Mary Calvert - LensCulture
This series by Mary Colvert is very powerful. Her focus is to exposes the cultural atrocity of rape and sexual assault within the ranks of the US military. The images speak for themselves and describe the devastation the attacks have on the victims. A narrative at the bottom of each image, give the details of the incident along with the identities of each woman.
I have a special connection, because I spent 22 years in the Navy. I never experienced assault but I was a victim of sexual harassment and have my own nightmare to share. I do believe that many men are predators and they lurk within all of society. Some cultures want to turn a blind eye. When your organization refuses to protect or even validate your complaint, you are certainly to suffer emotional pain that could last a lifetime.
This is my favorite. I can feel her pain.
