MEDUSA
The mascot of our branding is more than just a greek myth. She was a sexual assault survivor who became a symbol of female power.
MANIFESTO
We intend to use fashion as a tool for empowering victims of sexual assult, providing awareness to the general public about the issue, and condemning anyone who expresses support of or indifference to rape and rape culture. As college students and as women, we are working to create a world in which no one experiences sexual violence. We believe that in our world and our country, far too many women have been assaulted and far too many men are assaulters. Medusa serves as our logo and a symbol for those working towards our cause.
This cause is especially relevant to us now because this year, freshman and sophmore year college students face especially high rates of sexual assult.
Our beliefs are built on the principles that every woman has the right to be safe from sexual violemve regardless of if she is in the comfort of her home or walking a street alone. We also believe that sexual harassment and assult is inexcusable, and that every rapist should be incarcerated. We demand all figures of authority, both political and professional, make clear that sexual assult is illegal and unacceptable, that they commit to finding and prosecuting all rapists. We commit to using our project and our platform to persue these ideas and create a world free of sexual assult.
