Abuse is everywhere.

Revelations about domestic abuse continue to “shock” Washington DC and beyond. But let’s be real, this is not limited to white, powerful men. Domestic violence is common. Domestic violence is pervasive. Domestic violence impacts every race, gender, class, sexual orientation, and education level.

This is not an attempt to take down powerful, prominent men. It is a wake-up call to the prevalence of domestic violence. Abuse is everywhere and until we address it openly and honestly, these types of stories will continue to “shock” us.

Do not let this current story be about one man and one government position. We are all affected. Use the stories that gain attention to elevate awareness. #survivorspeaks #domesticviolence #domesticabuse
