Review for Hollaback!, Brooklyn, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Hollaback! is an absolutely essential key in the burgeoning movement to end street harassment. Everyone has the right to feel safe and sexy in public, and the daily reality for most women means experiencing harassment, intimidation, and even fear from men on the street. Hollaback! is revolutionizing the way men and women think about street harassment, and empowering individuals to speak out and hollaback! Street harassment is at one end of a spectrum of violence against women, and it should not be tolerated by anyone. Getting involved with Hollaback! is an amazing way to join that fight.
