America's First Memorial to Survivors of Sexual Violence Will Be in MN
By Almanac
Boom Island Park in Minneapolis will be the site of a memorial to honor survivors of sexual violence. Organizers say it is the first of its type in the United States.
In the words of the organizers, the memorial's goal is to "let survivors know that our community believes them, supports them and stands with them."
The driving force behind the memorial is Sarah Super, a survivor of sexual violence who started the group "Break the Silence."
