This is Rose Valland, one of the heroes of Nazi-Occupied France. An employee of the Louvre, she kept records of the art stolen by Nazi officers—what was taken, from where, and by whom. She was instrumental in the postwar return of countless stolen pieces, and one of the most decorated women in French history.
April 27. Incapable of living with people, of speaking. Complete immersion in myself, thinking of myself. Apathetic, witless, fearful. I have nothing to say to anyone - never.

***MAJOR trigger warning: rape for video***
New Zealand campaign “Who Are You?” video highlights importance of bystander intervention to prevent rape.
This is really arresting.
Rape prevention ad at it’s finest.
If you feel that something is wrong, if you suspect something, speak up!
Wow, strong. Good.
Why doesn’t the US have ads like this? WE NEED THEM
This was a REALLY well done ad. Please note there are a few seconds of flashing lights though if you’d like to watch it.
I am really quite impressed with this. And No victim blaming throughout!
Hey sexy, nice tits. Whoa, why are you so upset? It’s a compliment. I’m only being nice to you, you stupid bitch.
