City of Rockford issued the following announcement on April 19.
For the second year in a row, we're asking the community to wear denim and show support for survivors of sexual assault on Wednesday, April 24! Download a Denim Day sign at www.unitedwayrrv.org/denimday and take an individual or group picture to share on social media using #DenimDay #UWDenimDay and #815DenimDay.
The Denim Day campaign was originally triggered by a ruling by the Italian Supreme Court where a rape conviction was overturned because the justices felt that since the victim was wearing tight jeans she must have helped her rapist remove her jeans, thereby implying consent.
Comment and let us know if your workplace is participating!
