Tomorrow is #DenimDay! Denim Day is a campaign that started in Italy when a rape conviction was overturned because the justices felt that since the victim was wearing tight jeans, she must have helped the person who attacked her remove them, thereby implying consent. The following day, women of the Italian Parliament came to work wearing jeans in solidarity. Since then, wearing jeans on Denim Day has become a symbol of protest against harmful and destructive attitudes about sexual assault. Tomorrow, wear jeans with a purpose!
