I’ve been reading the book, Letters from a war zone authored
by Andrea Dworkin published in 1993. It offers a collection of powerful
writings and speeches fighting for the rights of women in the 1970’s and
1980’s. Andre offers a raw but eye-opening view from the trenches of women
suffering violent sexual crimes.
She was in the frontlines of this battle fighting the porn
industry and societal proponents of such propaganda. The book made my heartache
but I am glad it found its way into my life. Andre was extremely courageous in
her fight; she spoke to the courts, congress, colleges all over America and
outside of the country and any other organization that would listen to her
pleas. She was passionate about making the world better for other women and
because of her legacy and the others who fought this cause we are better for it
today!
She left a magnificent body of work that continues to impact
the world in a great way, I hope, one day, I too can impact others in a similar
way.
What are you reading today? What was the last book you
finished? Make it a point to learn the stories of others; we can learn so much
from these testimonies. They can inspire and offer strength if you’re open to
it.
