#31forRAY: Octobers Emotional Justice campaign engaging men in intimate public conversation re intimate partner violence via letters to Ray Rice: Many men and women excused or defended Ray Rice’s actions. They argued he should not lose his job for what he had done. Some though, argued Rice should absolutely be held responsible for the violence he inflicted. The argument was passionate, painful and would continue to be divided down these two lines. We often hold women responsible for the violence they suffer at the hands of men in the same way society often holds Black men responsible for the violence they suffer at the hands of White police officers. We accuse, we blame, we judge, we question these women. But, we rally around black men. We don’t do the same, with the same consensus about the dignity and rights of Black women. ebony/news-views/what-is-31forray-987#.VCxWUxt0yM_
