.
- A recent report from Sistah Space suggest that both awareness of and support for Black women experiencing #domesticabuse is severely lacking. Employers have a crucial role to play in supporting their Black employees. Follow our campaign to kickstart important conversations in your organisation.
