Bravo Keira Knightley: This is brutal and shocking but necessary.

 

 

WARNING: This video may be triggering for some viewers.

Bravo Keira Knightley. Bravo.

This remarkable public service advertisement was created by not-for-profit organsiation Women’s Aid in the United Kingdom. Here in Australia, one in three women will be the victim of violence in her life and one in five will be the victim of sexual assault. While this video is brutal and shocking, the reality of family violence deserves greater attention in the community so that we can keep more women safe from harm.

I think its interesting to see celebrities front up these campaigns. We have seen the power it can have with Nigella Lawson. I think its a good thing for women especially because it just shows how deeply embedded this is in our society.
