Say No To Rape

Cassy June 2, 2020

As she sat there in the corner, she tried to recollect what had just happened. ‘Uncle touched me few days ago, he held me by my waist and I told him to stop and he did. But uncle just defiled me few minutes ago, look at my blood, he didn’t stop this time, he didn’t feel remorseful, I’m in so much pains, ‘she said to herself…

‘Should I tell mummy? Will she believe me? She comes back late everyday, I don’t think she’d believe me, should I tell Daddy? I think he’d beat me for saying such rubbish, I can’t tell anyone besides Uncle said he’d kill me if I said a word, ‘she said as she cried.

Should I tell Mummy?

>I am Overwhelmed. I can’t believe it’s 2020 and we still deal with things like this. I am trying to not think about this whole thing because it triggers emotions, emotions buried but on the news, on social media, everywhere, I am seeing these hash tags and at the same time while I feel sorry for the victims, i’m sad.

The world has been a mess lately. Kobe Bryant passing, the pandemic, lives lost due to the pandemic, black lives being disregarded, police brutality and rape. Who taught men that it’s okay to force themselves on a woman’s body without her consent?. Who told this men who hurt and rape women that it makes them manly? Who taught these men that society allows this rubbish?. Why isn’t the law standing its ground against these wicked acts? So many questions, it’s exhausting!

So where do we go from here? Where does the black man go from here? When will he be allowed to be totally free? When will men stop raping women? When will trigger happy officers stop? When will it all end? I cannot even imagine the pains these various families are going through.

I pray the world heals. We can do better. I pray it all gets better. I pray the laws start being effective. I pray for change and peace.🕊️
