This came to me in the process of browsing this morning. An incredibly simple, direct and powerful piece of art relating to the ongoing practice of "rape and retaliate" in the US Armed Forces serving in our various hotspots around the world and very likely here stateside also. This is NOT, as the artist makes clear here, an isolated series of incidents or the acts of "a few bad apples." This is a pervasive, not uncommon, not even unusual state of affairs in the military and all branches do it. Moreover, the DOD (that's Department of Defense for the uninitiated) has known about this for decades and has done effectively NOTHING. Your tax dollars at work, my fellow citizens. No matter what you think of our efforts to "spread democracy" in these parts of the world, no matter what you think of the current Commander In Chief, this should not happen anywhere, to anybody. And with that, I invite you to click on the link below and listen to what "Jen" has to say.
