There are studies also to show that domestic violence occurs most likely in lower income families. Some studies argue…

Antigone, when initially informing Ismene of Creon’s edict to leave Polyneices unburied, said, “so there you have it and you soon will show/ if you are noble, or fallen from your descent.” In this statement she differentiated between their “descent” from princesses of Thebes, as a result of their father, and actual “fallen”-ness which would occur if Polyneices was left unburied by them. At this point, then, Antigone considered that she and her sister were in a moment of darkness before the…

I had talked in front of crowds of 100 or smaller in the past, but the pressure was different. The associate dean of students was not in the wings listening and my face had never been a front for such a serious topic. On August 25th, 2015 I was one of the primary facilitators for the sexual violence education presentation named “Bear Pact” for the class of 2019. I had the…

The mission of Safe Harbor is dedicated to eliminating domestic violence through prevention, education, and intervention. I really enjoyed the time that I served there doing my 30 hours of volunteer work. They really made me feel needed and welcome by all the staff and clients. I decided, however, that I think I would be capable of a career in this field. Just in the small amount of time that I volunteered there, my heart tells me this is a field of social work that I would love to be in. I…

Within the family itself, there are different relationships between the individual members. A sister and brother have a different connection than two brothers do; a mother and a daughter have a different dynamic than a father and a daughter, and spouses interact differently with one another than they do with their children. Every member of the family brings something…

systemic oppression. “The personal is political” has since etched itself into a slogan, an outcry and a representation for women against the backdrop of systematically-indoctrinated patriarchal society. As appendage to Carol Hanisch’s (1970) paper published in Notes from the Second Year: Women’s Liberation – the personal is political was initialized as an assertive rebuttal against dissenters of women’s conscious-raising groups, downplaying their political merits.
