I recently received an email from Sarah Jane, a longtime\u00a0reader, about an art project she is putting together<\/a> to encourage people to see sexual assault survivors as individual\u00a0human beings with full lives. Here is Sarah Jane\u2019s\u00a0email:<\/p>\n

Hi Libby Anne,<\/p>\n

I\u2019m a long-time reader of your blog\u2014although I rarely comment, I\u2019ve been reading faithfully since sometime in 2012. I particularly appreciate your thoughtful critiques of conservative Christianity and purity culture, which did a real number on me and a number of my friends. It\u2019s been helpful to absorb your perspective and envision different ways of thinking about faith, relationships, ethics, & culture. For that, I cannot thank you enough.<\/p>\n

As the subject line warned you, I\u2019m also writing today with a request. I\u2019ve recently begun a participatory art project to empower survivors of sexual assault, of whom I am one. I think it might interest some of your readers, and if you feel it\u2019s appropriate, I would greatly appreciate you sharing\u00a0this interview<\/a>\u00a0about the project in one of your collections of links.<\/p>\n

Thank you again for all you do.<\/p>\n

Peace<\/p>\n

SJ<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You can read the interview Sarah Jane references here<\/a>, and you can learn more about her project here<\/a>. Sarah Jane is asking survivors of sexual assault\u00a0to send her small items that represent themselves and their lives, accompanied by notes explaining the items\u2019 significance, and is putting these objects into glass small glass bottles, each one full of meaning. If you would like to participate, you can learn how to here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
