Dear Destroyers, Every week, another death. Yesterday two women are reported to have died in violent circumstances. It was just a few months ago that Destroy the Joint launched its campaign to make a memorial to the deaths of each and every woman who has died as a result of violence in Australia this year. Please like this post as a small way of acknowledging these deaths. The figure this year is now 54. Thats 54 women to our knowledge whove died as a result of violence since January 1 this year. There have been reports this morning of another death and we will keep you posted. As ever, we rely on the help of our community. You can email countingdeadwomen@gmail or send us a private Facebook message through this page. Today and forever, we remember them.
