Street harassment is wide and rampant in Washington, DC. Don’t believe us? Check out City Paper‘s video on street harassment.

It happens on the bus, the Metro, on your way to work, or when you are enjoying a day out with your loved ones. It happens to women of all colors and creeds and to those who identify as LGBTQ. It can escalate into violence, it can happen in silence. However it happens, you have a right not to encounter it.
